F our more prayers from the chapped, apocalypped Cop Shoot Cop. It opens in a car chase rumble of bass and drums. By EP’s end, one wheel is shot and you’re imbalanced, hellbound. If Killing Joke cooking from Primus’ pantry makes your mouth water, open wide for Suck City. Rotten old graybeard that I am, I hear Eno and Iggy Pop alongside Butthole Surfers and Jane’s Addiction. What you won’t hear is a guitar but grinding noises, two basses and drums that wrap themselves around the axle and send sparks flying. Cop Shoot Cop’s intricate chaos aligns them with the new fusion of the 90s: punk, rock and technology played like a police siren to a sleeping populace. Here but for the grace of Bob I would be sleeping too (thanks, man), but I woke up in time. In the lexicon of the primus particulate, this EP sucks.
