Action Speaks Louder Than Words


MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA

THE INTERCONTINENTAL PLAYBOYS began in 1998, debuting at a private party at the Hollywood Hotel (Surry Hills, Australia). Unslowly, and surely, and with a head of steam, word rapidly spread about these wild yet suave newcomers with an unlikely but voodooly sweaty rock n roll manifesto. THE INTERCONTINENTAL PLAYBOYS are not at all from a penthouse suite (as their name suggests to some) their inimitable sound emanates from a shadowy yet strangely inviting trapdoor within a garage that THE INTERCONTINENTAL PLAYBOYS earthly host (Sydney, Australia) can barely comprehend.






Charlotte's Remains

DORTMUND, GERMANY

If Vincent Price, Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff had ever thought about forming a band, they would surely have been the most important influence on the X-RAY HARPOONS' sound. Actually, these five "followers of fuzz" from Bonn themselves seem to have emanated from an old b-movie, and watching them live on stage offers one the same spine-chilling, blood-curdling pleasure that used to draw large audiences in genre classics like “Plan 9 from outer space” or “Night of the living dead” back in the 50's/60's. Organ-driven and fuzz-drenched, the HARPOONS’ music is dedicated to the pre-punk/garage-sound of the mid-60's and in particular to the neo-garage sound of the 80's/90's. Influences? This might turn out to be an endless list, but to name a few bands: The Music Machine, The Brogues, We The People, The Fuzztones, The Gruesomes, The Gravedigger V, and so on... DO THE MUMMY!








Ghost Clinic



HOUTHALEN-HELCHTEREN, BELGIUM


Bastardi di Blues is a Dutch bluesrocktrio from Limburg, the most southernly part of The Netherlands. The band was formed in the harsh winter of 2009, when the world was being hit hard by the most severe economic crisis since the Depression era of the 1930's. Hard Times. Down and Out. Such times used to form the cradle of blues. As far as Bastardi di Blues (Italian for 'Blues Bastards') were concerned, they were cradles of blues yet again. Bastardi (originally Bastardo di Blues) was a frivolous concept that came up during dinner in Rome in the summer of 2008 when guitarist Johan van de Beek decided to pick up his guitar after years of not playing. Seeing a street musician playing blues on a Piazza made him change his mind. After posting some solo webcam music clips on websites like Youtube.com and Dutchbased Hyves.nl he was spotted and contacted by drummer Rene Vlems who suggested a jam session to feel out if there was 'a connection' between the two of them. The mutual love for the old bluesmasters and the enormous respect for innovators of the genre like Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan immediately brought them together. Soon after their first session they were joined by bassplayer Monique Demarteau who completed what sounded like a promising and solid powertrio. Monique Demarteau played in bands like Harvey Wallbanger, Black Rabbit and The Wanted. Rene Vlems played in various jazz and (blues)rock bands and worked with The Bonel Band, Deepwater, The Wanted, Skinwheels, Still Believe and is currently also involved with Dizzy Robby and The Blues Raiders. Johan van de Beek, who learned to play guitar 'by ear', however, has little stage-experience. Bastardi di Blues are currently building a set of classic electric rock and blues classics played in a hard hitting style, interspersed with Hendrix-psychedelica and samples of 'outré' genres like punk rock, urban and jazz. Ghost Clinic is recorded in June-July 2009 at the Art Sound Studio in Houthalen-Helchteren (Belgium), engineered and produced by Jean-Pierre Kerkhofs.














No Tengo Nada (My Nothing)

ARGENTINA

At this point, let’s say Los Peyotes is the band that revitalized the sixties garage rock in South America. These 5 Peruvian-Argentine boys with a double life, go out at night to do the best thing they can do: garage and caveman rock and roll. Los Peyotes was founded, approximately, in 1996 and since that, they have never left off to performance. Its music is shot by instruments vintage and valve amps that next to their aesthetic a go go, causes cocktail hallucinogenic exclusive for collectors and understood. Sound fuzz, tremolo, vibrato and farfisa organ is guaranteed. Its performance is the best, pure gratuitous savagery with a public wild accomplice and that together gives to the frame to true sixties troglodytic parties. They are voracious all-consuming of all garage music of the Sixties.








