'Kerosene'. Kicking off with an intro sounding more like oil drums being clattered than a guitar, the riff steadily climbs over a loping drum loop before crashing into the heaviest moment EVER, with Big Black sounding more like scrap iron in a metal crusher than a rock 'n'roll band. Albini's bleak vision of small town boredom and despair bides time before the next squalling explosion, until after about six minutes the song collapses in a serrated crash of ear splitting noise. Perfection.

Thanks Motors - I gave the song a listen & it's amazing - I have a new theme song for Syracuse! Very apt reveiw, although I didn't think it was a noisy as the reveiwer made it out to be. I'll have to track down some more Big Black.
