41ur0mgsnwl_aa240_.jpgWhen the first track on your new album is called “Purple Neon Dream,” you’re just begging people to listen to your album while all fucked-up on lots and lots and lots of drugs. The good news for unabashed stoner rockers The Hidden Hand is that their new album, The Resurrection of Whiskey Foot, is still pretty good even if you’re stone cold sober. Sabbath inspired, fuzz-covered guitars, clean but no whiny vocals, killer, wailing solos: every young, overhyped band that Rolling Stone swears is “bringing back real rock n’ roll” should have to listen to this album; ditto every aging metal superstar who can’t keep up with Scott “Wino” Weinrich, who still makes it look easy two decades later.
