The night's opening act was KC punk/garage/metal (or, according to its MySpace, "Rockabilly/Thrash/Melodramatic Popular Song") band Attack on Uranus. Already you're thinking this band doesn't take itself too seriously. Well, maybe, but it's more like the band seriously wants to come across as funny, meatheaded, puerile, not giving a fuck, etc. "Look, we got Uranus in our band name!" Fortunately, they aren't over the top with the lowbrow humor, and they have a charismatic, skinny, punk-ass lead singer with a high, searing voice from Mercury. The band is also ambitious in its bending of genres, attempting to funnel things like Rush, 50s pop ballads and hair rock into splintering space-punk.
...I received a friend request from one of the latter the other day, a band that goes by the clever moniker “ATTACK ON URANUS.” Well, this is perfect, I thought. I’ve wanted to spend more time on MySpace Music so that I could find some horrible musical groups to pummel with my misplaced anger and aggression, and it would appear that these groups may just come to me, instead. How easy!
Much to my chagrin, ATTACK ON URANUS did not hopelessly suck. In fact, they turned out to be a pretty solid thrash punk outfit out of Missouri with a hell of a lot of energy and much to offer to headbangers everywhere. No, they aren’t the next Megadeath or Anthrax, but with member names like Smooth Cock Sailor and Bet Your Balls it’s Neill Smith, can you really go wrong? Hell, I might even accept these cats’ invite to become friends...
