To round it off there’s the acoustic ‘Song For Sadie’ an old Suspect PArts track but redone here making this a more eclectic offering than Maurers LA Drugz or Suspect Parts but none the less desirable.\u00a0 Don’t dilly dally as they say in the olden days\u00a0 get it here<\/a>\u00a0or on one sided vinyl 12″ from Wanda Records Here<\/a><\/p>\n Buy Here\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0\/\u00a0Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Relentlessly good band and with a new album on the way these are good times for fans of high octane Rock and Fuckin’ Roll Grindhouse Style.\u00a0 Bring it on.

<\/a>Jenny – ‘Same’ (Wanda Records)\u00a0<\/strong>When we saw that this band was fronted by LA Drugz Justin Maurer we had to go and crack it open and crank up the volume and from the first clashing chords of the harmonious ‘Stupid Band’ we smiled knowing we were in the presence of a power pop genius. But with five tunes on this release, it could only get better as the dreamy ‘Rose City’ took us in an upwards trajectory as far as moods go towards that layered vocal chorus it was already a must-have new record. ‘Cockroach Tea’ is more power-pop goodies leaning more towards the pop and then the 60s infused acoustic Thunders melodic ‘Alright With Me’ it has a really early Who mod like quality if it’s possible to mash up some Thunders, meets The Who if it’s not possible then it has just been invented.<\/p>\n<\/a>Stiff Richards – ‘Going Numb’ (Legless Records)<\/strong> With two albums in the bag Australias Stiff Richards are hot property.\u00a0 If you managed to get a hold of their debut album first time around then you’re good if you managed to pick up a repress then, well-done pat yourself on the back.\u00a0 Then came ‘Dig’ which was also pretty spectacular to be fair and seemingly unable to do any wrong they sneak out this digital single to let us all know they’re still alive and ready to go (hopefully) with album number three due in October it looks like a winter assault from Melbourne’s finest and we can’t get enough from the southern hemisphere who are leading the way with some awesome punk rock.<\/p>\n<\/a>Death By Unga Bunga – ‘Trouble’ (Jansen Records)<\/strong> The second in a series of new singles set to be released in the coming months.\u00a0 These Norweigan Nutters have got a slice of summer sunshine in the shape of ‘Trouble’ With a great hook over that steady beat its catchier than a global pandemic.\u00a0 once this one lodges itself into your head it’s not coming out and you’ll be muttering the lyrics for days wondering just who the hell it is.\u00a0 That’s Death By Unga Bunga that is and with the news of more to come there is light at the end of this pandemic that’s for sure and it’s coming from Norway and not some lab in England it might be power pop it might be death metal but one thing for sure it’ll have the DBUB logo on it.\u00a0 Get it here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>Killer Hearts – ‘Get Some’ (Spaghetty Town Records) <\/strong>Houston we have a problem.\u00a0 We’re not getting enough Rock and Fucking Roll and that’s a problem.\u00a0 What isn’t a problem is when Killer Hearts this is the first glimpse of what’s coming on their long player ‘Skintight Electric’.\u00a0 Lots of loose riffs and oohs and arghs and some of the best sleazy Rock and Roll since Flash Boys and The Adjusters were about.\u00a0 Go Get some high octane Rock and Roll if you know what’s good for you! Buy\u00a0Here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>Guerrilla Teens – ‘Tell Me What To Do’ (Self Release)<\/strong> Another day another Guerrilla Teens record gets released via Bandcamp.\u00a0 This week’s offering is a right thumper by the name of ‘Tell Me What To Do’ backed by ‘Hurry Up’. One is in your face and bouncing on its toes like a young hooligan the other is a more laid back confident slow burner but both ooze quality and will make for awesome tracks when these weekly offerings finally get pressed by some awesome record label onto a slab of plastic to nestle alongside Those Humpers, Lovesores records you’ve got.\u00a0\u00a0buy Here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>14 Units – ‘Listen’ (Self Release)\u00a0<\/strong>This is the lockdown-busting debut release from 14 Units who cram five tunes into this debut EP, Five songs about drinking, getting old, murder, regret, not drinking and Brexit (possibly). opening with a neat uptempo twelve-bar with melody and somewhere between Frank Turner vocally and a cowpunk Quo.\u00a0 They get their jig on from a sprightly ‘Can’t Unlike You’ its melodic and uptempo and carries a decent melody.\u00a0 They certainly like to boogie and then they turn down for a more mellow knocking on heavens door progression for ‘Looks Like Rain’ which heads off down a Buffalo Tom wormhole and its probably the best track on offer with the sparse verse with just percussion before the guitars rejoin for the build-up to the chorus which is a catchy sing-along. A decent EP and first offering from 14 Units.\u00a0 Buy\u00a0Here<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>Grindhouse – ‘Ramma Damma’ (Tuff Cuff Records)\u00a0<\/strong>Melbourne must have something in the water because over the last couple of years its turning up some smoking hot records and this summer has seen that continue with those purveyors of pounding Rock and Roll Grindhouse are back in the room with some sweaty flesh pressing high octane Rock and Roll. in the shape of ‘Ramma Damma’ and ‘City High’ with its bruising riff-a-rama and moon the loon like drumming this is the dogs bollocks. If there ever was a sleeve that best described what was going on in the grooves before you ever played it then it’s this bad boy. or should that be bad girl? Rock and Roll can get you high so fuckin high and Grindhouse has the goods baby!<\/p>\n
