Listening to Lewis Capaldi while in a sad mood was a horrible idea cause now I'm crying...

Psycho 44 - Boom (Snoop Dogg Cover)

It's snoop dogg's birthday today (dude's turning 40, damn).

Anyway: Fridge favourite Psycho 44 covered the FUCK out of one of his tracks.

Yeah.. Blew me away to.

You can download it on soundcloud, and you should.

BONUS: As you may or may not know, Psycho 44 is working on their (its?) debut album. This little (but poorly recorded) gem  will probably be on it. I'm so psyched. (get it? with the... do you see what I did?)

Psycho 44 - Demon EP

I've mentioned these guys a couple of times now. And I shall mention them again. Psycho 44 is a belgian Rock band. Rock in like the AAAAAAAAAAAAARGH FUCK YEAH kind of rock. Not the pussy kind.

Belgian Bands have a tendency to calm down their sound to appeal to a broader audience after they've gotten some exposure. So I was half expecting them to tone it down a bit after they made the finals of Humo's Rock Rally (which is kind of a big deal here).

Turns out I was wrong. Psycho 44 said "Screw larger demographics", turned everything up to 11 and rocked the fuck out.

The EP was released at some, to my understanding, epic gig, which I would've gone to if only it wasn't located in the exact geographical middle of nowhere. But I saw them this Saturday and once about 6 months back. And I have to say: As good as they sound on the EP, it shits itself in fear of being wedgied at the mere sight (sound to be more exact, really)  of their stage-presence and live sound. They've been kicking ass to some degree since the beginning, but recording the EP their sound and overall band-ness has grown. I'd say they've matured but that sounds like something a real music critic would say so it has absolutely no place here.

Partly, this change and growth possibly came from the mentoring and production of their EP by some guy from Triggerfinger (I've forgotten which one) who are themselves specialists in all things ass-kicking and you should check them out some time. Now where was I?

Oh yeah. The EP is good, but as mentioned not as awesomely overwhelming as the gigs are. All my demons have distortion is a fucking anthem. It's video, by the way, is up somewhere and not only captures the spirit of Psycho 44 but is also hilarious as hell. (The guy that misses his cue at 1:25 kills me every time)

The rest of the songs is pretty much on par with that one, Guitar-riffs that never seem to stop bodyslamming 7 kinds of shit out of you. All my demons stands out because of its 'catchyness' (by lack of a better word). The rest of the songs have some clever stuff in them but don't have the same amount of screaming-along-at-the-top-of-your-lungs appeal. My Gommorah comes close though.

I would've loved for DANCE MTHRFCKR DANCE to be on there though.

So yeah, if you live in Belgium or somewhere near, see 'em live. Your eardrums might regret it, but you won't.

If you are in the vast majory of people that don't live here. Buy the EP on bandcamp, you won't regret that either.