Everything You Got

MADRID, SPAIN

The Holdens story began long ago, originally a four-piece combo, it wasn't until 2000 when they finally settled for a definitive line up. All members hail from bands such as Los Potros, Nuggets, Golden Zombies or Los Nitros. Taking inspiration from the mid-60s sounds and the late 80's garage boom, The Holdens began working out an original take on their shared influences, producing their particular blend of 60's-garage-punk. Soon, the band was playing the local circuit burning a set of infectious originals and a great choice of cover tunes from their favourite bands. In a short two years, the band cranked out two excellent demos, where their sound clearly begins to acquire a more 60's edge. Later on the Holdens recorded for Animal Records the critically acclaimed "Ready To Shake!", another brilliant demo containing five energetic tracks and produced by Paco Pozas (Los Imposibles). Shortly after that, back in 2002, Lucia de Montis, who had played with the spanish Nuggets and toured with the Cynics at their Spanish gigs, joined the Holdens to release their debut cd by Animal Records, the historic label from Spain that has released several splendid garage / beat / psyche / mod albums and 45s in the past by the best Spanish combos. In "Dancing with the mammoths", produced by Fernando Pardo (Sex Museum), the Holdens perform a solid and magnificent sound full of jangly guitars, sweet harmonies and farfisa grooves proving once more that the Spanish garage and beat scene is one of the most interesting in the whole world as they have managed to continue the great Spanish tradition of bands like Sex Museum, Flashback V, Flechazos, Imposibles and Doctor Explosion! Back in 2006 they put out their second album, this time also in vinyl, called "Do it right", where they shoot their fuzz-torpedos to the unsuspected world and deliver 10 tracks of pure teen beat brilliance with a distinctive pop appeal and again a big fat farfisa sound.







Black Box

SANTA BARBARA, CALIFORNIA

The best way to describe the Deadbillys would have to be by mixing Johnny Cash, The Misfits, Merle Haggard, The Cramps. Then after that you get the 3 piece from Santa Barbara, California. Members Bobby Dickson on Guitar and Vocals, his wife Heather Dickson on Washtub Bass and Vocals, and Alfred Smith on Upright Drums make up the trio. If you want a band that's going to give you a hoedown or a slampit, then THE DEADBILLYS are your band.








Heathen Set

PARIS, FRANCE

The Norvins were formed in Paris in 2004 by four gentlemen obsessed by all the great mid 60's garage and beat bands from all around the world. Line up is Edouard (vocals, tambourines, harmonica), Franck (Harmony H22-1, Vox Sidewinder IV, Burns and Fender Coronado basses), Pascal (Mosrite Celebrity and MK V & Telecaster guitars & Vox AC10 JMI 1964, backing vocals), Gerry (drums) and Jerome (CRB and farfisa organs, Yamaha YC-20). We garantee pure vintage 60s garage punk right from the nuggets to the guts. Sharper than razors, this heavy swing and fuzzy scream is here to make you shake your moneymakers and rip off your ears.










Tantric Pretender

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA

Rudi first heard The Prancing Ponies when Stella played him "Tantric Pretender" on her KXLU radio show, Stray Pop. The Ponies, it seems, were a short-lived project evolving from Sex With Lurch that soon morphed into the Barbarellatones, 'though luckily not before releasing their album, "Trashe du Blanc," which includes the song the head Pony Robbie Quine describes as "A tribute to how cool I think the Fuzzers are."









