The Hidden Door Club

If you happen to find yourself in London - check out the Hidden Door Club (Based in Camden at the Elixir Bar). Loads of 60s underground/garage/psyche/beat goodness. First friday of the month - be there or be everso slightly cuboid!

Surf Me Up, Scotty - Surf Now, Apocalypse Later

Probably my fave album by Luxembourg's best garage surf band. Lots of cover versions (inc. a Pixie's number - Cecilia Ann) and some self-penned numbers (a re-working of an older track - Desperado On The Beach). All in all good stuff!

1. Surfing With Sharks
2. South Of The Border
3. Moonshine Runner
4. Cecilia Ann
5. Downhill Madness
6. The Victor
7. Horror On Party Beach
8. Backseat Ballad
9. Bombora
10. Desperado On The Beach
11. Shrunken Head Stomp
12. Extra OC Life





Apocalypse Now!

New Music

I was sent an album by a reader and am posting it for everyone. The Band/artists name is Swilson and the albums called 'Demonology' and I enjoyed it very much - it's got a bit of everything, some garagey bits, some whacked out psychedelic bits and some acoustic songs (even spotted a Hammond organ at one point). It's very lo-fi (which is a good thing!) and on the whole sounded like a love-child of Daniel Johnston and The Bevis Frond (again, a very good thing!). Swilson mentioned that he is saving his hard-earned to get the album pressed, so if you like the mp3s, then keep an eye out and get the vinyl.
