WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL ABOUT BIGELF?

So Keith Bergman at Blabbermouth gave Bigelf’s latest, Hex, a perfect score in his review of the album. I don’t think Bergman gives those out so easily and I respect him as a critic, so I checked out the band the way one does these days – that is to say, I paid a visit to the their MySpace page – and it all just sounds like really generic, uninteresting stoner rock to me.A little help here? Can anyone explain to me what’s such hot shit about this band? ‘Cause, seriously, I’d much rather listen to some Hidden Hand or Electric Wizard. I mean, seriously – look at that band photo. Doesn’t that just annoy the shit out of you?

No offense to anyone who writes them as I, too, respect a few of those guys a good deal, but for some strange reason the reviews on Blabbermouth have always been some of the most mind-numbingly frustrating reviews I have ever seen in my life. I almost never agree with them at all, and at times they can be almost offensively inaccurate – regardless of whether it be for or against the band/album in question.
But I’m also kind of an asshole about things like this, so I would never want to even bother listening to a band called “Bigelf” in the first place, so… the photo would DEFINITELY seal the deal on that one, ha, ha…
Yeah i would say that I was at the rigt website when I found out about Big Elf!!! THEY SUCK!!! Bring on Dozer and Electric wizard!!!! Hell even witchcraft is better than any song I heard
Yeah, I an ad in the last decibel, and vowed to hate them just from the pics. To bad the Hidden Hand broke up. Anything with Wino rules!
Don’t forget the Linda Perry connection.
