\"\"<\/a>One beacon of light for music fans worldwide throughout this sorry Covid-19 mess has to be the website Bandcamp. It\u2019s given us a veritable treasure trove of new stuff to discover these past six months (The Hip Priests, Bob Vylan, Division Of Laura Lee, Stay Voiceless and Phoxjaw to name but a few of those all getting some of my shilling) plus to top it all off they also went and set up \u201cfee waiver days\u201d to further support their clientele currently unable to work.<\/p>\n

Now that to me really is keeping with the true spirit of punk rock, so it\u2019s kind of apt that Scott \u2018Deluxe\u2019 Drake a veritable legend of the US punk rock scene has decided to utilize the platform to launch his new band Guerrilla Teens.<\/p>\n

Having already released a contender for album of the year in the shape of \u2018Bats From Planet Skull\u2019 (via the then already disbanded Lovesores) back in April, Scott has wasted little time in bringing us Guerrilla Teens \u2013 formed once again out of Portland Oregon by members of The Humpers, Lovesores, Suicide Notes, Magick Gardens, Epoxies, 8 Foot Tender and Sex Crime, with the band line up consisting of Guerrilla Deluxe aka Scott Drake on vocals, Anna Bananas aka Anna Anderson on bass and vocals, Deaf Jeff aka Jeff Fieldhouse on guitar and vocals, Tim Panzee aka Tim Connolly on drums and vocals and finally Saul Teen aka Saul Koll on guitar.<\/p>\n

Originally released via Bandcamp in staggered bite-size segments across consecutive months \u2018All Our Hits\u2019 is all the band\u2019s Covid-19 demos, together in one convenient package, however in saying this the most immediate thing that hits you from the first guitar chime of opener \u2018Dillinger Red\u2019 is just how NOT demo sounding these tracks actually are. Each of the ten tracks bristling with uneasy low-slung guitar energy, the bass and drums pumping out hypnotic rhythms over which Scott works his trademark sneering vocal magic.<\/p>\n

Take one listen to the likes of \u2018Tell Me What To Do\u2019, \u2018Super Aces\u2019 or \u2018Black Weather\u2019 and you\u2019ll feel the immediate need to self-isolate with this album on constant rotation.\u00a0 It\u2019s infectious and dangerous and if it does ever get a physical release it absolutely demands the full gatefold vinyl treatment just so you can lie on your bed, headphones cranked, staring dreamily into the band members bloodshot eyes.<\/p>\n

Straight outta the Covid-19 garage, Guerrilla Teens really are a full throttle sonic assault on the senses \u2013 a 100% ballad free zone, which in these anxious times, really is music to my (perma-ringing) ears<\/p>\n

Looking ahead Guerrilla Teens have already stated (right here on RPM<\/a>) that post lockdown they would love to tour the UK and Europe just to kick the living shit out of Boris Johnson, plus of course play \u2018All The Hits\u2019. So, please make sure you all click on the link below \u2013 go purchase your download and let\u2019s make this happen!!!<\/p>\n
