Bombay Show Pig – Baby It’s A Face

Bombay Show Pig – Baby It’s A Face
Self released – 2010
Rock, Stoner, Indie, Noise, Punk, Garage
Rated: ***

2012 will see the release of their first full-sized album. But till that time the EP Baby It’s A Face will have to tie all the Bombay Show Pig fans over. On this second EP the Bombay freaks continue on where they left off with their first EP. With even more stoner queues taken from bands like Queens Of The Stone Age; these five songs are heavy laden with hooks and a truckload of small accents that add greatly to the charm of it all. Highly dynamic and with never a dull moment they tend to lure you into one direction only to throw a curve ball the other way. Leaving you wondering where to go next with their eclectic, electric and synthesized version of stoner pop. This is music for weird nights full of masks and dirty dancing. It’s sizzling. The fat is in the fire. Get high on cocaine…

Bombay Show Pig – First EP

Bombay Show Pig – First EP

Nowadays Bombay Show Pig has been reduced to a duo because vocalist Christian Kratzsch decided to leave the band last year. But during those first years the band was known for their energetic live shows and their ability to fuse all kinds of heavy rock into some kind of hipster indie version. Which resulted in comparisons to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Death From Above 1979. And they sure do sport a massive beat and rhythm. Founded as a graduation project for the Amsterdam Conservatoire they maintain a dark and grimy attitude and use this to combine stoner riffs and grooves with a punk feel, noise influences and an indie disposition. It’s the fat that makes the taste, he said with great relish!
