REVIEWS

 

English

Mo' Memphis madness building on the legazy of The Oblivians and trash rock in general. Ugly, unhealthy and unfriendly as it's supposed to be. One of the songs is recorded by Alicja Trout and Jay Reatard is also involved somehow which should give you an idea about the madness involved. Not for the faint at heart.

Broke-ass blues by the way of the Lost Sounds, including a guitarist whis is now in the Black Lips. It's effective punk blues (without compromising either one of the terms) mixing the creeping sickness and itchiness. The two songs are swampy and feel like the players are knee-deep in mud, playing on a clear night where all the stars are easy to see and fill up the night. Honest, authentic-sounding stuff.
