MAZOZMA - Stark Joy LP New Zealand Just as Hank Williams inspired

Just as Hank Williams inspired an army of sound-alikes

Instead he beefs things and takes a full-band approach on Big Bad Luv

But it SOUNDS in no way like a band giving up

but there's plenty of enjoyable moments here amongst the Krautrock experimentation and it's interesting enough to keep us wanting the next release

MAZOZMA - Stark Joy LP New Zealand Just as Hank Williams inspiredHighly recommended. "There is something very special about the sound of a bummed out smart person alone in a room somewhere (studio or not) with just their guitar for solace. Many killer examples of the form exist Skip Spence's Oar (1969), Pip Proud's Adrenaline And Richard (1968), Roy Montgomery's 324 E. 13th Street #7 (1999), and so on. All of these records shine with very special darkness. To this list, I submit the new Mazozma LP, Stark Joy.
