Safety Net – Art

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 | Records | Garage Punk, Glam Punk, Power Pop, Psychedelic

Last year’s Health EP was some quality shit already but their newest release is just so ridiculously appealing i wasn’t at all prepared for that kind of mayhem. This trio is from Nashville and i suspect that Connor and Sean are the very same dudes best known as Skull Cult otherwise – not a fuckin’ clue who Cam is. Oh, and there’s one more thing: Being in charge of mixing and mastering, none other than Erik Nervous left his own trademark beer stains all over this cassette whose sound is just as wild and eclectic as consistently catchy. Some echoey garage surf twang? Spaced out psychedelic freakouts? Wire & Mission of Burma vibin’ on Benzos? You name it! And hovering even a notch above all that shit, there’s the downright perfect 70s power pop-meets-80s hair metal masterpiece Be With You, a knockout punch of the most pleasant kind.

Alien Nosejob – Paint It Clear

Wednesday, November 17, 2021 | Records | Garage Pop, Garage Punk, Power Pop, Synth Punk

Um… what meaningful thing is there left to say about a new Alien Nosejob record at this point? They kinda come in two shapes: The grab bag style ones where Mr. Robertson branches out in every direction possible and the hyperfocussed monoculture ones where he doubles down on a single genre – like his hardcore 7″s for example or that synth pop/eurotrash 12″ maxi a while ago. Well, this one’s another grab bag record and apart from that, it’s just the plain old usual awesomeness we’ve all come to expect from this dude who seems utterly unable to write a dull tune.
