Rusty - Fluke | Album Review
from Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock · host Dig Me Out
Rusty's 1995 debut album Fluke pulls off a neat trick, sound both of the times and yet somehow ticking the boxes of previous generations. There is the swampy garage blues of "Warning" that Royal Trux or Beck would appreciate as much as ZZ Top of Rory Gallagher. There is a blast of hardcore-ish punk on the aptly titled "Punk" and nods from everyone to the Stooges, Nirvana, Dinosaur Jr. and The Replacements across the record. Separated, the guitars might sound too gnarly or the drums to lo-fi, but the overall combination mostly finds the sweet spot. Song In This Episode: Intro - Groovy Dead 13:22 - Misogyny 18:07 - K.D. Lang 19:52 - Warning 23:50 - Punk Outro - California Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon. Listen to the episode archive at DigMeOutPodcast.com.
