MURDER BY GUITAR "Rock Bottom" EP 33RPM

|
When these kind of powerful songs are getting rarer and rarer (we don´t talk about pink dots fluffy pop), we have well known protagonists here popping up. It´s two third of the LOCOMOTIONS, whose debut album was one of the coolest garage punk platters ever came out of Sweden. On the one side it´s Loco Lopez (vocals, dynelectron) who is one of the guitar heroes in our ALIEN SNATCH! marvel set and genious songwriter of the SONS OF CYRUS and LOCOMOTIONS, on the other side we have the unstopable Martin Savage (vocals, danelectro) of the LOCOMOTIONS, BLACKS, DIXIE BUZZARDS backed from like minded Rikard Johansson (vocals, drums). This combination making you tense and jitter till you either start to fail in rock moves or get down in awe. All songs recorded live in an outstanding studio (Frank E. Male of HENRY FIATS OPEN SORE ) which put the guitar sound to a new level diamond brilliancy while damn loud and penetrating. The square but not trashy vocals add power and make the songs even more memorable songs. MURDER BY GUITAR has the magic like the REAL KIDS would back ROKY ERICKSON on TEENAGE HEAD songs, full of hooks and loaded with well placed hot licks! It´s so terrific, we signed them for a 7” and a forthcoming LP/CD right away. Our “new band”-pick of the year! Pressing 500 black and 100 clear red vinyl for mail order geeks only. |
