Music reviews of Kill CityMusic Review: Terrible, terrible, terrible
Well, what's there to say? The Stooges, along with Burzum, the Birthday Party, Darkthrone and the Misfits ('77-83 R.I.P.) are some of the most vicious, emotion-raping, raw music of all time. This album was and is a dismal failure as a follow up recording to the Stooges' legacy. It was released after a couple of Iggy's soft-bellied solo releases, but follows Raw Power chronologically on the Iggy timeline. That said, it has several redeeming values - probably more contextually than musically. First of all, it was this album that lead Bomp! records to release some of the harder to find classics in a slightly remastered form. Secondly, the album contains several original classics - the title track being one, and the other one being Night Theme (Reprise) which is a nice, peaceful little ditty featuring Williamson and buddies playing a plethora of world instruments. The most important tracks on this album, however, are the studio versions of the Stooges' unreleased tracks "I got nothing" & "Johanna." "I Got . . " shows up in a slower, less impassioned incarnation than on the Stooges' bootlegs. "Johanna" similarly is played in a slower, funkier manner than on the Stooges' bootlegs, and is destroyed but the presence of a horrible G.E. Smith style sax being played over it. Bomp! were wise enough to put this versions SANS sax on the Stooges' bootleg/best of comp "year of the iguana" - I highly recommend you buy that release that you might get some idea of what this song should have sounded like. Overall, a dreadful, but gravely important release.
