gay witch abortion - opportunistic smokescreen behavior

the twin cities is always overflowing with awesome bands that seem to fly under the radar to most music critics and fans.....but you certainly can't ignore the scene there when a release as LOUD and VITRIOLIC as the new lp by GAY WITCH ABORTION drops in to the bins at yr local record shop..... their new album OPPORTUNISTIC SMOKESCREEN BEHAVIOR out on LEARNING CURVE RECORDS is just the kinda of SLUDGY NOISE ROCK BLAST you need in your life right now.......

GAY WITCH ABORTION mixes and matches some of the best HEAVY ROCKIN' INFLUENCES OF THE PAST THIRTY YEARS INTO ONE HELLUVA FUCKING EAR SPLITTING SPEAKER BUSTING NOISE ROCK EPIC.......  imagine HAMMERHEAD, MELVINS, THE COWS and ALL THOSE OTHER AWESOME SOMEWHAT FORGOTTEN AMREP BANDS smashed into JESUS LIZARD and the other classic TOUCH & GO bands, THEN TURN UP THE VOLUME TIL EVERYTHING SOUNDS BLOWN OUT AND ABOUT TO CATCH FIRE......... gay witch abortion don't just borrow from that spurt of beloved 90s aggro rock though, they yank plenty of noise mongering moves from their LOAD RECORD contemporaries LIGHTNING BOLT and CLOCKCLEANER and predecessors such as ARAB ON RADAR and HARRY PUSSY......

OPPORTUNISTIC SMOKESCREEN BEHAVIOR is the perfect mix of GUTTER SLUDGE RIFFING, PSYCH ROCK MIND FUCKS and NOISE ROCK BOUNDARY BUSTING EXPLORATIONS......  since most of the aforementioned labels (touch and go, amrep, skin graft and load) are dead or very inactive, it's a relief that a band like GAY WITCH ABORTION is willing to take up the bloody sewage soaked irreverent flag of NOISE ROCK and WAVE IT IN THE FACES OF THE COMPLACENT ROCK KIDS.........

OPPORTUNISTIC SMOKESCREEN BEHAVIOR IS THE SLAP IN THE FACE THAT WE ALL NEED TO WAKE UP AND FUCKING GET GOING........ there's no need for bland quiet rock n roll...............
