B-side (and 7” exclusive!) “Tu M’as Mise á Genoux” is a fast moving punker with leading fuzzbass. Two uptempo pounders written by Mark ten Hoor from THE KRYNG. These cats also recorded all the backingtracks for this 7”, the previous 7” “Tu Es Un Être Parfait” and the upcoming album.

MOVIE MOVIE – In 4-D! LP (TTR-026)

A:                                                          B:
Nous Con nuerons á Marcher Ensemble Tu M’as Mise á Genoux



MOVIE MOVIE takes the listener on a cinematic journey in their songs. They combine elements of power pop, ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s garage, classic, alternative, and glam rock, but they have a sound all their own, with a focus on strong hooks and melodic vocals.
MOVIE MOVIE was formed in NYC in early 2022 by Derek Davidson (formerly of THE ELECTRIC MESS), and includes former members of other popular NYC and internationally known bands, including Andrea Sicco (TWIN GUNS) and Frank Caira (THE ABOVE), with Alan J. Camlet (also from THE ELECTRIC MESS). They recorded their debut 6 track EP „Now Playing“ (Ghost Highway/KOTJ), over the summer of 2022, with the addition of Dave Amels (REIGNING SOUND) on keyboards.

They quickly followed it up with a full 10 track LP, „Storyboards“ (Topsy-Turvy), completing it in early 2023, and they toured Spain later that year to well-received shows and receptive audiences. Around that time they went back into the studio and recorded the 10 tracks that would become their second full LP, „In 4-D!“ (Topsy-Turvy), for release in late 2024. Again, they emphasize their cinematic flashback approach in the sequencing, with a wide range of styles along the way, beginning with ’60s garage, through pop psychedelia, glam, New Wave, post-punk, and even veering into stadium rock territory (in the best sense) by the end, all filled with ear worms and indelible vocal arrangements and harmonies

Welcome to the fascinating musical universe of EXOTIC ROOSTERS! It emerges as a burst of freshness and originality, blending an eclectic variety of musical influences to create a truly unique and exciting auditory experience. Comprised of experienced and virtuosic musicians on their respective instruments, the group captivates audiences of all ages with its energy and unmistakable style. Exploring the intersection between tradition and modernity, EXOTIC ROOSTERS combines the rich soundscapes of marimba, vibraphone, double bass, percussion, and drums to create an expansive and nuanced musical landscape. From frenetic rhythms that invite dancing to captivating melodies that transport the listener on an emotional journey, each performance aims to be a celebration of cultural diversity and artistic expression.

In the relentless musical era of the late 90s, two passionate souls, Eugeni Camacho and Rafa Navarro, embarked on a unique sonic odyssey by blending the melodious marimba with the pulsating drums. Together, they successfully created STAMINA PERCUSSIO in their concerts. However, life composed its own score, separating Rafa, who was abducted by the Canary Islands, and Eugeni, who was drawn to vibrant New York. Upon their return, after years of musical exploration in different projects with the Oscars (Oscar Cuchillo and Oscar Rocher), their hearts aligned with a new melody. In the loom of destiny, they discovered the emerging talent of Bernat Cucarella. A prodigy with drumsticks and a 4.0 brain. By uniting Rafa’s island experiences, Eugeni’s resonant jazz from the Brooklyn alleys, and the rich musical diversity harvested in life’s journeys by each of the members, they gave birth to a magical musical tale: EXOTIC ROOSTERS

From the irresistible rhythms of salsa and bossa nova to the sophisticated melodies of contemporary jazz their first 10” “Wachi Wara” features original compositions designed to capture the unique essence and creativity of the group.

EXOTIC ROOSTERS strive to be ambassadors of joy and positivity, using their music as a bridge that connects audiences from all around the world in a spirit of celebration and camaraderie.

Wray I Don’t Know

Imagine, you are invited to spend a day at the beach together with THE MUMMIES and BLACK LIPS? Sounds trippy and sick to you? Well, then you are right. Put on your best shorts and bring your salami recorder because SUX SUX SUX are going to blast you. These records spinning weirdos with budget rock attitude and love for shitty guitars do it right! Formally known as SALAMI SUX, they have been around for while and come from the gutters of Vienna and St Pölten. SUX3 = SUX SUX SUX… well, maths is complicated… but don’t worry, their garage-surf-punk sound isn’t!

