Orquesta Del Desierto - S/T
Orquesta Del Desierto - Album - “S/T” (Meteor City, 2002)
Available: Now
If you've ever woken up after a hot summer night of alcoholic excess, legs stuck to the sheets and mouth as dry as sawdust, then this is the perfect album to nurse your sweaty hangover.
With Tequila soaked vocals and hot tempered latin rhythms, this debut offering from the Orquesta Del Desierto lot (including members of KYUSS, Queens of the Stone Age and Goatsnake), will have you up and ready in no time.
Shadow Stealing will drag you into the day with its insistent latin guitar riffs - something like The Man Who Stole The World on uppers whilst he holidays with Jim Morrison in Mexico, after which the mellower, vocal driven After Blue will soothe your fevered head with its rolling, lolloping bass line.
In fact, whatever your preferred course of action in hangover hell, this album will have something to assist you.
Go back to sleep aided by the gently drifting Waiting for That Star to Fall or dance around the house in the manner of Mary Strange.
This record has been called 100% stoner approved, which *is* true but it's so much more than a stoner rock album. This album takes cues from blues, folk, country, latin and driving rock and twists them into moments of sleepy perfection.
There you have it, an album which presents a perfect excuse to go out and get trashed. Pass the Tequila, por favor…
