Nasty distorted riffs and heavily echoed vocals await the fearless listener when Hot Knife comes to town. This San Francisco-based troupe has broadsided stoner rock with electronic- and dub-based noises, and the result is an outer space screamfest of epic proportions. Careful, though, because Hot Knife will stick it in your ear sideways.
Born 4 years ago in the depths of San Francisco's Tenderloin district, and inspired by the junkies, crackheads, low-rent hookers, low-rent crackhead midget hookers, ?and grease-covered pigeons who inhabit it, this whiskey?& pill fueled four piece was formerly known as the Sleeze Band.
