Accolades for Altamont Nation Express
Oh my dear sweet bearded Jesus � make it stop. If I listen to any more of Nixon Now�s Altamont Nation Express, my head�s gonna fucking explode. See, I can�t get enough of these fifteen songs. I haven�t had this sort of reaction since I first tried booze and discovered that getting foolishly drunk is a shit ton of fun. Nixon Now walks � no, struts - a thin line of MC5 and The Stooges worship but deftly dodges unoriginality by throwing in some good ol� fashioned rock and throwing down a righteous good time fuck you attitude. Hell, they write a song about Brian Jones that�s so killer, had the subject been still be alive, he�d do a bunch of pills and lines in celebration.
If anyone could equal the MC5 and Stooges at their insane best, it's Nixon Now. There's so much fuzzed-out, punked-up riff-crazy power on this disc that you'll feel like brother Wayne Kramer or Fred "Sonic" Smith, whirling with their guitars like dervishes at an early MC5 show, convinced that rock was going to change the world and that the lifestyle would simply PREVAIL.
