Colossal Downer
is the first long-player from Nottingham quartet/self-help group
Grey Hairs
. The album was originally conceived as two EPs -- side A,
Man Gulps
, and side B,
Little Fingers
-- in an attempt to provide some "listening convenience," much like a serial narrative; we're all busy people these days after all. Together they are the
Colossal Downer
LP, recalling nothing less than the pre-gold-rush, anything-goes era of
Nirvana
before everyone got so hung up on genre definition. Rapid-fire punk rock blasters nestle up to a lumbering caveman grind. Echoey surf-clang shares vinyl space with riff-heavy garage fuzz. It's how records are meant to be: idiosyncratic and representative of the people who made them. Featuring members of UK underground bands as diverse and respected as
Lords
,
Fists
,
Cult of Dom Keller
,
Fonda 500
, and
Kogumaza
, Grey Hairs is a conscious attempt to return to the gut instinct impulses that got its four band members out of their bedrooms and on stage in the first place. With a reputation for carefree and chaotic live performances, the men and women of Grey Hairs have turned what started as an excuse to go to the pub on a weeknight into something truly special in a relatively short space of time.
