The Best Album of 2014 That You Haven't Heard - "The Late Heavy Bombardment" from the band Mexican Ape-Lord.
You've probably never heard of Mexican Ape-Lord, and you've most likely never heard their debut album entitled "The Late Heavy Bombardment". That is exactly why you should pay attention now!
Mexican Ape-Lord was founded by guitarist/mastermind Anthony Nichols and vocalist/bassist Jon Hardy. If you think these names sound familiar; you're right! Anthony Nichols was, and is, a founding and current member of Meliah Rage, the thrash-metal heroes of Epic Records/Screaming Feret Wreckords fame. Jon Hardy, on the other hand, came to Mexican Ape-Lord via punk rock legends The Bags. You've got to hear what happens when these two get together.
"The Late Heavy Bombardment" is a true work of art. Hard riffs, in-your-face vocals, and a masterpeice of song-writing, "The Late Heavy Bombardment" is an album that transcends metal, transcends punk rock, and is just simply...awesome. Do yourself a favor and check out this record.