Ward 81


ATHENS, GREECE

Fiummy Lee were formed in 2000 and consist of four members : Nick Makrakis - Vocals. Kyriakos Romios - Guitars/Bass George Makopoulos Bass/Guitars Dimitris Papakonstantinou – Drums. It was not before 2002 that Fiummy Lee decided to write their own songs, songs that led to a first demo attempt in 2003.The result was not really satisfactory but Fiummy Lee kept on going doing what they enjoy more. Playing music.They have appeared in the Anti-Racist Festival in Thessalonica in June of 2005, in Small Music Theatre in 2003 and in April of 2006 and in many other circumstances and happenings such as political festivals, occupied universities etc. Their garage grunge and rock and roll sound comes with very intense and powerful live appearances. In summer of 2006 they finished the recordings and the artwork of their latest demo cd “Decidophobia”, which any of you can obtain by contacting the band. In August of 2007 they re-recorded their version for Ward 81 by the legendary Fuzztones (previously featured in their self-titled demo) in Fragile Studio in Athens.






She's Wicked

THESSALONIKI, GREECE

The Bullets were formed in the eastern side of Thessaloniki in 1988. It was the time that rockabilly was very popular all over Europe. Although the rockabilly revival movement, which started in the 70s, lasted until the late 90s, the Bullets have managed to be active up until today. During all these difficult years the band has performed live countless times, creating wild and memorable moments for their fans. The Bullets music style is without any doubt… rock’n’roll. Obviously their major influences are the trash/desperate rockabilly of the 50s and the primitive surf sounds of the 60s. Other influences include doo-wop, garage and british teddy boy rock. The result of the mixture of the aforementioned styles is not out of date thanks to the group’s vibrant playing and its fresh approach to its music. The Bullets’ philosophy is based on having fun, love for life and being optimistic. Certainly these are the reasons why they will keep on being together for a very long time!








Idol Chatter




MONTEVIDEO, URUGUAY

Culpables (means Guiltys in english) results as a combination of garage rock and hardcore, based on punk blood. From Uruguay´s black hole, Culpables are four demons in their mid twenties, playing since they were 16 or so. Excessive fuzz use, darkness and pessimist lyrics about the world they live in define Culpables. Due to the lack of local rock culture, they have been forced to look into neighbour countries to find labels who would edit their records. In fact, all of their releases are from Argentina and Brazil “En los nervios” and “Va por mal camino” (Rastrillo Records, Laja Records), a split-CD with Motosierra called "Hot Music For Hot Chicks" also editted in Argentina by Rastrillo Records and one EP “O Coraçao eletrico dos culpables” editted in Brazil.









Yeah Babe!

TORINO, ITALY

The Sick Rose were arguably the first European garage band to have the impact globally in the same manner as The Chesterfield Kings (from the Timothy Gassen's book Knights of Fuzz 1980-1995). Lead garage band in the Eighties, The Sick Rose with his fuzz and farfisa attack impressed the audience with full powered gigs, since the first released Faces LP, dated 1986. The band performed alive with some legends of the genre (The Fuzztones, Dream Syndicate, The Nomads, Stomach Mouths and so on) and produced four full records but disbanded in 1990.








What You Don't Know

DONCASTER, UK

"Flight 13" was originally formed early 2003 in Doncaster England. The line up however has changed completely many times since then with Bob Hughes remaining as the only original member. They have played and recorded in clubs/pubs & "New Untouchables" mod rallys and similar 60's influenced events, and supported some big names such as, The Inspiral Carpets, the Bluetones and Kasabian. Throughout this time they've attained a really good local following. In Bob's spare, he performs and records as a solo "acoustic" artist with a more "Country" feel.












The Thing

GARLAND, TEXAS?



The record label of their 45 says that it was pressed in Texas. Other than that, we know nothing about this band, except that the name has been used for several bands in the UK and USA.














Skeleton Farm


DUBLIN, IRELAND

London has The Horrors, and here's Dublin's revenge: psyched-out zombie rocker complete with all the horrorshow ingredients: the devilishly swirling Farfisa organ, the bendy guitar twangs, the singer who howls like a teenage werewolf at a beach party. The Urges may lovingly recreate the primitive garage punk sound of the 1960s, exemplified by The Count Five, The Electric Prunes and the 13th Floor Elevators, but they avoid becoming too cartoon-like, sidestepping the schlock and focusing on the flipped-out mentalism of Read the Signs, You're Gonna Find Out, The 13th Floor and So Uptight.









