Sore = 2 LP = (LP)
Music On Vinyl presents a re-release of "Sore", the second album by one of the most unique and overlooked bands of the US underground - Buzzoven. Buzzoven (also known as Buzzoven) was a sludge metal band from North Carolina, formed in 1989 by the remaining members of Sewer Puppet. The band was known for being one of the founders of the sludge genre (right after Eyehategod), and also for their out-of-control and violent live shows. The band in its early days toured heavily around the United States and built up a cult following leading up to the release of their debut 1993 album, "To a Frown". The album caught the attention of more prominent Roadrunner Records, who decided to release the band's second album "Sore" in 1994. Yet instead of garnering the type of recognition as some of their label mates (Sepultura or Fear Factory, for example), Buzzoven remained very much a cult band, continuing to tour heavily (including a stint opening for GWAR) but ultimately disintegrating before they could issue a follow-up. The band was dropped from Roadrunner's catalogue, and went through several periods of being split-up and reformed, with Kirk Fisher (alternately credited on albums as "Reverend Dirtkicker" or simply "Kirk") as the only constant member. Dave Collins now heads sludge bands Weedeater and Ramsey has gone on to join fellow sludgers Sourvein. The bands second release "Sore" is a sonic assault to all senses, a devastating punch in the face of brutality and complete hatred towards human kind. It is highly recommended for fans of bands like EyeHateGod and mid-era Neurosis.
