So, I only just recently discovered Ball while hitting shops in Chicago a couple of weeks ago when I stumbled across their third proper LP Midnight Heat and bought it based on the shop’s creative description that actually bore some solid truth. The next week in Ottawa I came across the band’s first album (this) and their second, both used, and jumped on ‘em. Think heavy psychedelic rock paired with that late 1960s Detroit proto-punk sound like the MC5 or the Stooges… throw in some early Venom, satanic themes and 1970s 8mm porno vibes and there you go. I’m not entirely convinced this is a proper band, but the records are smokin’! Ball!
