‘Dustbowl’ is HEAVY. I saw them play in a bar around ‘91 or ‘92. Killer show, they used a drum machine though. Justin was long gone by that time. Awesome frilly shirt on the guitarist. They were touring with Tar, an AmRep band….

I got this album when it came out, because I was in some sort of Albini trance at the time. He also recorded Wedding Present around the same time as Head of David but that truly sucked. of all the stuff he recorded back then I always preferred Dustbowl (as well as the first Urge Overkill EP, ‘Strange, I…’ and some Killdozer). I haven’t heard it since then, but I seem to remember HOD had a cool Suicide vibe going on. But they covered ‘Ghost Rider’ too, right?

I’d say it most closely resembles AmRep noiserock, but not quite, being slightly more metallic. I bought this album on CD years ago for $1.00, mostly because I was a huge Godflesh fan. I’ve also got the first album on CD, creatively titled “CD.” For me this falls into that vast category of stuff that is neither really all that good nor really all that bad.
