This is a countdown of best bands by Middle Finger Media. Uranium 235 is #2.
#2.
Uranium 235 - Cultural Minority
RELEASED: February, 22nd 2000
Sounds like:
The Holy fucking Grail of music!
Seriously, I don't care who you are or what you're into, buy this CD now.
The last few months, I'd become even more jaded than usual at the music scene.
Now, the dry spell has ended. Every so often a band comes along to change things forever.
Remember Guns N' Roses ripping everyone a new asshole with 'Appetite For Destruction'?
Then along came Nirvana. A couple years later, the mainstream discovered Marilyn Manson.
Another couple years, Korn changed the whole scene.
The point? Uranium 235 is next on the list. I haven't been this excited about a CD to this extent since the Newlydeads (way back in February of 1997!)
This shit is incredible. Imagine 'Pretty Hate Machine' era NIN merged with 'Portrait Of An American Family' Manson with Nirvana type lyrics, yet mixed up and formed into an original sound that isn't really any of those sounds.
Maybe you could call it Gothic Headbanging Dance Rock?
Whatever, if there is any justice, these guys will be huge. What is the word you would use to describe how much a song could make you feel the emotions of the singer and slamming beats of anger ecstasy?
When you find that word, that's what I want to say about these guys. This is a must own.
