As Reviewed By Mister Esquire.
American proto-punk/power pop/pub rock/garage.
awesomeow! unearthed recordings, '78-'81.
a power pop missing link between American punk (proto-punk) and the 80's paisley underground. it was really hard picking 'Purr-Fect' tracks =every track kills.
MR. ESQ. SEZ: MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW.
FCC WARNING: #3 =NIGGER.
SOUNDS LIKE: DICTATORS, DAMNED, CHEAP TRICK, 20/20, SHOES, FASTBACKS, MOTORS, EDDIE AND THE HOT RODS, ZEROS, PLIMSOULS, ET AL.
PLAY: ANY/ALL/RANDOMEOW/NOW HIT THE SCATCHIN' POST.
1. PURR-FECT II (TIE): fast, upbeat, bashy pop punk. Britty, pubby. breaking glass ending.
2. sounds like Eddie &The Hot Rods.
3. FCC WARNING: NIGGER (context: 'i'm the nigger white honkie jew all wrapped in one.' repeats.) piano -I like piano! menace. Boomtown Rats.
4. starts with schoolbell alarm clock(?), Teen Esquire yawn, zippo lights a cigarette. simple garage pop. ends with sirens.
5. PURR-FECT II (TIE): fast Britty stuff ala Lurkers, Flys, Jam, et al.
6. PURR-FECT II (TIE): upbeat, rockin', snotty like a mighty suburban house kitten (my power animal.)
7. vintage 80's reenactment of dirty 60's garage.
8. neo-surfy, psychy. Britty.
9. run o' mill. Shoes.
10. upbeat, Britty. Eddie & The Hot Rods.
11. sweet. boy yearns for girl. Shoes.
12. dirty garage ala early Replacements.
13. voices of interview starts: one's on helium, the others on 'ludes. fuzzy garage/Brit punk.
14. PURR-FECT: live recording. dirty, poppy. you can hear and feel the sweat flying into the mic.
=fucking kills!
