12.The Fun Machine Took A Shit and Died
by Marcel Anders (27.06.2007) There are things,Josh Homme doesn't like at all. Such as right-winged media propaganda, pseudo-religious stupidity, and an ignorant environment- and foreign policy. Consequently, on his new album, he appears as aggressive and rude as never before. With songs carrying such programmatic titles like "Sick, sick, sick", "Battery acid", and "Run pig run" - changing between harsh Garage Rock, heavy Industrial, Punk and cacophonic noise. No comparison to his relaxed 70s Rock past, that always reminded me a bit of Cream. Also no orchestral symphony-bombast, like on "Lullabies to paralyze". "Era vulgaris" is ages away from that. Simply because hard times request hard tunes. Homme sets them to music with prominent guests, including Billy F. Gibbons (ZZ Top), Trent Reznor (NIN) and Strokes-singer Julian Casablancas. Big names that can hardly be recognized in the general sound inferno - consciously, according to Homme. Because "Era vulgaris" is supposed to be exactly like that: an intense chunk, that you can splutter easily at.