In Heat


FRIOLI, ITALY


THE SEXTRESS was formed in 1986 from an idea that five guys wanted to have some fun making music. The band has always gotten its inspiration from GARAGE type music with typically psychedelic tones and sounds. We played songs by legendary bands of this genre and especially truly legendary groups such as FUZZTONES, LYRES, CREEPS . After a lot of rehearsing we started playing in the local PUBS, sparking some interest in this genre. In the meantime, thanks to our “musical” maturity, which was gradually growing, we also started playing songs from other genres and rearranging them in our own EXPLOSIVE style. We started performing quite frequently both in bars and in many local musical festivals. We were also asked to play backup for more famous bands, such as THE FUZZTONES. The band has had numerous formations (eleven) but nonetheless we have always managed to go ahead with our musical “project” and are now considered to be a “rarity” in Friuli with this genre (and proud of it!!).

Long Black Hair

HAMBURG, GERMANY

IN 2001 TOMMY AND ECKI RAMÖNE FOUNDED HAMBURG RAMÖNES ON ACCOUNT OF A WEDDING PARTY. THE ORIGINAL LINEUP CONSISTED OF TOMMY ON VOCALS, ECKI ON GUITAR AS WELL AS AXEL 'WINNETOU' RAMÖNE ON BASS AND HANSI RAMÖNE ON DRUMS. THE BAND PLAYED RAMONES COVERS ONLY IN THE BEGINNING - AS THEY ALL DO - BUT TOMMY AND ECKI SOON REALISED THAT IT IS MUCH MORE FUN TO INCLUDE SELF PENNED NEW RAMONES-LIKE SONGS INTO THE Z-LIST. UP UNTIL 2006 HAM RAM PLAYED SEVERAL CONCERTS IN GERMANY AND EUROPE AND THEY RELEASED A MUCH ACCLAIMED DEBUT ALBUM CALLED "FREE PHIL SPECTOR" IN FALL 2005.












Me Tarzan, You Jane

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

Born of the unholy alliance of tone deafness and alcohol abuse - Davies' brothers style onstage meltdowns, smashed guitars and an unhealthy obsession with thematic material you might find prevalent in a high school locker room. We were formed to play a birthday party for a one year old - and I'm shitting you negative, sally. Little did we know that we all shared the same interest - drinking. The rest is revisionist history.












Blood From A Stone

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON (USA)

The Boss Martians' style of '60s-influenced guitar pop was debuted in 1995 upon the release of their first self-titled full-length on Dionysus Records. Accompanied by an influence of Paul Revere & the Raiders, the Beach Boys, the Trashmen and the Astronauts, the Seattle natives also had the chance to scatter several singles throughout the years on various different labels before their second album, 13 Evil Tales, came out in 1996. But it wasn't until 1998 that the Boss Martians had the chance to branch outside of America with a tour of Europe that summer. After 2000's Move, they signed with MuSick Recordings, releasing 2002's Making the Rounds and 2004's The Set-Up. "I Am Your Radio," from the latter album, won the listener-driven "Coolest Song of the Year" contest on Little Steven's Underground Garage radio program, and their new record features a guest appearance by none other than IGGY POP himself!

Romilar D

PRATO, ITALY

Hard Garage Punk'n'Roll band formed in Vaiano (Prato – Tuscany – Italy), in spring 2004. After some changes in the line up, we found our real dimension in 2006: Cisvo on vox, Johnny on guitar and vocals, Simon also on guitar, Bilea on bass and J.B. on drums. Headbangers realized two home made EP's: Broken Shoes & Leather Jackets (2006) and On the Fast Lane! (2007). We made our appearence on the compilation Toscana Punk Rock Vol.2. From May 2009 third EP ‘Crack on!’ is out! At the moment, back in 4 with Johnny on voice, we’re working on some new songs and we’re trying to realise a new issue on vinyl. We are the right band for high energy punk'n'roll garage lovers!

