GOD BULLIES - AS ABOVE SO BELOW RED/BLUE W/ WHITE SPLATTER COLOR VINYL LP
God Bullies. Originating in Kalamazoo, Michigan, home of the state’s largest mental facility, these dark-edged satirists warped minds in the 90's by taking rock and garage-punk conventions and injecting them with massive overdoses of mental sickness, Midwestern perversion, backwoods hatred, and completely whacked out speech sampling. Imagine Flipper crossed with Link Wray, fronted by a prison-bound Jim Bakker and you might be close.
After several LPs and EPs on former label AmRep and singles on various other independent labels, breaking up and shuffling members to return on West Coast’s Alternative Tentacles for their fourth LP, they again broke up. Mike Hard went on to perform in several bands, Thrall, Hand Over Head, BrainSaw, with incestuous sharing of members between these bands. The one constant through all of this twisted output being the charismatic singer/psychopath - "Father" Mike Hard.
Fast-forward to NOW and Father Hard and a core group of deranged Detroit disciples have made the pilgrimage to Steve Albini's Electrical Audio Studios to share their twisted, obsessive tales of conspiracies, paranoia, and fringe beliefs with the brainwashed masses! Boasting a much tighter, heavier and more sinister sounding sonic sermon, AS ABOVE SO BELOW is set to rock the foundations of your faith!!
A dark, crude, and menacing attack that should appeal to fans of Jesus Lizard, Melvins, Tomahawk, Easy Action, The Birthday Party, and the prime years of Amphetamine Reptile Records.