The former band SALAMI SUX previously released two LPs called „Salami Sux“ and „Salami Sux’n’Roll Vol.1“ via TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS. Lone fighter “Salami Recorder” gives the songs a defined style with his incomparable singing and guitar playing. Bass man “Mots T. Sux” is happy to leave his usual punk structures, which he has celebrated for years in bands like SKEPTIC ELEPTIC, DEMENZIA KOLEKTIVA and THE ZSA ZSA GABOR‘S while drummer boy “Thoms’n’Roll” who was also active in the bands SKEPTIC ELEPTIC, DEMENZIA KOLEKTIVA and ANSTALT and the newest addition to the band, “Georg Danzig” on keyboard and guitar round up the band’s raw, infectious and trashy-cool garage-surf-punk-sound. 

 

THE SHUTDOWN 66 – I Wish I Could Be Shutdown 66 (Again) LP

Saboteur Can’t Be Trusted 
She Doesn’t Love Me Left With Stax 
Don’t Step On My World No Woman
You’re History She Don’t Want Me Around 
Addictio Accion Droppin’ Out Of School

At first there were only whispers, then the whispers became rumours, and finally the rumours became the stuff of myths, legends, and dreams. Could there really be a whole unreleased album, recorded by the original line up of Australia’s garage punk gods SHUTDOWN 66?

Somemes dreams really do come true:
Melbourne’s legendary neo-garagepunkers SHUTDOWN 66 are back for more! Featuring members of THE BREADMAKERS, HEKAWIS, THE PURITANS and DRIVEWAY SERVICE these boys have created their own unique and mindblowing sound, strongly influenced by 60’s garagepunk and British R&B, that has a worldwide fanbase. Between 1998 and 2004 they released four smashing albums and several singles and split-singles.

Now the lost master tapes have been unearthed and SOUNDFLAT RECORDS can now bring you the sound of a band performing at the absolute peak of their powers. On this album SHUTDOWN 66 reached their zenith. They tackled all manner of styles in these 12 original composi ons. There are screaming garage stompers, wild R’n’B ravers, fuzzed out rockers, and even a couple of the tragic teen twangers (from which the band took their name).

SHUTDOWN 66 wear their influences loudly and proudly on their snotty sleeves. Think of The Pretty Things, The Shadows of Knight, The Belfast Gypsies and The Missing Links. They even write songs about their friends in bands including Mike Stax of Ugly Things fanzine and Telltale Hearts fame, and Freddy from Fortune and Maltese.

Thank the vinyl gods that these great sounds were not left to gather dust. They have been saved and lovingly restored by master audiologist Mikey Young (Eddie Current Suppression Ring) and now, almost unbelievably it really can be Shutdown66 again!

Hypnotized Who Is Who

UK Garage/Beat exponents THE BARON FOUR are back with their 3rd long play record! Formed in 2012, the band have honed their unique approach to making music over the past 11 years. While mainly aiming for an approximate midway joint between THE BEATLES in Hamburg and BACK FROM THE GRAVE, their new LP entitled „Outlying“ (, which comes in a 60’s style coverartwork with flap outer sleeve and UV varnish) has seen them progress into their own unique sound whilst still managing to stay true to their roots.

THE BARON FOUR include talented members of THE EMBROOKS, THE JACK CADES, THE CAPELLAS, PAPER LIPS and GALILEO 7. “Outlying” has a fabulous 60’s Freakbeat sound to it that makes it a modern classic already. The album features some elaborate songwriting with catchy melodies, beautiful harmonies and a classic garage-beat influence that reminds one of bands like THE REMAINS or THE ROGUES.

 

MOOON – Hurtin‘ My Heart (SFR-45-064)

A:                                         B:

Entering the world of MOOON is like entering a time machine. The young Brabant power trio, consisting of brothers Tom and Gijs de Jong and their cousin Timo van Lierop, takes the listener to the Golden Age of pop music: the heyday of psychedelia in the 60s and 70s.

Following up their recently released LP “III”, here comes a brand-new 7″ by MOOON. Featuring a mono-version of „Hurtin‘ My Heart“, taken from their latest album „III“ and on the B-side an unreleased song from the same session; „How I Learned (To Say Goodbye)“.

„Hurtin‘ My Heart“ is a fuzz & Farfisa driven tune, that everybody on the dancefloor will dig. „How I Learned (To Say Goodbye)“ is a jangly 3 part harmony pop song but with a high energy twist!

