A
furnace blast of motorcycle punk from this gang of Boston rabblerousers.
Wild Zero (named after a Japanese zombie flick starring Guitar
Wolf) consists of ex-Humanoids howler Clay N’ Ferno upfront, and a
bunch of other tightly-wound dudes who are probably ex-somethings, too. To
be honest, I wouldn’t be surprised if the floorboards under the Wild Zero
rehearsal space weren’t stuffed with the wormy corpses of ex-bandmates who
were getting a little too soft for these punk n’ roll bruisers. After all,
the chorus on opener “Battle Royale” goes “This is how I
killed my best friend!” But it’s not all Japanese splatter flicks and
revving, cycle-psycho guitars, there’s a real wild beast throb to these
tunes, and Clay – when he’s not belting the shit out full-tilt boogie –
even injects some honest to Christ melody into his vocals.
Only a little bit, though. Because melody is mostly for pussies.
