Seventh Veil--Rubber America

Seventh Veil--Rubber America (1998/Warped) Rating--7.0

A band of many faces, as it mixes a dirty distortion with a bluesy grunge sound at times, performs raw tracks in the vein of an L.A. Guns, and also shows light sprinkles of the psychodelic.
"6000 years" is a bass- heavy slow pulse, and begins the roller-coaster ride in fine fashion. Some of the heavier points include the bottom-ended drive of "Hero," the chunking riff of "F.L.S.," a heavy-handed approach to "Ramses," and "Train to Memphis," with its absolutely infectious groove chug.
A nice rhythm moves "Mr. Rightman," and the punchy "Joyride" stands out as well.
A little patience at the end of the disc will reveal an unexpected hidden track--something named along the lines of "Take a Little Piece"-- which has a nice slow drive to it.
In all, a group with adapts well to numerous styles. The talent is definitely there; it should only improve with time.
