Lawnmower Deth

Unleashed In The East…. Midlands! WAXY MONKEY

The stoopidest band in the world, on DVD/CD.

Live and sheep dipping from the 2018 Download Festival, the British thrash metal bozo clowns reunion sounds like a whole lot of fun in a Hell’s Angels meeting your grandma for tea and scones type of way. Sure, they have the chops (probably the pork ones at the meat raffle in your local pub) but they also have enough saving graces to power this juggernaut of absurdity down the Moto Donington Services.

Icky Ficky is plainly vile, as is Egg Sandwich, but the ‘classic’ may be Watch Out Grandma

Here Comes A Lawnmower, which essentially does for metal what the Wurzels did for cider rock. Once heard then best soon forgotten, Jaggered Wedge takes speaking in drunken tongues to the nth degree, but Urban Surfer 125 is charming; exactly the kind of tune you’d require to rearrange the furniture in a motorway caff.

A foolish album, but with certain delicately grassy notes.
