    GYM TONIC

    Sanitary Situations

    [engl] The six new songs on Sanitary Situations continue where Gym Tonic started their way to the top with the 2019 full length Good Job. Like their long-time touring siblings Lassie, they know, that it is a long way (to the top). But the proof, that they're on the right track is right here. Drawing inspiration from their everyday lives or the world around, the new record is their usual merging of post-punk with new wave and 80’s synth music, worshipping (not copying) their masterminds DEVO. It includes themes such as addiction, contagious diseases, sexual harassment and the relations between human mind and technology. At times comical, satirical or tragic their songs are always very lively and floorfillers. Gym Tonic: now more than ever.

    LASSIE

    Collected Cassettes

    [engl] LASSIE kinda sounds like if LOST SOUNDS were more into the B-52’S than GARY NUMAN. Super-snotty and non-cloyingly goofy, LASSIE is a rare beast indeed. There’s not a bummer track here, but “Phon

    Hornhaut ist der beste Handschuh

    [engl] Grade A Deutschpunk synth-trash. These four songs sound like a bull in a Korgshop. Barked German vocals, off-kilter twists and turns, it's bizarre, fun, aggressive music. Obviously made by weirdos
