Ana Whenever I get wind of upcoming goodies from these guys, I get excited. Today, that excitement is tempered slightly by the fact that the latest offering is not a full-length. Fortunately, the quality of the music offsets this.
AquaTramp play a brand of southern rock I am tempted to dub stoner country blues. It's an interesting blend of guitar-rich bluesy groove and Sabbathesque stoner doom. The rhythm section is tight, guitar work inspired, and the raw vocal delivery really gives it...texture. Favorite track: Gut Rot Blues.

Verse 1: Yeah I know it may not look like it But I'm asking you what does? My day has gone from bad to worse I got to thinking that you're the cause I ain't no black bandana man Do I display the face of some wanted man? I just play my guitar in this here bar But if you see the cops a' comin' I'mma run real far Verse 2: Well I'm strummin' and a' hummin' Well I'mma strummin' and a' hummin' 'bout days gone by Singin' gut rottin' blues 'til my tears run dry Killin' and a' stealin' is all that would matter Oh they'll pay through the nose just to see me on a platter But that all changed when I found these chords 'Til I turn myself in just to claim the reward Chorus: Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Bridge: This bar Has caused me a lot of scars This saloon Don't wanna hear my tune Can't blame My crimes they brought me fame Couldn't just quite recall all the rest when he handed me a bottle marked XXX Chorus: Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips (hot lips) All night (all night) Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips (hot lips) All night (all night) Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips (hot lips) All night (all night) Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips (hot lips) All night (all night) Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright Hot lips All night Singin' gut rot blues when the moon shine bright

Man Made 03:36
Verse 1: From cathedrals of labour A choir of beggars Sing them songs of besieged, embattled fools Anvils rhythm in a fiery prison Quenched with the blood of those not with us Flame is hot Smoke it high Burning embers and sparks will fly Chorus: And whoa the years have come taken my youth from me 'Cause times is hard when you're not man made Verse 2: There's a dust from the bones of the absentees And it gathers on the branches of the apple trees Lunar kings, observing life, Camouflaged in dark of night Firebringer Has he caught your eye? Bake in the kiln All the men, women, children The fire breathes the air of life Chorus: And whoa the years have come taken my youth from me 'Cause times is hard when you're not man made And whoa the years have come taken my youth from me 'Cause times is hard when you're not man made Bridge 1: Smoking towers block the sun The volcanic tusk erupts From cycloptic beast sounds distant shriek It hunts for meat, its fast food feast Iron silk down edge it spills Loops around with cosmic tails Blackened skies, decayed horizon Stinging tail strikes through Orion Chorus: Whoa the years have come taken my youth from me 'Cause times is hard when you're not man made Bridge 2: Locomotives Go unnoticed Moving caskets Soon are opened Firebringer Comes to earth See him walking Across the earth Chorus: And whoa the years have come taken my youth from me 'Cause times is hard when you're not man made And whoa the years have come taken my youth from me 'Cause times is hard when you're not man made

Verse 1: Yeah! Read the news in the talking leaves About some red-skinned woman who was weak at the knees For a blue-collared man with a six-shootin' pistol For the time of your life costs gold by the fistful Chorus: Have you seen those Cherokee women? With feathers in their hair There's a name to every feather For the land that should be theirs Verse 2: For the fathers of the promised land That's why she took to the bed of the American man Who's fate decided by the head witch doctor He will die in the nest of the raven mocker Chorus: Have you seen those Cherokee women? With feathers in their hair There's a name to every feather For the land that should be theirs Bridge: She's got scars to show on her bull-whipped back And a ringin' in her ears from the sound of the crack In dawn, it shone through to marching men Who along this path might see the end Andrew Jackson, wait til' his back turns Then use this axe in a lethal fashion The dying words of an infant she raised She told to the many men she raped The crying trail - that's where she decreed With her body and an axe, she'd avenged the deceased How wide can you grin with your scalp in your hand? Shoulda known better than to fuck with her land Outro: Born an orphan To a dying breed Cry an ocean For sequoia seed Cherokee Cherokee Cherokee Cherokee woman
