3.0 out of 5 stars Pitchblende - 'Gygax' (Matador), November 20, 2010

Barely remember this part industrial, part alternative metal band. Definitely hit a small nerve when I ran across a couple of their '90's releases I haven't seen in awhile now. Tracks that weren't bad to check out include "Squeezin's From The Mole Jug" (with it's eerie beat), the eight-minute "The New Decadence", "Crumbs Of Affection" and the seventeen-minute epic "Romanesque But-Tox". Line-up: Treiops Treyfid - bass & vocals, Justin Chearno & Scott De Simon - guitars and Patrick Gough - drums & vocals. Might do something for fans of the Unwound, Faust and Gang Of Four.

i bought pitchblende cuz alt.press said they sound a wee doncaballerish. lil did i know that doncabishness w/o the brilliance of damon che and ian t. williams (and with the presence of the very same chorus in every song) equals a sincere, 'nice try there, fellas'. the last track fades out on a really swell high-school-drama-sorta tip (a tad bit Home IX), but i just couldn't get into this when i have truman's water, turing machine, and storm&stress layin around. maybe 'kill atom smasher' is better. i have not given up on pitchblende.
