Description
Rainbow Red Oxidizer – Recorder Lies – Vinyl Record
Recorder Lies by Rainbow Red Oxidizer is an album that emerges from the realm of experimental and alternative music. This album, while not widely known, embodies the innovative spirit of musicians who push the boundaries of conventional musical structures.
Although “First Taste” was the only Juicy Groove album, most of the same crew recorded another album under the name Rainbow Red Oxidizer. This quintet consisted of Neal, Mars Bonfire, Marker, Ed Cassidy, and lead guitarist Leon Rubinhold (formerly of the Outlaw Blues Band).
They apparently realized what year it was, because Recorded Lies, released in 1980 on Quark (a sub-label of BOMP Records), took a more up to date new wave approach. This was perhaps not a big stretch from First Taste, since ’60’s garage rockers are sometimes considered to have been the punk rockers of their day. The six band written songs on the first side of Recorded Lies are from the Iggy Pop school of insolent punk.
The title track is a maniacal rant against the record industry. On “Wild Beast Planet Ruler”, Neal howls like a werewolf above the band’s relentless garage groove. The second side is the better one, where Neal and the boys (and some girls) gleefully destroy seven classics by the Beatles, Stones, Jackie DeShannon, Sam the Sham, the Contours, Link Wray, and the Music Machine. Recorded Lies is an enjoyable romp most of the time, even though it does cross the line between irreverence and irrelevance.
Recorder Lies may not be a mainstream hit, but it serves as a testament to the diversity and creativity within the world of experimental and alternative music. It offers an opportunity for listeners to delve into uncharted musical territories, exploring the boundary-pushing and thought-provoking aspects of the genre.
Recorder Lies by Rainbow Red Oxidizer is an album that invites exploration and contemplation, appealing to those with a taste for experimental and alternative sounds that challenge traditional musical norms.
Mars Bonfire was the stage name used by rock musician Dennis Edmonton (born April 21 1943), perhaps best known for writing the hit song “Born to Be Wild” for Steppenwolf.
