Bongzilla

Stash

Relapse

All hail the mighty gurgling stoner rock of Bongzilla! If size matters, this is one of those eight-foot numbers that takes four lungfuls before your first taste of smoke, and you just try to hide that baby from the cops when they beat on your door. Heavy, repetitive and way riffy, this sounds like what you get after listening to eight tracks (sugg.: Double Live Gonzo ) and burning through a quarter over the space of an hour. Bongzilla’s agenda is pretty simple: “Load bongs, not guns.” Lyrics and the dope equivalent of centerfolds are included in the insert. Happy smoking!
