Having avidly followed those Manx rockers Mad Daddy, and as I live in France, it was a no brainer for me to purchase this ear-rattling compilation album from French label Pigm\u00e9 Records. This is the second volume of garage rock goodness, and while it includes Mad Daddy\u2019s most recent single, \u2018Road Racer\u2019, they are in good company from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was only previously aware of  Swiss rockers The Jackets, whose inclusion of \u2018Queen Of Pill\u2019 gives The Fuzztones a run for their money. I see they are playing Paris in September with The Darts (USA), who feature here with \u2018Intersex\u2019, and that is a tempting double bill, as they really suit each other. French rockers La Flingue offer \u2018Selbsmodell\u2019, while Belgium is ably presented by \u2018I Ain\u2019t Dead\u2019 by Chiff Chaffs and their swelling organ (ooer).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Strange Baby\u2019 by The Go Go Killers (USA) sounds like it\u2019s sung in an unknown language, but is a pleasing clout to the head, while \u2018It\u2019s A Girl\u2019 by Strange Attractor (Canada) will get you up and dancing. \u2018Stab Me\u2019 by Slocks (Italy) is altogether darker, as you\u2019d imagine, and Mad Daddy rev things up with the aforementioned \u2018Road Racer\u2019. I\u2019m determined to see them one day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Side two kicks off with \u2018Confusion\u2019 by The Cogs (Italy), proving that three chords and a lot of energy still works well, and \u2018See That Girl\u2019 by The Mocks (Netherlands) is very groovy, baby. They are definitely worth researching further. Sinister Six (USA) obviously have an extensive Cramps collection, if \u2018Pretending To Be High Class\u2019 is anything to go by, very nice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Veneno Barato\u2019 by Nestter Donuts (Spain) pounds along, probably with a sore throat by now. Short and snappy. The Fadeaways (Japan) provide the addictive \u2018She\u2019s A Rat Trap\u2019, another top tune, and Davilla 666 (Argentina) provide the grungy \u2018Chloe Sevigny\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For once, I could afford the vinyl! As it didn\u2019t include the crippling customs tax, not coming from the UK, but you can possibly pick up a copy via Mad Daddy\u2019s Bandcamp page. Get on it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
