Out next week on seminal Seattle label
Sub Pop is the sophomore, self-titled LP from schizoid garage rock prodigy
King Tuff. A maddening bluster of pawnshop guitars, smutty grunge and superlative falsettos and screeches,
King Tuff is a rough tumble of a record and Alone and Stoned serves as its immediate highlight. A potent whirr of nicely phased guitars serve as the undercurrent for Tuff's petulant lyrics of "All of my friends are all alone and stoned; all of my friends are on their headphones" like a grounded teen with an empty grinder. Dumbfounding.
