TIME HAS
COME exists since four years by now. But in these four years
and probably also the upcoming 400 years there won’t be
an apposite kind of music style that describes the sound of the
guys from Hamburg/Germany by just one word. And to cause more
confusion: Hardcore, Techmetal, Mathcore or whatever must be added
to the mentioned styles, because all of them can be heard on their
first full-length after releasing a split and an EP. And this
is exactly that what turns White Fuzz into all other
than a catchy album. But let me, in defiance of complexity, tell
you the most distinctive trademarks offered by White Fuzz.
Vocalist Disco-Stu (Simpsons rules!) does his name justice live
at most, banned on record he launches the full Hardcore-squaller-attack.
As wicked it sounds when he expands close to Seth Putnam spheres
when screaming his lyrics, as much it drives me up the wall by
and by when he whimpers or moans syllables or/and words in clean
style like a casted TV-superstar whistle buoy does. The steady
moaning to open out in scream-ecstasies just bothers in the length
of time. The sound is as constant as the vocals are, even all
other than that. It doesn’t wonder in view of the multiplicity
of elements TIME HAS COME amalgamates that the tracks maturate
to complex, sometimes cumbersome monster which don’t match
with tempo or straightness. For example: a stomping beat meets
Atari or C64 tunes of the 80’s to end up in Noise or the
changes in speed or burgeoning melody catapults one out of a circle
pit mood. Well, time to stagger or to get a cold beer at the next
bar. The prevailing mood White Fuzz conveys by this
is constant: weird, aggressive, agonizing with easy limbering-up
exercises in harmony. This is quite interesting, but also arduous
to listen for my ears. One has to be fan of this definitely.
