Waxdolls - High Speed Killer Ride (2009)




What do we have here? Some heavy pumping electrobeats!!!!
You want your rock spiced with heavy beats, or can't wait till the new Goose album is released, well, here's a brand new Belgian duo from Ghent. You can expect brutal punky electrobeats with analogue synths and sexually explicit lyrics. For fans of Goose, Neon Judgement, Digitalism and Soulwax Nite Versions. Highly recommended.
And remember you 'spoiled rich bitches', support the artists, go to their shows, buy some stuff, purchase the album if you like it, anyway spend some €'s or $'s!!!

Thee Andrews Surfers - Rip-Off! (1999) Re-up



As a side-project, the three core members of Fifty Foot Combo recorded this album. It's their first and only release as Thee Andrews Surfers. They play now shows under the name of Thee Andrews Surfers Royale ( with 1 extra ex-50ft combo member). Expect instrumental garage-surf surf hits played in a more punkier way. The album isn't available anymore.








The New Strychnines - The New Original Sonic Sound (2003)



In June 2000 the Seattle Experience Music Project managed to put together a show which billed many now legendary '60s Northwest garage bands such as the Wailers and the Kingsmen. Still, they couldn't get what is probably the best of them all, THE SONICS, to reunite. So, Scott McCaughey (Minus 5/Young Fresh Fellows/REM) started to get an all-star Sonics fans´ band together, so that they could perform at the show and represent the original and almighty Sonics. Boooom!! Here are THE NEW STRYCHNINES! And who could dare to play the songs of the wildest and greatest garage-punk band that ever existed? The New Strychnines are 75% of Mudhoney (Mark Arm, Steve Turner, and Dan Peters), with Tom Price (from Gas Huffer and Monkeywrench), Big Kahuna (from Girl Trouble), Scott McCaughey (from The Young Fresh Fellows and The Minus 5), and Craig Florey. Here are 16 tracks, including all the Sonics classics!!

Mogul - Build Me A Hunchback (2008) Re-up




Cowboys & Aliens (RIP) and Hypnos 69 (RIP ?) were probably the best stonerrock acts Belgium ever had. Now we have Mogul, Belgium's best keep (stoner) secret of this moment. If you adore Unida, Hermano, Fu or love Demon Cleaner and Ridge, than you surely like Mogul's first full-album 'Build me a hunchback'.
Check them out: Myspace

"Unida, Hermano, Monster Magnet and Kyuss fans, please pay attention to the following! From Belgium hails this new sensational stoner rock band Mogul! Good old fashioned stoner rock with the cosmic approach to songs and melodies. I cannot discover one flaw on this record." (quote taken from allthatisheavy).
