Portland Oregon's Red Fang come out of the corner swinging on their second effort with album opener Malverde. It sets the tone for what is to follow as there is hard rocking aplenty on this disc. There is a certain amount of familiarity about their sound which is seemingly unavoidable in the stoner rock world. Comparisons could be made to any number of bands including the Melvins and early Queens of the Stone Age but the music rises above on the strength of the songs and the crisp production by Chris Funk from the Decemberists. While nothing new this disc is a worthy purchase for any fans of the genre.
