Rusted Shut - Rehab

Only in Texas. Any state that can produce the Butthole Surfers, Stickmen With Rayguns, Scratch Acid, and of course George W. Bush, must have something weird going on. The heat? The drugs? Whatever it is, we wouldn't trade it for the world (well except maybe for the Bush part). How Rusted Shut managed to remain so obscure is a mystery for the ages. The horrible grinding noise these guys can muster up out of a plain old rock band is mind boggling. It's downright harrowing listening to this disc. They've been around since 1986 (and part of this disc was released as a cd-r in 2003), but this is their first official release. A massive, pulverizing crush of simple, plodding, gritty, grimy, filthy, scuzzy, dirge-y sludge that is just obscenely heavy and the grinding buzz that permeates and suffocates every second of this disc has to be THE most distorted guitar sound ever. Sounds like the riffs are crumbling to jagged little pieces the second they emerge from the speakers, a Marshall stack and a suitcase full of distortion pedals run through a meat grinder and then flung at you like white hot shards of jagged metal. Like the sickest most doped up, deliriously deviant noise punk free-rock outfit, but all wrapped up in a fuzzy, sick black cloak of grim black metal buzz. Sometimes this sounds like the Buttholes meets the Brainbombs, sometimes like Celtic Frost meets Today Is The Day fronted by Cronos from Venom, sometimes like the Lightning Bolt dipped in hot tar with a heavy metal Captain Beefheart on vocals. So whether Rusted Shut sound to you like black metal, or dirge punk, or sludgecore, or all out noise, pretty sure after getting an earful of this you won't be able to hear much of anything else. At least until the ringing stops and the bleeding lets up a little.

i saw this band recently because of all the buzz surrounding them and was unimpressed. really really sloppy and haphazard. the drummer had to stop playing at times to go up to the guitarist/singer and remind him to do vocals. very weird show.

there's a buzz surrounding them? this album is three years old and i only even heard of them because they were a connection in a noise group i'm in on last.fm
and sloppy and haphazard and really drunk sounds like what i would expect from them live
this album is ridiculous though

[sweetmusk]

yeah, ive been hearing about them from random dudes at shows this summer. they have an interesting reputation because they are supposedly blue collar nobodies from texas who came out of nowhere (i guess not from austin) and blew people away. somehow the guy who runs load, ben mc-something must have heard them because their newer release is on load - which is another reason for hype.

i wanted to hear those sludgey riffs at the show, but they were kind of a mess. you're right in that i should have expected it, but it simply wasnt that fun or interesting to watch/hear. my first hypothesis was that the frontman was mentally handicapped.

edit: i shot you a myspace message - whats UP?!

oh ill tell you whats up with that

"Sorry! An unexpected error has occured etc."

i hate myspace

and their myspace says theyre on load but theres no information on them on laods website and i cant find anything newer than this album which annoys me becaus ei love it and i want to hear more by them
i do have older stuff though and its not as good
