Busted Head Racket - Go! Go! Go!

An­oth­er qual­i­ty re­lease from that bas­tion of off-kil­ter punk and noise, Er­ste Theke Ton­träger. Bust­ed Head Rack­et is a group based in New­cas­tle, Aus­tralia cen­ter­ing around vo­cal­ist /​ mul­ti-in­stru­men­tal­ist Ar­den Guff and in the past year has al­ready made waves with a num­ber of EPs, com­pi­la­tion ap­pear­ances and split re­leas­es. Their long-play­ing de­but now de­liv­ers an­oth­er strong batch of odd lit­tle tunes of dis­tinct­ly egg-ish qual­i­ties which man­age to come across as equal­ly catchy, quirky, rough and en­er­gic, kin­da com­bin­ing the traits of, say, Bil­liam and the hard­core at­tack of last year's Snoop­er LP, with fur­ther par­al­lels to be drawn to such acts as Slimex, Daugh­ter Bat and the Lip Stings, Set-Top Box and Ghoulies.
