Popis - CYBER TOOTH:
Cyber Tooth is the latest solo album by ex-Hawkwind bassist Alan Davey who nowadays is mostly doing vocals and bass in his own Gunslinger band. The man has written all the songs and he also does all the instruments and vocals. The bit jazzy, more mainstream tones that were already presented on his previous album are now included maybe even a bit stronger but luckily theres still lots of stuff that Alan does the best: heavy, psychedelic space rock as well as floating, cosmic ambient! A sort of a theme of the album seems to be internet and virtual reality. The album that was released early this year has 11 tracks on it. First we get to hear the quite interesting "The Future Is Us (Viral Messiah)" that, apart from the harder rocking solo part towards the end, could almost be Radioheads recent stuff. Its a great track, though! "Boot Killer" is a pretty tightly rocking instrumental that sort of reminds me of some of the more metallic songs that Alan wrote for Hawkwind. "Metamorphic Code" is a small-scale, peaceful ambient piece and the soft and modern-sounding "Harmonic Orgone" could well be lifted from a David Lynch movie. "Doomjuice (Its Coming)" is dark and experimental electronic instrumental music that again brings to mind Radiohead a bit. Some new sounds by Alan. The title track "Cyber Tooth" rocks in the familiar way again with a heavy touch reinforced by the keyboards and this is one of the best numbers on the album. "Rootkit" is a rather laid-back instrumental that does grow a little towards the end. The song that rocks hardest is the excellent space rock boogie "Fractal Eyes" that is perhaps my favorite on this CD. "All Over the Place" is a versatile and interesting track that only has a little bit of robotic vocals on it. The albums longest cut is the over 6-minute instrumental "Polymorphic Code" that has some Gong styled groovy jazzy vibe and this is good stuff! The last track "Bio Scan" finishes off the album with sci-fi spirited, exciting boogie. And it is of course always a great pleasure to hear Alan play his bass.
