POSITIVA Centaurs Ride CD __________________________________________________________ ODIO SONORO (2008) NEW, UNPLAYED SPANISH IMPORT [PLOT SUMMARY] DESCRIPTION: Another dose of revisionist 70's rock from the Spanish label Odio Sonoro, who seems to be turning into the new Meteor City or Man's Ruin, take yer pick. Their other new albums from satanic doomrock-thrashers Rhino and psych sludge crushers Loan, which we also have listed in this week's store update, are both crushing mutations of stoner rock, and Positiva's heavy duty retro boogie fits in perfectly with that whole aesthetic that the label is carving out. As far as I know, Centaur's Ride is the first album from this Spanish band, and it's a forty-three minute blast of loud, burly riff ROCK that would sound like it came right out of 1975 if it weren't for the thick modern production and metallic heaviness. Think Grand Funk Railroad, Led Zep, Black Sabbath, Captain Beyond, and Mountain, massive guitars and huge crushing hooks, soaring soulful singing, shades of dusky psychedelia, lush acoustic instrumentals, massive sludgy metallic riffing. It's like Positiva took the essence of all of those awesome guitar rock bands from the 70's and ran it all through the crushing heaviness of Goatsnake and Kyuss and the heavy psychedelia of Screaming Trees. Some of my fave tracks on the album include "Hi-Lo Charge", where the band drenches acoustic guitars and winding melodies in spacey fx and sunbaked vibes, and when the smokey solo enters towards the end the whole thing shoots skyward. "Feel The Evolution" has an almost Brit Invasion sound at times, and heavenly vocal backups, and "Zopilote" is an immense psychedelic hard rock instrumental. The lead guitar playing on Centaur's Ride is incredible, too, some of the most emotional and expressive bluesy guitar playing I've heard lately. Utterly crushing heavy rock, doom fans and stoner rockers and heavy psych fans would all dig this equally, and as catchy and huge as these songs are, I can't belive that Positiva aren't a household name yet in the spliff rock scene.
