Good Bad Not Evil
Vice Records
Musiholics—the Black Lips have released yet another album. I must say this record took a bit getting used to. I found myself spoiled on the more raw sound of the band. But Good Bad Not Evil still delivers. Songs like, "Veni Vidi Vici" and "Navajo" show a more tribal aspect of the band's influences and really touch an area previously unexplored. While tracks like "Off the Block,” "Step Right Up," and "Slime and Oxygen" give you a more mature sound, but still maintains the original persona; reminiscent of the 13th Floor Elevators. It also includes first singles, "Cold Hands" and "O, Katrina." It's definitely a charming surprise for old listeners, and a good start in supporting their already wide fan base.
