Great Expectations
[engl] The long awaited 2nd album by Brighton´s craziest royal offspring. Instantly catchy and addictive buzzsaw UK three-chord-punky PowerPop on exactly 12 cuts. The two vocalists sing with equal measures of punk snottiness and sugary sweetness, including their unique call and response which makes the album to a true gem. But it evokes also the sound and spirit of early The Buzzcocks, The Clash and the Kinks. So a full packed ballroom where they share the stage with THE SPEEDWAYS, YUM YUMS and surely THE REFLECTORS could be a really funny international coronation at the royal court!

Take It Easy
[engl] Legendary UK Mod Punk band with a new 4 song EP. LONG TALL SHORTY… well-known for never standing still or to wallow in nostalgia. Always with a true passion to be different. Mississippi-Delta feeling with sunglasses and short trousers turns up by „Love In Vain“ – inspired during an early Monday morning hangover somewhere in Linz at the Rhine River. But by „Wish You Had Bled“ they take off the glasses, change again the short with the long trouser to make the usual noise with the typical pissed off lyrics by Tony Feedback. Completed with the splendid „I´m With Stupid“ from the last album as well the cracking „Turn It Up“ from their long out of print GIFFER record.! Strictly limited to 300 copies only.- Format

Beside of The Clique in UK, the JAYBIRDS were unanimously acclaimed the coolest Mod band on the authentic side of the Mods and R&B/ Freakbeat-Scene in Europe during the 90´s. Just in time for their 30th years anniversary this 22 song amalgamation contains all their early singles, eps and some true rarities. Smokestack Lightning, an extended 9.19 min live cut, recorded in 1995 at the 1st Beat-O-Mania festival in Munich shows in a perfect way the typical JAYBIRDS sound: authentic and rough R&B !!! Fully analogue remastered by Dennis Rux in Hamburg, housed in a gatefold sleeve designed by Murphy Morphine (Wild Evel & The Trashbones) and original band poster of this era included.- Format

The new album Split Town features 12 original songs which draw influences from 1960´s-era bands like The Kinks, The Zombies and the Yardbirds, as well as late 1970´s bands such as The Clash, The Jam and The Buzzcocks. But not to be pigeonholed, RAF branches out into more traditional PowerPop owing to a deep respect for bands like The Beatles, Squeeze and Jellyfish. There are even some surprises like a ska number reminiscent of the English Beat and The Specials or a splendid powerful R&B tune. Tally ho!!!- Format

Germany's Newest Hit Makers
[engl] The DUKES OF HAMBURG are more than just a group – they are a way of life. A way of life that has captured the imagination of the nation´s teenagers, and made them one of the most sought after groups in Beatdom. For the Dukes have their fingers on the pulse of the basic premise of “pop” music success – that its public buys sound, and the sound is what they give you with this their seventh album; a raw, exiting basic approach to Rhythm and Blues blended with their five own explosive characters. In the twenty years since the Dukes embarked on their pop career, they have not only chalked up major chart successes, but smashed attendance records on tours the length and breadth of the country. They have emerged as five well rounded intelligent talents, who will journey successfully far beyond the realms of pop music. And in this album there are fourteen good reasons why.*Andrew Loog Oldham.- Format

Lock & Key
[engl] The Sparkies are Leeds based 5 piece premier ‘New Northern’ collective. Here we go with their long anticipated debut 7“. Their brand of uptempo, uplifting Northern Soul stompers are influenced by the 45´s of the golden years but with a modern(ist) twist. „Lock & Key“ is a beautifully written track that oozes the pain and anguish in Sam´s haunting voice, perfectly accompanied by Rachel´s harmonies. In addition, „Let Me Go“ on the flip side is a floor filling track that thrusts the energy of the ‘New Northern’ scene. Exploding into life and driven by the drums & swirling Hammond organ it is groovy, uptempo, fast paced and surely in particularly upbeat mood !!- Format

"One Seven Wonders" auf der A-Seite ist ein kraftvoller 79er Mod style Knaller mit rotzigen Vocals, einer punkigen Gitarre und treibenden drums. Auf der Flipseite geht es dann etwas mehr in die Richtung Power Pop mit blubberndem Bass und handelt von dem Leben auf (ihrer) Tour. Schöne Hommage an alle beteilgten der letzten Tour.- Format

There Is Always Something
„There is Always Something“ ist nicht nur ein Albumtitel. Es beschreibt eine einjährige Phase, in der die vier Musiker der Britpop Band THE STUD ihren Weg aus dem musikalischen Treibsand Stuttgarts gefunden haben. So scheuten sie nicht den Weg nach Hamburg, um im Sixties-Ambiente der YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! Studios bei Dennis Rux analoge Klänge aufs Band zu bannen. THE STUD, ein Chilene und drei Deutsche, begannen Ende 2006 die unaufhörliche Suche nach neuen Klängen, ausgehend von Indie, Britpop und Sixties, um schließlich ihren eigenen Stil zu finden: Sie mischen die Musik von Rubber Soul und Revolver mit Schlagzeugrhythmen im Stil der Small Faces oder Kinks und würzen das Ganze mit aktuellen Klängen. Die Wurzeln der Band liegen in Barcelona und in Santiago de Chile, doch vereint die Band verschiedene Kulturen - das Deutsche, Englische, Spanische und Chilenische zu einem sehr aktuellen und individuellen Sound. T.I.A.S vereint diverse Inspirationen. Gleich zu Beginn mit „Turn Around“ und „Shake your Arms“ zeigt sich die Energie, die THE STUD immer wieder von neuem antreibt, eine ordentliche Packung Lärm, die ihren Ursprung im Garagen Punk der Sechziger Jahre findet. Danach folgt „There is always something“, der dem Album den Titel gibt und wie „Fireflies“, „Out of my mind“ und „Come“ an modernen Britrock erinnert.- Format

2009 in Weissrussland gegründete 60s-Style Beatband! Ihr Debütalbum erschien in einer sehr geringen Auflage. Die Zeichen standen auf Sturm - kurze Zeit später wurden sie von der russischen Band Cavestompers eingeladen den Support zu übernehmen. Ein Jahr später sollte ein Livealbum folgen, doch die Band zerbrach. "Early Tapes" beinhaltet eine komplette Übersicht über das Schaffen der Band. Am Anfang steht der pure 60s Beat/R&B/British Mod Sound - zwischen The Kinks, Small Faces, The Who und natürlich den Beatles.- Format

AUNT NELLY
Same
AUNT NELLY ist „from“ The Clique, über viele Jahre die beste 60´s Band Englands. Nachdem Bassist Phil Otto einige Zeit bei den Pretty Things und Holly Goligthly verbracht hatte, rekrutierte er einige seiner alten Weggefährten und Aunt Nelly war geboren. Der Sound ist souliger geworden, bestens zu beschreiben als eine Mischung aus Northern Soul, R&B und 60´s Psychedelica. Abgerundet mit einer funkigen Gitarre und der bluesigen Hammond Orgel wird hier ein Dancefloor Smasher nach dem Anderen zelebriert. Und um die Songs in ein authentisches 60´s Gewand zu verpacken wurden sie in den legendären Ranscombe Studios (Graham Day, Billy Childish, Len Price 3) eingespielt .- Format
