- Hypochonadriac LP ist out now! San Francisco’s devout pop purveyors
– are back with a new batch of expertly crafted buzz-pop songs! There
are 100 copies (out of 500) in lemonade red colored clear vinyl, you can either
buy in our mailorder section or directly thu paypal here.
Melodically, in addition to some of the band’s late 70s punk and power
pop heroes (Nick Lowe, Cheap Trick, The Nerves) Cocktails bring inspiration
from the catchier side of 90s guitar bands - think Teenage Fanclub! Hypochondriac
is a quick gut-punch of a record - it draws you in with brief moments of sweet
and fuzzy feelings, and then drops a chorus that will keep your head spinning
for days.
06/05/17 SUSHICORNER Konichiwow debut LP ist out now! It´s a great record from Singer/Guiarits if LOVE BOAT, THEE OOPS and member of the RIPPERS as well as UNDISCO KID! Read more here.

OUT NOW! THE HEX DISPENSERS "III" LP/CD!!
The HEX DISPENSER return with a new album packed with their hypnotic darkness
rock! Their previous releases got terrific feedback, they´re largely considered
as the iconic band of angst ridden, raw haunted garage punk. The shadow-y tension-filled
voice of Alex Cuervo is absolutely remarkable and makes any of their song an
easy go at yer music jeopardy. The HEX DISPENSERS give you the creeps with killer
down-toned guitars and paranormal pop hooks as if RAMONES would have only played
bat caves, the SPITS got stuck in black java and DEVO felt the cold touch of
the MISFITS. They took all their latest singles hits and brand new songs into
the Cool Devices Studio of Mark Ryan / Jeff Burke (MARKED MEN, RADIOACTIVITY)
to record album "III". You get the most rocking HEX DISPENSERS album
to date, a bass driven catacomb exploration with some winks of Alex' solo works
and a doom-ish, sinister synth track "Hypersleep" - sung by Alyse
and Rebecca. Brilliant artwork and inner sleeve by the band itself. Mastered
by Mikey Young (EDDY CURRENT SUPPRESSION RING). Worldwide exclusive release
by ALIEN SNATCH! stream of the album here
and there is a great NOISEY write-up and here
a awesome CVLT Nation Interview!

SNATCH!070
there is no better way to start the year then unleashing this killer
45!! HITS,baby HITS! BRAIN TRAPS are from cologne,
Germany and we think this debut Single will be on any top ten for fans of LOFI
Rocknroll and razorsharp punk scatter bombs! Limited 500 copies! Debut Album
out soon also in ALIEN SNATCH! and upcoming tour with KÜKEN.
"The TEEN TRASH series is back! LO-FI or bust! Teenage angst driven garage
PUNK! Four early recordings from 2013 - a spawn of boredom and basement dirt
which could be best described as a hornier INFECTIONS, or high on glue METROS,
a smarter BUCK BILOXI & FUCKS or a dumber version of the CARBONAS! These
scatter bombs were captured live on 4-track and stayed unedited until RIP OFF
RECORDS mastering miracle JIM KUCZKOWSKI put his magic hands on it. As "too-hot-to-press"
it was aging in our attic until now and here they finally come! The wildest
LO-FI R'N'R thing out of the motherland since DEAN DIRG! Strictly limited to
500 copies. 400 copies black wax and 100 copies clear orange wax (mailorder
only or from the band!)."

Second album by this 4-piece (3 dudes and a lady) from beer 'n waffle
land. Yep, that's Belgium! Twelve gritty, hook-laden tunes about confusion,
nightmares aaand good things! Evil pounding drums! Stinging treble-y guitars!
Growling bass! Real music, y'know! Ranging from cool jangle rockers to manic
guitar freakouts they manage to master the Nuggets/Pebbles formula in a modern
way without sounding like another dull copy. Throw in some fire of love-era
GUN CLUB for good measure and dump the surf powerpop BARRACUDAS into the belgian
sea and there ya go! Imagine the STANDELLS setting the MUNSTERS show on fire!
But ya know, they're not into recreating an old era or following current trends,
they're rather interested in creating original music! No silly garage rock uniforms!
No STANDELLS wigs! No drone-y faux psych! No moronic joint chompin' tie-dye
"take-it-easy-brooo" flower-rock BS! After awesome previous releases
SLEEPLESS NIGHTS is a upbeat and catchy garage pop sensation as we love it at
ALIEN SNATCH! The twelve originals sound just right, we could have never mixed
the album any better than this. Stunning artwork (check!), crazy band name (check!),
perfect catalog number (check!), limited coloured vinyl (check!).

SNATCH!068
rock and roll candyland has opened it's doors again! The IMPO
& THE TENTS is the top attraction, a rollercoaster ride with 12 firecrackin
soda cans while everyone is seated in spinning bananas! The top show are four
not-formerly-known-sons of the OHIO EXPRESS, rumors say they toured Sweden in
hope to free villages full of of blonde girls hold by the ABBA sect. Expect
60´s bubblegum blood splattered tracks, instant remarkable punk singing
as DICKIES and UNDERTONES on the speed parts and thrift store rock and sticky
power pop with the SHIVVERS, REAL KIDS, RASPBERRIES on the tapedeck telling
stories about first turn-ons, sneaky looks and yesterday's girls on the two
minutes rides. The wagons are equipped with endorphine popgun shots of early
YUMS YUMS or RED KROSS, totally electrified & buzzing as the Atlantas' BARRERACUDAS
and square & weird as LOVE BOAT islanders will splash at the last curve.
Adrenaline filled, addicting flatterin´voice & the hooks to massage
any moustache wins definately the sing-sing-songwriting-contest of they year.
// nonsense? genius album title, the no.1 douche band name
and the two
weeks photoshooting to come around with the most hairy NERVES 45 sleeve ripoff
ever //dance?
the sideway helicopter! moronic smiles and spit blueberry sirup thru tooth gaps,
white-blue chinese kung-fu shoes kicking rolls of toilet paper //toughness?
recorded by Stefan Brandström of HENRY FIATS OPEN SORE, mastered by Dave
Rahn of the CARBONAS //dog and pony show? on tour in Europe in November 2014
- get in touch with Bazooka Ben. Free weed icecream and kim-chi cream cheese!

