SWEET
REAPER
"Still Nothing" LP
The
Reaper is haunting humanity again! Eleven new and exclusive ultra-catchy
punk rock songs for the flying saucer bus stop! Still Nothing! Skate to
the long-awaited new album by these Californian skeletons! They’ve
got X-ray power pop with a dooming urge and ADHD don’t-wanna-grow-up
energy, paired with RAMONES monotony and moody moonwalks. SWEET REAPER
songs are recognizable and addictive like salted caramel fudge—plain
and simple melodic punk in the vein of the DICKIES or ZEROS, with Seth’s
extraordinary voice as the topping and a galactic game-changer. Think
modern touchstones like RADIOACTIVITY, BAD NERVES, SPITS, and LILLINGTONS—here
come the punk-pop pill pushers! New to the Reaper? It’s a L’art
pour l’art Nobel Prize BEACH BOYS con job! Under the cape you’ll
find Seth, Sasha, and Danny—and you’d better hipstellectual-prep
your record collection with all previous SWEET REAPER wax. Still Nothing
delivers hits like “Walk Away,” “Motion,” “Sacrifice,”
“Ratchet,” and many more—it’s hard not to name
all eleven. Recorded by K. Tupper and J. Jerome, treated with analog care,
lacquer-cut, and mastered by the one and only Jeff Burke (MARKED MEN,
RADIOACTIVITY, LOST BALLOONS). Record label trivia: SWEET REAPER is now
the band with the most releases on ALIEN SNATCH! Label therapist needed?
Ahhh—now they’re the leaders of the pack, true believers,
and the soundtrack of our eyebrow-brushing studios in Berlin! |

REAPER
"Street Sweeper" LP
Crank
up the volume for the ultimate soundtrack for surfing, skating, and sweeping
up the streets of Black Widow Island! It's poisoned power pop, contaminated
surf core mixed with sticky basement punk pills. While SPITS and HEX DISPENSERS
are still in the mushroom mix of the SWEET REAPER venomized experience,
we throw in some WIPERS & M.O.T.O for that good trip, along with the
always very original sounds of SWEET REAPER. From the depths of space
all the way to your turntable, its World Contact day! |

REAPER
"Microdose" EP
SWEET REAPER are Seth, Sasha and Danny from Ventura, California and "Microdose" is their first 7" 45 rpm to date. We´re haunted, on a `Reaper hyperloop since early 2020 and there is no terrestrial exit to this. We´re ready to be shot to the the moon with the SWEET REAPER über-anthems hit machine! Join the ride of this tomb-skating surfpunk addiction! Four new & exclusive songs The microdose effectiveness is proofed in double-blind, placebo-controlled ALIEN SNATCH! rock and roll trials! On the one side of the planet they play "Coward" and the scorching "Liar", both are from the "Closer Still" album sessions. On the cold side of the moon they play "Drink The Poison" and "Like the way". It doesnt matter where you spend the dark night, power-pop-psychosis will get you! Killer artwork again by Seth. |

"Sidekick" LP
|
SWEET REAPER invasion
#2! They got dropped by a new republic spaceship right into a tempel of
the polynesian-power pop death cult. Sidekick is another confession between
the skating SPITS, the RADIOACTVITY jet stream and the graverobbin´
HEX DISPENSERS and an evocation of insanely well written 45rpm power pop
punk pearls. The themes range from UFOs to black widows and you can chew
on bubblegum, astro-mushrooms and broken surf boards until the beach blows
up. |

"Closer Still" LP
|
That
beach monster has some WIPERS/RAMONE genes, but the thriving bass lines
of Danny and Sasha (MASSENGER) booming drums of LOFI-ness are utter deadly
tentacles turning around you when veteran singer/guitarist Seth Pettersen
piercing, exploding vocals will poison you like snake-bites. The insanely
loud dark-out-of-the-tomb down-tuned punk sound with one of most devilish
catchy howled-out vocals the record is the resurgence of the infection
we got with the HEX DISPENSERS first record. As if this is not devastating
enough, the witch brewage puts them right next to some more mighty monsters,
Seth write and sing overwhelming pop punk hymns which we´ve only
heard by RADIOACTIVITY's Jeff lately ( "Faster Getaway", "Sad
Eyes") and they sweep skate parks with SPITS-y stompers like "Living
Hell" or "S X C". Top ten record of 2020 contender from
ALIEN SNATCH! If we go surfing, it´s gonne be a SWEET REAPER surfboard
- killer artwork by the band! This album hit us like a brick on lockdown,
such an shredding diy gem and a true aural offering of the ALIEN SNATCH!
U.F.O League. Remarkable first vinyl by SWEET REAPER, surely not the last!
Comes with double sided insert, 100 copies on red clear vinyl, mail order
only.
