Bubblegum Rock’n’Roll made in Canada! Die BAMBIES aus Montreal halten ihr Versprechen: Summer soon. Endless Summer, Jahreszeiten-unabhängig, mit diesen 12 Songs klappt das auch im kältesten Winter. Ewige Punk Rock-Sommerzeit auf RAMONES-Basis, wilde Teenage Party mit First Class-Harmonien, straighten Chords, zackigem Beat und diesem unschlagbaren Good Mood-Feeling. Das frühere Material der Band („Red guitar“ 7“ etc.) versprühte noch einen sympathisch-schrammeligen TOY DOLLS-Charme, auf ihrem ersten Longplayer wurde jetzt der Power Blast zugeschaltet, ein Big Bang injiziert/produziert. Resultat: 27 Minuten Kick ass-Strandvergnügen!

After the success of their two monster 45s on the US label BLACK LUNG and their EP on the ''Mighty Apple'', the crusaders of rawk and roll mayhem are now going to conquer the whole planet with their longawaited debut-album ''Big Bobby rocks & his nightcaps roll''. Hailing from Norfolk,Virginia, the band that features ex members of the M-80?S and the CANDY SNATCHERS, recorded 15 brandnew tracks for this album, which can be described best as a wild rockin? rollercoaster ride through the garages of the last four decades. Influenced by the rock?n?roll invasion of the Fifties, the teen-punk spirit of the Sixties and the aggression of the punk-rock of the Seventies, Bobby and his drunken bunch will kick ass and certainly take no prisoners. Just imagine Jerry Lee Lewis and Jeff Conolly?s DMZ would jam with with the CYNICS and got even joined by the SWINGIN?NECKBREAKERS and you know you can expect the hell of a smokin? slab?o?wax.

engl.: Power-pop& garage-punk get hitched! Led by singer/guitarist/songwriter Evan Fosterand keyboardist Nick C., Seattle based band the BOSS MARTIANS release their fifth album, ''The Set Up''. Produced by Johnny Sangster (YOURG FRESH FELLOWS, THE POSIES) and mixed by Jack Endino (NIRVANA, ZEN GUERRILLA, SOUNDGARDEN, HOT HOT HEAT), ''The Set Up'' is the BOSS MARTIANS most accomplished record,integrating all aspects of the band?s musical personalities: power-pop, garage, punk, Pacific Northwest Soul and rock?n?roll. The album?s 13 songs feature Evan Foster?s muscular vocals (compared to SMALL FACES? SteveMarriott, the BUZZCOCKS? Pete Shelley and Elvis Costello) and his stellar CHEAPTRICK-meets-punk guitar-playing, as well as Nick C.?s Hammond, synth andVox-Jaguar keyboard work (he?s the Jon Lord of the garage-punk scene!). ''The Set Up'' spotlights the band?s best material to date. Songs such as the anthemic''I am your radio'', the pining pop love letter ''Oh, Angela'' and the frenzied ''Kill my telephone'' are instant power-pop classics, while Angus-and-Malcolminspired ''Stress case'', the electric and catchy ''I wanna be your addiction'' and the assailing title track break new garage-punk ground. With ''The Set Up'', the BOSS MARTIANS nail their reputation as one of the best rock?n?roll bands on the scene today..

engl.: Just imagine: a dynamic rock?n?roll band, combining the most captivating elements of the mid-60?s British Invasion and the late 70?s new wave, occupying a really cool DMZ between the WHO, the HOLLIES, the ROMANTICS and the RAMONES, playing live shows that convince you that you?ve witnessed the most exciting rockin?pop combo on the whole friggin?planet, and making records that fully capture the giddy thrill of those live shows. Now imagine that all started 25 years ago,and you never even heard of the band responsible - until now. The band is the FLASHCUBES - the great lost power-pop group of the 70?s, an act now rightly referred to as ''legendary'' by pundits who know what they?re talking about. And now, the FLASHCUBES are back, with a brand new studio album with the self descriptive title ''Brilliant!''. The band started in 1977 in Syracuse, NY recorded just two singles, including one of thee power-pop classics ''Christi girl'' and sadly broke up in 1980. Through the years their legend grew and by the early 90?s more people had heard of the FLASHCUBES than had ever actually heard them.When RHINO RECORDS included ''Christi girl'' on a power-pop retrospective called ''Come out and play'', the FLASHCUBES decided it was time to live up to their legend. The band released a CD anthology called ''Bright lights'' in 1997 and hit the road again and played in New York City, Boston, Los Angeles and even Japan, where they recorded an amazing live document called ''Raw power-pop - Live in Japan'' which was released later on AIR MAIL RECORDINGS. The album shows the band as energetic and invigorating as they were when they used to share the stage withthe RAMONES, the JAM, the RUNAWAYS, the ROMANTICS and the POLICE. That pointis brought home with ''Brilliant!'', the first real studio album of the FLASHCUBES? long brilliant career. Bursting out 12 new original tunes,''Brilliant!'' makes the case that not only were the FLASHCUBES one of the greatest power-pop groups to make the scene in the late 70?s, they?re still one of the very best around. An opening cover of the EDDIE & THE HOT RODS classics ''Do anything you wanna do'' serves as both a statement of intent and agauntletthrown. Who could resist such a powerful call to arms? Who would wanna resist? Brilliant. Legendary.
