The Soul Destroyers - Blow Your Top Pt. 2

ORIGINATION 7"
LAST LISTENED TO last week sometime
CHANCE OF WAKING TO IT not very high
RATING

New funk. Well, newish, from 2000. On Stark Reality, one of Jazzman's offshoots. Nice rolling drum. Chicken scratch guitar. Bits of brass. A touch of organ. Funky, funky bass and a bit of organ. It's got everything a nice slab of funk needs, even something that may of may not be a dance. It probably isn't, but to "blow your top" does sound like some sort of funky move.

This is actually the b-side of the single. Part 1 on the a-side is not in fact the beginning of this track, rather it is a completely different version of it that is far faster. However, it's really much too frantic. Pt. 2 has a much slower groove that makes it just much more funky and it's better for dancing too as well.
