Goblin Cock, 'Come With Me if You Want to Live' (Robcore)

Heavy-riffing goof lives down to its name.

The sophomore effort from Pinback frontman Rob Crow's stoner-rock side project should be taken exactly as seriously as the band's name. Which is too bad, because shards of Come With Me suggest Crow has more to offer the metal gods than the intermittently awesome sludgefests served up here. Anyone with regularity issues would do well to partake of the bowel­loosening subsonics on "Big Up Your Willies," while both "Loch" and "Ode to Billy Jack" briefly achieve Kyuss­ian grandeur. But the savagely beautiful "Haint" is Goblin Cock's only unimpeachable moment. Joke's on them.
