WIDE MOUTH MASON

Rating: N



buy this at amazon.ca!

In France, Jerry Lewis is considered a comedic genius. I wonder if the French are amused that Canadian prairie boys Wide Mouth Mason are rock royalty in – I swear – China. Sure, they’re the best band ever to finish second in a high school battle of the bands contest, but seeing as how the Chinese government frowns on such activity, WMM must come off as some pretty heady shit, proving it’s easy to dominate a market when you’re the only ones in it. For us Westerners, Shot Down Satellites will probably be appreciated for what it is – hopelessly MOR dreck that panders to the lowest common denominator while trying in vain to be the missing link between Grand Funk Railroad and BTO.
