Gorilla

Camden Underworld London March 2 1996


From Kerrang! (but hey, what do they know right)

Support to Into Another

The audience for Derby's Gorilla could have been squeezed into a phone box. Critics' enthusiasm for the band formed from the ashes of The Beyond has yet to filter through to the paying punters. Gorilla add samples and an electric violin to a moody, thrashing maelstrom, but this imagination and innovation doesn't always translate into good songs. Bulldozer suggests there are melodies under the crunch, but it's nothing to get excited about.