SNATCH!067 - the
garage kraut sultans ZHOD
slam their debut album onto our planet! ZHOD
finally have their debut album out! Would you rather? is packed with instro-garage
weirdness and freight train surge!
tied
deep in the garage, the love to shift your grooves with noncyclical waving instro
sound-convoys back to a furious attacks of hypnotic, guitar punches and catchy
choruses and freight train bass lines. Imagine ROCKET FROM THE CRYPT get pulled
in the gutter by MAN OR ASTROMAN. KING TUFF commanding a cobainy submarine and
the OH SEES' are detailed doin' service in the engine room. In a nutshell, just
put TY SEGALL downhill on a bike with no brakes. How come? Hiding in deserted
Berlin backyards ducktaping broken windows and enriching their art progress
with pharmacy bags of medical weed and cheap liquors, they onboarded reel-to-reel
recording mastermind Nene Baratto (MOVIE STAR JUNKIES, Outside Inside Studios)
to finally knock it out! It´s ten songs of fuzz-soaked, dreamy garage
rock of this never-resting german four piece. They just put the cream on their
european tour for the flippin´ festival summer and heading back to any
basement weirdness or BYOB party right after to the Liverpool Psychfest! doing
laundry is yesterday, stay dirty with ZHOD!
They already
got some reviews and a brand new interview at Foggy Girls
Club french

What a great SXSW-write up about the GOLDEN BOYS:
Even after the disaster that was “Shortcut to Memphis”, The Golden Boys are
still a stunning example of rock’n'roll from the heart. Separate The GOLDEN
BOYS and you get 5 destructive tornadoes of law defying drunkenness and
self loathing (especially Schmitz) bring them together, and they form a sub-par
action squad of stumble-drunk sweethearts who even at their worst…are the best
band in the world. We really, really hate them for that. Formed in 2000 in between
Bryan Schmitz’s (bass) Matt Hoopengarder’s (guitar, vocals) and John Wesley
Coleman’s (guitar, vocals) stints in jail and on drugs, the boys have formed
something tangible through 5 LP’s worth of material. Through the addition of
drum beater Pat Travis and total asshole Nay Nay Arbietman (keyboards) the band
has cultivated a truly Texan sound. Their songs are Texan in their drunken reverie
and Texan in their tender heartache. Despite Pat being the 2nd drummer, Nay
Nay being kicked out 3 times, and Matt breaking up the band about a dozen times,
they’ve managed to pull it together for a couple of disastrous, yet well received
U.S tours. They even got a European tour under their sweaty belts. Well done,
Boys. All in all, The GOLDEN BOYS are a fun group
of grouchy sweethearts that will come to your house, charm your girl, drink
all your booze, then dip out of there. Yeah, they’re fun to drink with. Spot
Long and JJ Ruiz – Trailer Space, Austin, TX
11/02/13 We have soon a 7" of the TYRED EYES on the label. Please check em out on tour! They kill!

30/12/10
this went via email but here again: Dear bookers & friends,thanks
again for having the GOLDEN BOYS! You made it happen!!
They made it thru the whole tour, they played all shows which is nearly unbelievable
with all the snow. Tons of other bands cancelled all over the place. The played
killer shows, double sets, exceed our high expectations and many of you got
back with overwhelming feedback. Here and there more people been expected but
with icy streets it was quite a hassle for everyone to travel around. It worked
out in the end and the band want to thank each of you for all the efforts. The
GOLDEN BOYS want to come back maybe late autumn 2011, which would be fantastic.
We´ll see what time will bring. So we have upcoming tours in 2011 of WHEELS
ON FIRE and GOLDEN BOYS on the US-Side and we sure see tours of the MOJOMATICS;
VERMILLION SANDS and KIDNAPPERS. Stay in touch,
thanks again and a rolling new year!

We had a nice summer in Sardinia, thanks to the LOVE BOAT
and MOVIE STAR JUNKIES, VERMILLION SANDS people!
The last four weeks we´ve been busy as we can be for shipping the incredible
new HEX DISPENSERS album and the release of that
classic GOLDEN BOYS "Whiskey Flower"
LP album. As usual, too much for updating. Here we go, we updated the review
pages and mailorder stuff, of course. WE have a new GOLDEN
BOYS album coming next but this will take some more while, and inbetween
we keep bothering our buddies looking into a european tour.We met also STRANGE
BOYS. So Austin all over the place! The MOJOMATICS
finally tour the US in October and have three (!) new 45s coming out in the
States. They also play on that VICE SCION Garage Festival in Portland. Impressing
Line-Up! The FEVERS lay along with DONNY DENIM
the Budget Rock 8. Wow!
