NEGATIVE REACTION's first album in like... a decade(?!) is just about finished - right now it's in the mastering stage at Steer Run Studios, which is Ken-E-Bones' recording studio at his compound in West Virginia (he relocated there from Long Island!!!!). Speaking as one of the few people to have heard a track from it, I can tell you that it's going to be good... I had the privilege of seeing them last summer, where Ken-E-Bones, as he put it, "channeled his inner Randy Rhodes". That's not just an opinion he and myself share, but his band and a pioneer of the sludge community who witnessed it live. Get ready to be shocked by these solos. At this point, I think it's safe to say that his guitar-playing is superior to Matt Pike, Wino, and even Dave Chandler. So be sure to check it out when it drops!



Btw here's the official statement the band released about it last month:
