Janus
Stark / Human Waste Project
In: Camden Barfly @ The Falcon, London
Date: Wednesday December 10
By: Paul Brannigan.
Rating: 3/5
Human Waste Project's Aimee Echo is a star. Before heading out to support
coal Chamber on tour, the Project are bringing their brand of twisted LA noise
to Club Kerrang!, and Ms Echo is charming everyone with her cool big sister
stage banter.
"I guess this is all new for most of you" she smiles, but unfamiliarity
isn't a problem when you're dealing with the Project's dynamic, build-to-the-bouncing-chorus
material. Songs like 'Exit Wound' and 'Disease' start with a chunky rumble
from bassist Jeff Schartoff before guitarist Mike Tempesta begins slashing
across the rhythm with surgical precision. For of the Deftones and Korn -
most of you, basically - won't have any trouble locking into the Project's
grooves, and Echo's vocal variations give the band more depth and diversity
than most of their LA peers. Smart.
Most Rocking Moment : Human Waste Project's set.
Least Rocking Moment : Janus Stark's set.
Best Onstage Quote : I've never been so hot in my whole life. Should
we all get naked? - HWPs Aimee Echo gets steamy.
Verdict : An upside down bill.
