Tee-Vee Repairman – Patterns
Speaking of the devil… here's the latest venture of the mighty Warttman empire and it's yet another beauty to behold. Four rough gems of catchy garage punk and power pop that, of all the Warttman-related groups, reminds me most of R.F.M.C. and Satanic Togas, albeit with a certain southern rock (in this particular case… southern what, actually??) bent bearing some similarity to what you heard on early Sheer Mag EPs.
Album-Stream →Prison Affair & Research Reactor Corp. – Split EP
Not only do Warttman-affiliated australians Research Reactor Corp. and Barcelona's Prison Affair have a lot in common in terms of their Lo-Fi garage aesthetics, but also both of them had earlier EPs reissued by Erste Theke Tonträger at some point. Thus, it makes perfect sense for them to join forces on this kick-ass new split-EP on ETT that once again is guaranteed to satisfy connoisseurs of all the finer things inside the realm of weird-ass yet catchy-as-hell garage punk goodness.

Skeleton Glove – Skeleton Glove
Berlin group Skeleton Glove have already put out a bunch of demos, all of which suffered to a varying extent from their Lo-Fi production values, so it's nice to finally hear them in a sound that does their sheer sonic force justice. The result is every bit as good as i could've hoped for, their ultra-primal brand of post- and hardcore punk with flourishes of death rock and garage never failing to hit where it hurts the most.
Album-Stream →LLRR – < = >
This EP by Kyoto group LLRR is a real treat! Post punk that's simultaneously catchy and abrasive, often danceable, sometimes leaning towards math rock structures and oldschool no-wave-funky in other places. A rock-solid rhythm section creates the ideal space for guitarist Yuzuru Sano's unruly yet often quite melodic eruptions of noise to unfold as well as the hypnotic chants by vocalist Minami Yokota, the latter being interwoven into the rhythmic foundation to a degree seldem heard from contemporary groups.
