Neither a recession nor a lack of vocalist can get Stinking Lizaveta down on "Sacrifice and Bliss," the title track off the Philly metal trio's sixth album, out at the end of March on At A Loss. A tender guitar theme yields to tough Jesus Lizard grooves gets trampled by some classic metal swing and a bitchin' guitar solo from one of the band's two bearded Papadopouli. It all ends with the triumphant return of the tune's opening theme, this time given a kingly, heavy metal recessional makeover. Heh. Recessional.
