Press Reviews “Best Guitarist (Making a Statement)” - Metroland, July 26, 2001 Tom Burre - Bone Oil Sure, Tom Burre’s guitar has six strings, and, yes, he’s playing chords and writing songs on it, just like all the other guitarists in town, but somehow the noises that come out of his amp don’t quite sound like anything we’re heard before, anywhere. Add an intelligent, exploratory songwriting ethos and a bucket of vocal techniques that would make a team of Tuvan throat singers take note, and you’ve got a true trailblazer of sound and vision. “Best Local Albums” - Metroland, December 28, 2000 CRITIC : J. ERIC SMITH 1. Bone Oil The Mist of Lust Refreshing in its difference from anything that’s come before in these parts, yet still bearing the very recognizable marks and ministrations of its creators—Tom Burre, George Muscatello, and Todd Hinman—all of whom are sublime performers in their own rights, and who bring out the best in each other in ways most bands can only dream of. “Best Freakout (Highbrow)” - Metroland, July 27, 2000 Bone Oil Guitarist Tom Burre, bassist George Muscatello and drummer Todd Hinman combine a mindbending blend of styles and techniques in their presentation of Burre’s compositions: Free-jazz tangents, slow – swinging Latin lounge, and vicious metal squall are shot through with Beat poetry, wry observational humor and political outrage to produce the Bone Oil sound. The influence of Frank Zappa is readily apparent, but so too is that of Mr.Bungle, Gil Scot-Heron, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Rage Against the Machine, and David Torn. This is heady music for headbangers.
