This weeks prime exhibit unearthed from the bermuda triangle of Garage-, Synth- and Eggpunk-related dementia comes from a bunch of hungarian folks letting loose a racket that leaves nothing be desired for connoiseurs of the genre, scratching an itch similar to well known genre entities á la Ghoulies, Research Reactor Corp., Slimex, Gee Tee or Set-Top Box.
Dumb and simplistic garage-/synth punk shit from Sweden that won't fail to energize fans of the likes of Liquid Face, The Spits, Ausmuteants, Sex Mex, Mateo Manic, Slimex, Powerplant, Buck Biloxi and the Fucks… pick your poison!
You know what's really been missing recently? A new dungeon punk scorcher! This artifact of unclear origin goes the buzzsaw synthpunk-meets-black-metal route and does a formidable job at getting you into the mood for some skull-splitting action in the musty catacombs.
A new batch of lo-fi viking synth punk madness from that Schleswig dude who at this point doesn't need an introduction i think, having crafted a very unique niche of his own with a string of EPs and singles over the short span of less than a year. His newest one is another strong beast oscillating between snappy garage punk smashers and throbbing dance floor rough-ups.
A catchy-as-fuck attack of melodic garage punk fun with a bit of synth action goin' in some tunes, an abundance of '77 tunefulness in others. Admirers of Sick Thoughts, Cherry Cheeks, Booji Boys, Erik Nervous or TJ Cabot are sure gonna approve.
Always a nice thing to have in your house these ghoulies… The Perth group's newest EP might be their most catchy and upbeat batch of tunes so far and should please the discerning connoisseur of garage-/synth/eggpunk phenomena in the vicinity of, say, Research Reactor Corp, Cherry Cheeks, Alien Nosejob, Satanic Togas… just to name a few.
Haven't heard from this L.A. garage-/synth-/hair Punk project for quite a while. Anyway, this weirdo's newest cassette once again has an abundance of beautifully retarded DIY cock rock miniature madness in store for us.
You can't ever go wrong with another EP by Orlando's melodic synth-, garage- and post punk powerhouse Cherry Cheeks who achieved some kind of punk rock quasi-nighthood last year as signified by their first LP being released on Total Punk. The newest self-released bunch of tracks delivers more of the same catchy goodness with slight similarities to groups like Freak Genes, Powerplant, Trashdog, Warm Exit, Alien Nosejob and Set-Top Box.
More insanity to make your brain hurt from that certain Leipzig garage-/synth punk outfit fucking around, as the name would suggest, only in the eggiest corners of eggdom. Full of hooks and catchy most of the time, weird as fuck all of the time. Friends of shit á la Nuts, Set-Top Box, Metdog, Nubot555 and Dee Bee Rich are gonna have another ball with this.
Goodbye Boozy releases tend to come in batches and here we have the clear standout of this latest one - the newest EP or LP or whatever by Parma, Italy garage punks Dadar who take another kinda straightforward, risk-averse approach here stylistically, while they once again excell at engineering catchy melodic detonations of pure garage- and synth punk fun in the well-trodden neighborhood of Ausmuteants, Mononegatives, Useless Eaters and the like.
