Opening with an epic introduction of the band, this fourth album of Norway's SUICIDE BOMBERS looks as good as the previous ones, kind of ZODIAC MINDWARP meets SIGUE SIGUE SPUTNIK aesthetic including glossy and colourful pictures of the band dressed in Murder Couture...Then, the song "Murder Couture" offers us some anthemic heavy rock followed by...

Norway might be famous for TURBONEGRO and black metal, but The HALLINGTONS are more influenced by American bands, especially the RAMONES ("Not My Deal") and pop punk (listen to the chorus in "Jesus Freak" or the song "Pretty Neat" that reminds me a bit of The GROOVIE GHOULIES.) There's more vocal harmonies in "The Witch"... Continue Reading →
This is the Halloween release for German record label Hound Gawd! Records, and considering the amount of blood in the artwork, it seems like the timing for this release is just perfect. Moreover, you'll find a little satanic book with the lyrics enclosed along with the download card. The duo plays heavy garage punk (drummer... Continue Reading →
Basel's Turbojugend is alive and well! BITCH QUEENS proves it with this new album full of high energy punk'n'roll songs ("City Of Class", "Vote For Pedro".) Switzerland might look nice and clean but it has its hidden perversions, and BITCH QUEENS are definitely one of those! Of course, they still sound like TURBONEGRO ("Süperböy") but...

PARADISE ALLEY (England)'s frontman Steve Vincent met PLASTIC TEARS (Finland)' frontman Miqu December in 1992 at the Hellfire club in London. These weren't the best times for rock'n'roll, but there was still a scene and both vocalists were about to start their own bands. PARADISE ALLEY... Continue Reading →
Helsinki's 70s rock influenced band The EMPIRE STRIKES are back with 12 songs. I guess opening an album with a song called "The End" is an interesting move especially when the song has a tragic and grandiloquent feel to it. Even though songs like "Danger", "Leeches, Lies and a Mighty Hoax" or"Amor Por La Vida... Continue Reading →
(-review by Moses Midnight) "Wait until I'm dead and you will see what all the fuss is about..." (-Dogs D'Amour) Hollywood Rocker, cult-figure, quick-draw artist, and suave black magician, Evad Fromme lived with the immortal and mythological, galactic kid, Alistarr from the Ultras, on Hollywood Boulevard during the late eighties/early nineties English Acid glitter daze...

(-review by Moses Midnight) What a lovely surprise! I didn't even know that anybody made bands this cool, anymore! It's just really, really good, and pretty, and heartfelt, honest songs about frustration, desire and wanting, the conscience at war with the big programming, lust in the dust, innocence and experience, when one's heart keeps calling,...
