EarthQuaker Session: Obnox - Enter the Hater

Aaron Rogers

Since 2011's I'm Bleeding Now, Obnox's Lamont "Bim" Thomas has been cranking out scuzzed-out fuzz-punk and hip-hop records at an alarming rate. Thomas, himself no stranger to the DIY punk underground, having performed with This Moment in Black History, Puffy Areolas, the Bassholes, Blaxxx, and X___X, spits raw fire atop a nauseatingly awesome distorted guitar style drawing from blues, punk, garage, and soul, wrapped in barbed wire and dipped in glass.

Not one to shy away from gain, Bim pummels his amplifier into submission using the Spires, Talons, Tone Job, Bit Commander, Acapulco Gold, Bows, Tentacle, and Arrows to achieve his signature speaker shredding sound.

Obnox’s new album Niggative Approach is available now on 12XU.