Turn Me Out
Featuring Rudi Protrudi

DOMODOSSOLA, ITALY

The Preachers born in the late 2001 in order to spread the Word of the Garage Rock culture.They're still preaching across Italy the lesson of bands like Love, Sonics, Seeds, Music Machine, 13th Floor Elevators. But the Preachers also wrote many songs and very soon it'll be out a brand new album for Teen Sound records.The Fuzztones are a point of reference for The Preachers,as the love for horror and mysterious atmospheres . Preacher's show is very theatrical and hypnotic,so shake your bones with The Preachers!







Shame On You

KEOKUK, IOWA (USA)

Like many garage bands of the '60s, the Gonn achieved (slight) international fame beyond anything they attained in their lifetime when their single "Blackout of Gretely" was rediscovered by collectors and reissued in the '80s. From Keokuk, IA, the Gonn released only a couple singles on tiny local labels in 1966 and 1967. Probably the toughest garage band in Iowa (not that there was an enormous amount of competition), the Gonn took their inspiration from the raunchiest aspects of the early Rolling Stones, adding the raw, throat-shredding screams that American groups of the kind were wont to use during this period.









MTV- Interview with Rudi Protrudi 1990

MALIBU, CALIFORNIA

She got the MTV job even though her prior on-camera experience had been limited to a few television commercials. Rolling Stone magazine readers selected her as "MTV's Best-Ever VJ" years later. Quinn's petite, girl next door personality made her extremely popular among viewers. In 1993, she married musician Jordan Tarlow (ex-Fuzztones); they have two children and live in Malibu, California










IAN ASTBURY

Cheyenne Rider

L.A. CALIFORNIA (USA)

Ian Astbury is the frontman of The Cult, a successful British rock band in the late 1980s and early 1990s. With the 1983 release of their first album, Dreamtime, The Cult became the darling of the indie post-punk scene, their chart topping single "Spiritwalker" having held at number one for three months. Despite the Cult's even greater success through their mainstream hit single "Fire Woman" (from the followup 1989 album Sonic Temple), Astbury relocated to Los Angeles, California. He became friends with The Fuzztones, often jumping up onstage with them at live concerts. One such concert, at Scream in Los Angeles, was recorded and a cover of The Stooges song "Down on the Street" was released as a picture disc in the UK on Situation Two Records. It featured Astbury guesting on vocals and the In Heat-era Fuzztones providing backing. Spawn II features Ian's version of The Fuzztones' Cheyenne Rider, recorded at the same Scream show!




Cellar Dweller

AT The Fuzztone Bar

VALLADOLID, SPAIN

HARLA HORROR se formó en la fría capital castellano-leonesa, un lugar aburrido que, quién sabe si por ello, ha producido buenas bandas de rock'n'roll a lo largo de los tiempos. Sus gustos incluyen las películas de terror y de serie B, el punk rock, las bandas de garage de los 60, el hard rock de los 70, ver música en directo, y por supuesto adoran el sonido del viejo vinilo. Alguien definió su sonido una vez como "Los Ramones mezclados con Steppenwolf con unas gotas de Them en la mezcla". Desde su nacimiento, han tocado por toda España, pasando por festivales como el Freakland de Ponferrada o el Kozmik Kruntz de Vitoria, y han llevado su INCENDIARIO directo en sendas giras por los Países Bajos y Reino Unido, incluyendo la participación en el 2º Festival Glampunksa de Cambridge, (Uk), llegando a ser felicitados por Ron Splinter, guitarrista de los míticos Outsiders. Han compartido escenario con grandes bandas de la talla de Fuzztones, Cynics, The 45's, o Illegal Movers. Han sido incluidos en recopilatorios nacionales e internacionales, como el de la conocida revista de HotRods californiana "Mad Fabricators", o el famoso recopilatorio americano Illegitimate Spawn 2 - Fuzztones Tribute.

