(2019) Meatraffle - Bastard Music
Review:
Politically, this week has been monumental, an amalgamation of nonsensical decisions driving us into dystopian reality. With this in mind, Meatraffle’s Bastard Music, although three years in the making, could not have been more timely. ‘The Cyclops,’ its opener, is a metamorphic onslaught. It represents a monster, in this case the rise of nationalistic fascism triggered by capitalism. Entirely relevant, its atmospherical guitar use and prowling, reverberant vocals embody the cruel nature of the system. It is sometimes hard to define Meatraffle’s sound for it explores numerous genres. If it were a Glastonbury stage, one would place it in a dark corner of the Unfair Ground not too far from Block 9’s NYC Downlow. Less metaphorically, the words ‘politically charged sci-fi’ come to mind. A combination of humorous alt-punk mixing with fusions of discotheque grooves, lo-fi beats and a dash of reggae for good measure. However, one must return to ‘Meatraffle On the Moon’ for it is a true album highlight, the finest example of their nonsensical sound. It is a dystopian hit at the future, manoeuvring between paradigms of imagery and fear. It predicts a realm of urban enslavement upon Mars, an image by no means out of place in a ’70s sci-fi film. It is hypnotic and brutish, a dreamy ode to the worker in outer-space. It seems far fetched, and it’s easy to say: who cares? Why not dance to Meatraffle in a biome on Mars! But no, in an age where this may well become reality, it is important to react now and save what we have left. Bastard Music is a project three years in the making. Perhaps they own a crystal ball for this collection of songs is more relevant now than ever. In times of uncertainty, Meatraffle’s brand teeters upon the surreal, but their down to earth political rhetoric is of upmost necessity.
