Hangover Hotel
(pic: Berto Garcia) “Big Sexy Noise is the primaeval bump, grind and holler of White’s thuggish drums, Johnston’s moronic low-tuned riffing and Edwards’ brutal organ and sax interventions led by Lunch’s take-no-prisoners vocals.” Big Sexy Noise will be playing London’s Corsica Studios on December 9.
