Reissued by Germany’s Lonestar Records, Fatso Jetson – Cruel and Delicious is a vital slab of genre-defying desert rock from Fatso Jetson. Originally released in 2002, this 2021 reissue (LS-058) brings back a wild ride of fuzzed-out riffs, surf-jazz detours, and punk-rooted attitude. Mario Lalli (Yawning Man, Desert Sessions) teams up with Lawrence Lalli, Tony Tornay, and guests like Jesse Hughes (Eagles of Death Metal) and Vince Meghruni to create a record that’s as off-kilter as it is infectious. Recorded and mixed in part by Mathias Schneeberger and mastered by Alain Johannes and Josh Homme, this LP is an essential piece of California’s sonic legacy. Pressed in stereo on vinyl with all original artwork intact, Cruel and Delicious remains a standout for fans of Kyuss, QOTSA, and the rawer side of desert experimentation.
