Rating: 7 bad neighborhoods out of 10

The type of hard rock that Hot Lunch plays never seems to go out of style.  It may not be at the top of my personal list, but it's a timeless, heavy sound that has been going strong since the likes of Blue Cheer and MC5 came on the scene in the early seventies.  You could probably also make parallels to a band like Fu Manchu, but perhaps that is the skateboard cover art talking more than anything else.  The record slows down and gets weird in a couple of places, and by "weird" I mean elves and wizards Led Zeppelin type shit, and ain't nothing wrong with that from time to time.  But mostly, it just rocks.  And rockin' is always right.