Get Naked

DORTMUND, GERMANY

In a time when the term “rock” has shriveled to become nothing more than a gleaming sign at ringtone-commercials, LYNX LYNX are travelling ancient prairies hand in hand with The Gories, MC5 and even with the unique Howlin Wolf ready to create a sound too aggressive and soulful to call it just another throw back 60's garage yawnfest. LYNX LYNX was founded to melt down those tympanic membranes whose owners declared “Blues is dead” by just one howl. It is this quest that made us unite the pack and leave our beloved cave to turn your stage into our riff-mined hunting-ground. May true believers survive the attack.









Rock On 18

BETHEL, PENNSYLVANIA (USA)

As much a gang as a band, these bunch of juvenile delinquents featured an ex-Pagans motorcycle gang member as singer/flautist. Every member had done jail time, Rudi's "stay" being the shortest (one night). Played the college circuit, as well as festivals. repertoire consisted mostly of Jethro Tull, Alice Cooper, Blue Oyster Cult and Bloodrock covers, with a few originals thrown in when they could get away with it. They recorded a single in 1972, "Rapa's Little Schoolgirl," b/w "Rock On 18" on the Baldwin Studios label. From left to right: Tony Uhrich-lead & rhythm guitar, vocals; Jim Lane-bass, vocals; Dan O'Hara-keyboards; Brad Farnsler-drums; Rapa-lead vocals, flute, sax; Rudi Protrudi-lead & rhythm guitar, vocals.









Just Once

MECHANICSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA (USA)

The Punk Rock Janitors were three guys who barely graduated special ed in school, and a gal rhythm guitarist who, in her early 20's, looked like a 13 year old hooker. How this motley crew ever learned to play instruments, let alone write songs is one of life's mysteries, but their tunes are melodic and energetic. Thankfully, Danny Trash's lead guitar work isn't hindered by any knowledge of musical theory, scales or the like. Hence, some of the most "out there" solos ever heard! Included here, their original, "Just Once," recorded in 1980 and produced by Rudi Protrudi, was later rearranged and recorded by The Fuzztones.










9 Meses Despues (Nine Months Later)

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO

CARROÑEROS came from the nothing. They never had a friend or a relative in the music industry, neither a millionaire relative, politic, or a sister or girlfriend that ever could strike in the playmate business. These guys came from the nothing. One day in September of 2006 appeared a drum kit in the room of Jesse J. Coyote, a bass in the toilet of Augustoock Vicios, the hand of Conde Giovanni Contar was suddenly hypnotized, Rod Monstruo and Paloma Stricnina felt sick and just they could speak screaming, and, finally, Emilio Revolver found and old organ in his garden when he pretended to buried his dog. Ok, they thought, we have an organ, we could make it as a church..s band. CARROÑEROS originally began playing at weddings, baptisms, and child..s birthdays. But they failed. Each party they played worst and worst. The people began to shout and bangs his heads and dance like if they were schizoids. Suddenly, to this baptisms, weddings, etc., began to arrive young delinquents, with sun glasses, big black boots and wild haircuts; CARROÑEROS played for avoid a disaster. But soon they began to love this type of “catholic partys” too. Actually, the worst of the worst people in Mexico City reunite themselves to dance like maniacs with the terrible sound of CARROÑEROS. And I heard that sometimes they invoke Satan.







Bad News Travels Fast

BERLIN, GERMANY

Moving party of the 8T's Mod-revival and founder of the paisley-faction within this scene. W/ strong bonds to Hamburg and D'dorf at these times. 1st gig ever after 2h practice in a garage was held at Berlin's NAAFI-Club (a club for the British military-forces in Berlin) in october 1985. We were then between 13-18 years old. It mainly consisted of a losely repeated combination of versions from Hang on Sloopy, Louie Louie and Farmer John, accompagnied by Batman-Theme, Hey Joe and Sex and Violence! Due to the cheap beer-price it happened to be tremendous success. So we kept on doing what we've learned from this, drinking and playing - until the sun comes out!









Heathen Set

PRATO, ITALY

Gruppo formatosi nel 2002 a seguito della reunion di tre componenti, (Stefano, Giovanni e Daniele) del gruppo Lysergic Summer Device, attivo in Toscana negli anni ottanta, orientato verso sonorità sixities - psichedeliche.
