    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 “Phonecalls on My Deathbed” is a hit if I ever heard one; where’s Dick Clark or Rick Dees or CDs….yeah. Hey, this is why I don’t write silly but endearing spazz-wave songs. LASSIE does, they’re really good at it. “Tiger in My Tank” sounds like the fucking RONDELLES! I bet they turn a boring bar into a total fucking blast. “QT Enhancer” is a pogo party in a can. If you like C.C.T.V. or LUMPY or DEVO, I don’t see why you wouldn’t like this. I feel like if this band was from California, they’d be big, or at least “opening for the SPITS” big. So, not that big. But they should be. They’re great. - MRR

    BATTRA//

    2014 - 2017

    [engl] If I told you the career-spanning collection of Halle, German’s drum and bass duo Battra//, 2014-2017, began with a sample of Robin Williams in Good Will Hunting, you might not believe me. Or, in th

    PISSE

    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

    DISPO / TELESATAN

    s/t

    [engl] Dispo, at times, sounds like a more urgent, chaotic Death Wish Kids, certainly no easy feat if you're familiar with that band's sneering, crazed brand of streetpunk. At other times it's lu

    FIX

    More Is More

    [engl] Fix blew me away with their debut single a couple years ago – not from the music, but from the fact that they just called themselves “Fix”, blatantly swiping the name of one of the greatest Amer
