Inadapte
[engl] Founded in Helsinki in 2018, The Mike Bell Cartel is a mix of the best aspects of 60's garage rock and pop: guitars ring, melodies seduce, fuzz growls, farfisa rumbles, stammer rumbles and rhythm takes your feet down. The band includes familiar faces from the Helsinki underworld: Miikka Siira aka Mike Bell (Mike Bell & The Belltones), Pekka Laine (The Hypnomen), Ville Särmä (Dancing Bear), Samuel Abaijón (The Valkyrians) and Aapee Heinola (Hard Action). The Mike Bell Cartell’s debut album will be released in early 2022.- Format

Summer Soon
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!- Format

BIG BOBBY&HIS NIGHTCAPS
Big Bobby& his nightcapsroll
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.- Format

BOSS MARTIANS
The set up
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..- Format

Buzzsaws
[engl] BUZZSAWS is the debut album by BROWER, the solo project of Nat Brower, resident of Ridgewood Queens and erstwhile NANCY and METALLEG compatriot, already championing the spirits and sounds of our most cherished Punk and Rock musical varietals the world over. After last spring’s Little Big EP (DIG007), BROWER is back, and the fire behind that ass is simply inextinguishable! Enter BUZZSAWS – a glam’d-out glitter-bomb of fuzz guitars and giant vocal melodies within the Venn diagram of Bolan, Bowie and Brett (Smiley). Like Little Big, each song is jammed full of sugarcoated harmonies, laser-beam licks and unearthly hooks. Unlike LITTLE BIG, BROWER shows his teeth on BUZZSAWS – and they’re gnarly, thanks to all the sugarcoated harmonies – with several dbs of gain and big city grit added to the mix. From the first crack! of the snare on “Real Girl”, the album opener, a barrage of big guitars and bonafied boogie – missing even in this year’s finer Rock’n’roll offerings – takes hold for a satisfying spin the whole way thru. Loyal glam-o-philes will clap their feet and stomp their hands to “Hacksaw” and “U N Him”, two of BROWER’s heaviest headbangers to date, pulling together the swagger of T. Rex or Iron Virgin with the whirring guitars and sneering ‘tude of Hubble Bubble. While “My Father’s Name Was Cat” – a storybook ode to our animal ancestors and dads who look like Cat Stevens – offers a psychedelic respite compliments of tripped-out, blissed-out synth layers; “Better Days” showcases BROWER’s tender side – in full display on LITTLE BIG – replete with dulcet sitar strums. AMANAZ covers closeout each side of the album, for two Zam Rock heavies re-interpreted as indispensible power pop bangers, epitomizing the eclectic Rock’n’roll DNA evolving in the BROWER petri dish. Recorded and performed entirely by the BROWER boy himself, Nat has somehow captured the over-produced gleam of the glam era from his bedroom home studio. In the flesh, Nat has recruited the perfect band (featuring members of DIRTY FENCES and VELVETEEN RABBIT) to get the BROWER show on the road, heralding the coming year, THE YEAR OF THE BUZZSAWS…- Format

In September 2007 they get to the studio again to record their second album “Inlet”. After searching for a new record company for a while, COOL FROG signs up with Rock Indiana and in February 2009 “Inlet” is finally Released along with a big and new tour to present the album which takes the band to play in venues abroad and overseas. In September 2009 COOL FROG were picked as the winners of the first contest “Talentos Puro Cuatro” of CUATRO TV Spanish Channel. Such career had to be backed by someone else and that’s it! In February 2011 “Inlet” has been re-released on Clifford Records on a vinyl edition. Mainly influenced by the New Wave, COOL FROG gets also touches from the 60’s, the 70’s... Their music is defined as Power Wave; Pop melodies join a very Punk-New Wave bases mixed with 60’s, 70’s and 80’s influences though. The outcome of this eclectic mixture comprises COOL FROG’s style.- Format

Come On/Cutie Named Judy
Come On is a high energy R & B infected garage punker with a beat that just doesn??t quit! Manic singing, slashing guitar, driving tempo; this one is the title track of their new album. The flip, Cutie Named Judy, is a non-LP cut that was recorded live. It is even faster and more furious than the A-side clocking in at under 2:00.- Format

Mural Theatre Seattle August 25 1986
[engl] We are always excited about our new releases but this one is pretty pretty special. Oh-my-god-I- cannot-believe-it special. One of our all-time favorite bands is releasing a record on our label. Boom! Early in the 90ties as I dived into our little punkrock microcosm I found their ZU?CKER album and I immediately knew that this is a special band for me, too sugary for the punks, too rocknroll for the poppunks haha, to weird for the now emerging grunge scene, but still, my little pocketband I told everyone about. And with Glitterhouse Germany running the Sub Pop Europe business, all of their records were available and not expensive. I never saw them live, although I had tickets to their show in Innsbruck, Austria, when they were touring with Pearl Jam, but as fate would have it, their van broke down the day before in Milano, Italy. Goddamnit! “Trouser Press” once said the FASTBACKS were “always good but never trendy”, now THAT sounds like a perfect fit to Bachelor Records. This live show from 1986 (!!!) captures HOW GOOD they were, how fun their shows must have been and how much fun they had on stage. After Kurt Bloch himself remastered this show for a CD release, we thought this has to be pressed on vinyl of course too! And here you have this whole show (with the exception of the first two songs, the CD version has the audience recording of it, but it is not on the LP, which features the whole multitrack recordings)- Format

FLASH CUBES
Brilliant
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.- Format

FRONT PAGE REVIEW
Mystic Soldiers
[engl] Definitive vinyl edition of this lost album from the Bosstown Sound scene. Front Page Review rubbed shoulders with bands like Eden's Children, Beacon Street Union and Strawberry Alarm Clock. With legendary producer Alan Lorber behind the controls, they recorded in 1968 a whole album for MGM which was never released at the time. ''Mystic Soldiers'' is a prime example of late 60s US psychedelic rock, featuring a young Steve Cataldo (Saint Steven, Nervous Eaters) on songwriting / vocals. All the right ingredients are featured here: wah- fuzz guitars, organ, phasing, effects? Master tape sound, two bonus tracks, new cover design with unseen band photo, insert with detailed liner notes by Jeremy Cargill (Got Kinda Lost / Ugly Things) telling the story of the band for the first time.- Format

Lose Everything
[engl] After ten long years away from the studio, Gentleman Jesse returns to us bearing a new ten-track album that benefits greatly from the wisdom and heartbreak that a decade of life on this planet affords. An album titled "Lose Everything" is bound to have its dark side, and behind the powerful melodies and jangly guitars a hint of sadness hangs in the air. But Jesse makes a bad time a good listen—after all, he's responsible for tunes like Carbonas' "Phone Booth" and his debut single "I Don't Wanna Know." While age tends to water down the output of older musicians, it's had the opposite effect on Jesse. Gone is any semblance of kitsch or power-pop convention. Also gone are his band—he's flying solo this time. What remains is a dazzling, mature earworm of a guitar-pop album. Each record comes in a matte jacket adorned with the photography of Riley McBride and also includes a lovingly assembled booklet featuring lyrics and original woodcut prints made by the Gentleman himself.- Format
