Inspired by a little girl's wild imagination on Halloween night 2002, the Naked Mole Rats recently decided to change their band name to Little Dead Riding Hood and rename their 2002 CD from Fortune Cookie Monster to Unhinged. Whatever title you may find it under, you'll hear music influenced by '70s progressive, the heavy metal explosion on the '80s and the deep tonal mood of the '90s. Bruce Gatewood is the guitarist responsible for the heavy sound shock - doom 'n' gloom rhythms undercut slinky, snarling lines and head-splitting guitar fills. With the CD containing tracks with names such as "Graveyard Blues", "War Zone", "Unstable" and "Frustration Disipation" (sic), you probably won't be humming the tunes at your next family reunion - rather, lock your doors and windows, grab the beverage of your choice, turn off the lights, put the album into the CD player and prepare for a guitar heavy descent into the madness of a fairy tale character slowly becoming... unhinged. Hard Rock, total running time, 43:30
