Yeah, the Destruction Unit album is a goody. Think the review over did the Hawkwind comparisons, but I can deffo hear the Chrome sound in there.
Mind you, I pretty much buy anything on the Sacred Bones label, gotta be one of my fav' labels of the last few years.

They cover everything from alt folk through punk rock and psych to synth pop and quasi industrial. Don't think there's a release by them that I haven't rated to some degree, not that I have them all. Great quality control, and a great 'corporate' image to boot.

Here's Destruction Units label written bumf...

"Destruction Unit are a band from Arizona. Destruction Unit play loud rock music. Destruction Unit have recorded a long playing record. Destruction Unit think you should buy it. It is morphine boogie for the 21st century noise addict. A spiritual odyssey of sadomasochistic self-loathing with songs about love and freedom. The world is a sick place and Destruction Unit is it’s medicine. But you better act fast before its as illegal as the black market medicine these guys must have taken to make such a record. This line-up has released several cassettes on their own label Ascetic House, a small run LP, Void on Jolly Dream and have an upcoming limited edition 7-inch on Suicide Squeeze Records. Deep Trip is their first proper studio record, recorded by Ben Greenberg of The Men, Pygmy Shrews and Hubble, and Kyle Keays at Vacation Island in NYC, and mastered by Kris Lapke of Alberich and Josh Bonati, this is brooding American psychedelia, modern psych, debt and war psych. The future of Rock and Roll burning through three twin reverbs and a pound of grass."


And if you feel like investigating the label...

If yuo've not heard em' already, you may enjoy the band Pop.1280 too, they have a distinct Chromish edge to some of their songs. Particularly recommend the album 'The Horror'.
