Aggressive, arrogant, depressive and downright beautiful, Snatches of Pink's "STAG" is a breakthrough, a totally unique approach that reclaims and updates the Keith Richards style of rock for another generation. One can hear traces of Johnny Thunders, "Exiles"-era Stones, "Tonight's The Night"-era Neil Young, and those downer Aerosmith LPs from the late 70s (the ones recorded as the band was breaking up). What makes SOP's approach so distinctive is that they take these influences, amp them way up and then slow everything way, way down, playing very loose and dirty, so you can hear the complex harmonic churn of the instruments. The production is top-notch, which makes STAG one of those rare records that truly blossoms at high volume. Excellent replay value: this CD stands up to many repeated listens. It's a mystery to me why this band has toiled in obscurity in Chapel Hill NC for the last decade; with work of this caliber, they should be stars.

If you love loud, grungy, messy imaginative rock and roll, then don't hesitate to get this glorious mess of a record.

Stag is yet another beautiful catastrophe from the boys in Snatches of Pink. It's great. what more needs to be said that hasn't been already?

Amazon have listed the song titles incorrectly so don't go by that. Judge the disc by this review. It is rock. No more, no less. It's a thick, muddy crunch of a record. Very cool. This is not a pop record. Don't get me wrong. I love pop but this disc is some other beast. It requires multiple listens from beginning to end. It's short so that's easy. The first, second and final tunes and best. As a matter of fact, i like to crank the final tune to ear splitting levels while on repeat to get the full effect. You may be asking yourself why only 3 stars? Because that is what it Ranks relative to their other output. The disc is a little work but a lotta worth it. Like i've said before, check out all of MainMan Michael Rank's other releases as solo, Clarrisa, Marat and early S.O.P. It's all good, as the saying goes.
