About

This release pairs two Fu Manchu EPs from their late-'90s heyday. Released in 1997, <i>Godzilla</i> was anchored by a conclusive reading of Blue Oyster Cult’s “Godzilla,” one of the blueprint songs for Fu Manchu. Fuzzed-out guitar oozes from the song like molten chocolate from a French dessert. 1999’s <i>Eatin’ Dust</i> is even better. Bolstered by the addition of new members Brant Bjork and Bob Balch—not to mention Josh Homme, who contributed percussion—“Shift Kicker,” “Mongoose,” and “Module Overload” display a band charged by new energy. While they had always boasted a big engine, these songs show them shooting down the highway with the windows open.
