Following up their debut cassette "We're All Pink On The Inside" (Cult Maternal, 2009) with a slight bout of re-instrumentation proved a resoundingly good idea for Tampa's BODY ROT. Now armed with a real drummer (I am told that the drum machine used on "Pink" has malfunctioned indefinitely) and one each completely novice keyboardist and guitarist, the group is more hook-concious but somehow simultaneously more unrelenting and dilapidated. No sooner is a hook established than it crumbles into a noisy game of catch-up due to the ensemble's inexperience with their instruments. Regardless, they have the courage of their strange, usually sexual/anatomical convictions, and that is frankly enough to sell it and makes this a great little EP. The male/female vocal tradeoffs work well, and the songs are genuinely catchy. Not-all-that-apt comparisons have been drawn to SICK LIPSTICK and MEN'S RECOVERY PROJECT - probably just because both of those bands utilize keyboards. This tape stands on its own merits. Unfortunately, a lack of lyric sheet seems to be standard for VINYL RITE's tapes - my Witches cassette doesn't even come equipped with a tracklisting. This release has been sold out from the label for a little while, but a few distros have copies, and you can hear it HERE.
Those inclined to ignore good things for bad reasons may note that CULT RITUAL's most notorious panty-thief mans the keyboard helm in this unit. Whatever gets you to check out this worthy release.
