“The Company Corvette don\u2019t quite reinvent themselves on their third album, but they wind up pretty close to it by the time they\u2019re done. It was five years ago that the trio of bassist\/vocalist Ross Pritchett, guitarist Alexei Korolev and drummer Peter Hurd released their second album, End of the Summers (review here), and at the risk of being honest, it didn\u2019t do it for me. I had seen the band live by then and found them engaging enough, but the record didn\u2019t have the same effect. For the seven-track\/38-minute Never Enough, the three-piece hit Gradwell House in New Jersey to work with engineer\/mixer Matt Weber, and the resulting material, from the farty bass wah on \u201cDevilwitch\u201d to the spaced-out multi-layered solos of the ultra-stonerized \u201cBurn Out,\u201d showcase a fully developed sonic persona. At times abrasive, The Company Corvette almost bring to mind a thicker-grooving take on Acid Bath\u2018s underlying sludge fuckall, and whether they\u2019re messing with faster tempos on \u201cThe Stuff\u201d or dug into all-out \u201cSnowblind\u201d nod on opener \u201cFoot in Mouth,\u201d they keep a sense of attitude central to the proceedings, Pritchett\u2018s vocals moving into harsher territory but even when clean holding onto a (purposefully) dazed drawl, calling to mind Thurston Moore at the start of closer \u201cPigeon.\u201d Released once again through the band\u2019s own The Company Records, Never Enough realizes the potential their earlier work showed and brings it to life with a sense of grunged-up heft that becomes its defining element. They\u2019re an act who has clearly put work into sounding like they couldn\u2019t give a shit.” – The Obelisk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
