Some new and recent reviews in Maximum Rocknroll

Mark Sultan

MARK SULTAN "Filthy Rat" EP by Mark Sultan

Filthy Rat / Heart Attack EP Two songs of SULTAN’s unique garage rock croon. Poppy, peppy and romantic(ish), this is modern doo-wop with a punk rock tinge. Catchy and fun.

Ladrones

LADRONES "Ladrones" LP by Ladrones

Ladrones LP There aren’t many female-led bands doing the unhinged TY SEGALL garage thing these days. So it’s really nice to have this debut album from LADRONES. Vocalist Valeria Sánchez has a wild style with frantic yelps and elongated howls. The band plays frenzied, distorted garage punk. It sounds great. The best song, “La Pichaera,” sounds like it could be an outtake from the debut DAVILA 666 album. It’s so catchy and driving and makes you want to sing along. Excellent album.

Xenu & the Thetans

XENU & THE THETANS "Xenu & the Thetans" LP by Xenu & the Thetans

Xenu and the Thetans LP Brandon Welchez from CROCODILES and Johnny Otis Davila aka Dr. Papi, from DAVILA 666, joined forces in Mexico City to form XENU AND THE THETANS. It’s as if they had been held back by their previous musical endeavors and decided to play as fast as possible. Luckily, they are able to pull it off without sounding unhinged or disjointed. The drummer is pretty great. Excellent cover of the SAINTS’ “This Perfect Day,” sung in Spanish.

GINO and the GOONS

GINO and the GOONS "Rip It Up" LP by Gino and the Goons

Rip It Up LP A reissue of the third and my personal favorite LP by these Florida garage punkers. This album is just so great: a non-stop rocking experience featuring amazing songs, performed perfectly, and delivered with the perfect amount of attitude. Any band, from any decade, undoubtedly wishes this was their album. “Outta Control” may be the best rock song of the 21st century. It’s so damn catchy. If you missed out on this the first time around, there is no longer any excuse not to own this. Fantastic.

Hand & Leg

HAND & LEG "Lust In Peace" LP by Hand & Leg

Lust In Peace LP Long-player #2 for this Greek duo. Within seconds, it’s clear that Lust In Peace avoids any lazy two-piece trappings, and that something a lot more ominous is afoot here. Rhythms generally thud, vocals chastise, and strings are mangled while an uneasy static grows and grows. There’s no comfort in the groove they build, but still so much to hear—experimental, fearful, and extreme as their sound may be. There is nothing “garage” about this either, just pure cacophonous, uneasy listening that prompts repeat plays. A very impressive record, and one that anyone prone to neg-vibe explorations should seek out.

Model Zero

MODEL ZERO "Model Zero" LP by Model Zero

Model Zero LP Members of the SHEIKS (one of Jack Oblivian’s backing bands) and EX-CULT backed by one of MR. QUINTRON’s drum buddies from this Memphis supergroup. With a pedigree this cool, it would be hard to go wrong. MODEL ZERO does not disappoint. Theirs is a retro futuristic style with whirly synths and repetitive beats. The vocals are soulfully plaintive. Plus it’s got a wacky edge. Buy this.

Black Gladiator and Slovenly the bomb squad we be, Set to unleash a depth charge of cold blooded circuitry.

The Don Mr. Quintron assembles Drum Buddies from the ground up, Mod Z gnaws the breaks and regurgitates, what the fuck is up Chuck?

Big up, Ghettoblaster Magazine!

"Model Zero's self-titled LP is coming out May 31 on Slovenly Recordings and Black Gladiator Records, and the Memphis band features members of Ex-Cult, Aquarian Blood, and Jack Oblivian’s backing band The Sheiks. The band fuses their brand of blown speakers garage rock with the post-punk charm of creepy guitar lines, drum machines and other electronics (including the Quintron-invented Drum Buddy).

Today, Ghettoblaster has the pleasure of premiering the band’s art-damaged, Cold War-reminiscent freakout “Missile Protector.”
