5.0 out of 5 stars Will this Band be the Next band of the Decade?......., May 15, 2001

To keep this a secret any longer would be impossible. Hog Molly may just be the band that proves that hard, heavy metal rock, is detremental to your health. That is when they find the heards of people sitting by their stereos, with their heads split open. They will have been issued their death certificate. The cause of death? Kung-Fu Cocktail Grip, Hog Molly style. Hog Molly, which features frontman Tad Doyle, cannot be compaired to his former band Tad. They wouldn't stand half a chance. That's what makes me really excited about this record. To bring something, "Heavy", to the table is one thing, but to brutalize it like Hog Molly does, is another. From the screaching yells to the solid, almost disiplined chanting of lyrics, Tad and Hog Molly make sure you are in the,"grip". The Music featues a rhythm from heavy to fast, to rocking your brains out, to a slow....chug.....chug.....that will lull you into the abyss, and never to return to the real world. Mesmerizing. The best thing about Hog Molly is though, even though their the best of musicians anywhere, and their music is deffiniately on the progressive side, is that whenever you hear a song on their CD, you can bet they'll play it better live! And that is what is best about these Sumo Wrestling Stars, They have the Best live show in town.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kung-Fu Cocktail Grip is heavy, drivin' rock n'roll, June 12, 2001

If you were a fan of Tad, you should pick up the Hog Molly CD. This CD has that dirty, raw rock n' roll sound that I love, it's almost like being at a live show. The lyrics of each song tell their own individual stories. It's amazing that the brutal sonic assaults of Tad's vocals are completely audible. If you like relentless,heavy guitar tones this should make you smile. They remind me of bands like Helmet and Clutch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Band: HOG MOLLY-- K ung Fu Cocktail Grip CD, May 20, 2001

First off, The live show of these 4 Hessians is going to become legendary if it isn't already. That being said, this disc ROCKS with a capital Rrrrr! Tad Doyle and company have written and performed 15 songs of full-throttle Punk-Rock-Metal fury. Everything that is right about the afore mentioned genres is rolled in to one fatty of a cigar that would choke the tobacco industry on pure volume alone. First out of the gate is "Mr. Right". The bass sounds like a bulldozer with a personal problem, powerful, heavy, and oh so delicious. Doyle rants about what his father taught him and how we all have to get ready for revolution. I have no idea what revolution he is singing about but when Mr. Doyle sings something like this with as much conviction as only he can, we had best do as he says. Slimmy D Diabolis' drumming is stellar and or it will make you see stars. Martinus (the lead guitar guy) blasts out the leads that makes guys who say they play guitar cower in the shadows. As well they should. Ty Satan has the bass sound that has the atomic weight of the most dense element ever found and crushes like the weight of 60 M-1 tanks on a single saltine cracker. Get the picture? There are 14 more songs of diversion on this disc, all of them quality Hard Action Rock. If you are ever afforded the luxury of seeing this band live, go! I could go on and on. Bottom line, if you like Metal, and or Rock and Roll, and or Punk, you won't be disappointed. Buy, beg, or steal this cd.