This is a 7″ that both sounds and looks 60’s-stylish (with flap outer sleeve) and every DJ will need in their box!

 

LES KITSCHENETTE’S – Algorythm’n’Blues (SFR-45-063)

A:                                   B:
Le Poison Rodéo
Plus Personne Breuvage Del Amor





LES KITSCHENETTES are French 60’s Garagebeat and Yéyé par excellence. For their 5th release titled “Algorythm’n’blues” they decided to include two songs of their own, “Le Poison” and “Rodéo” alongside two fabulous coversongs.

“Le Poison” sounds like a rythm’n’blues-tune in the tradition of the legendary NINO FERRER. Ludo, the male singer, sings about food and bellyache. Following up is a great version of TRAFFIC’s “Paper sun”, performed in French (- and renamed “Plus Personne” -) by the wonderful Lucille and her five monsieurs.

The B-side of this brand-new 7” “Rodéo” is a swinging surfin’ instrumental – perfect to introduce a gig, a radio show, or a DJ-set! Finally, Lucille provides us with a catchy version of THE SEARCHERS’ “Love potion n°9” with some Mexican-Spanish inspiration: “Breuvage del amor”, a cool girl-garage tune which is fantastic to dance to!

Brilliant new 45 by your favourite French 60’s-garage-yéyé-group LES KITSCHENETTES!

Saturated Sunday My Mind Goes Round in Circles

Hip Pocket The Fever
Stone Cold Fox Night of the Creeps
Spector Change
Crown Prince of Insanity

Ultrasonic mod soul pop explosion THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS release their second album, “Deux”, on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS! Since their well-received debut, THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS have been serving up stellar live performances with garage legends such as LOVE and THE CHOCOLATE WATCHBAND, while evolving their songwriting and sound. Retaining the pop sensibilities of their first LP, “Introducing the Fantastic Fellinis”, this follow-up studio album explores a decidedly more raw, in-the-face space. Rendering the swirling psychedelia of
“Saturated Sunday”, pure power pop of “Somewhere in My Dreams”, and sleazy ‘70s grind of “Stone Cold Fox”, this new set of tunes also include odes to musical heroes RONNIE SPECTOR and SYD BARRET.

Vitta Quinn’s sultry peppered vocal stylings profoundly pair with Kenneth Wessel’s fuzzed out guitars and the funky backbeats of Rene Montes. Frosted with a special appearance by Marco Scarsone for additional organs, this record sizably sizzles. THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS adeptness in bending genres and generations creates their unique sound, one with past familiarity but present and futuristic originality! As the LA Weekly writes: “Fantastic Fellinis…blends garage rock with ‘60s go-go, and that’s an intoxicating combination.”

THE WYLDE TRYFLES – Outta Tyme LP (SFR-144)

A:                                                 B:
I Can’t Get Enough Of Your Love One And One Make Two
Gonna Be A Change I Don’t Need Your Lovin’
Out Of Tyme Why
Don’t Leave Me This Way Don’t Press Your Luck
Can It Be Monsters


The WYLDE TRYFLES from Bordeaux sound wild and out of control, playing their modern take on ultra-fuzzed female-fronted 60s garage-punk, full of snotty garage vocals, screams, back from the grave vibes and hypnotic dangerous dancing beat!

So, what do they serve on their third Soundflat Records-release “Outta Tyme”? It’s a brand-new killer 60’s-garage-mayhem-punk-LP with 10 astounding tunes in the tradition of US-garage and British R&B/Freakbeat with an amazing vintage studio sound.

You can expect the obvious classic fuzzy 60’s garage-punk influence by the likes of LITTLE PHIL AND THE NIGHT SHADOWS, THE FIVE CANADIAN, THE OMENS, THE MUSIC MACHINE and THE YARDBIRDS; at the same time a great portion of 80’s garage-revival-legends inspiration like THE PANDORAS or THE CYNICS, and of course the WYLDE TRYFLES’ unique approach to their signature sound.

You get nine smashing melodic TRYFLES-originals like the breathtaking “Don’t Leave Me This Way” or the catchy “Don’t Press Your Luck”, plus one wylde coverversion of THE SAVOY’s “Can It Be”, which seems to be tailormade for the band and will keep you dancing all night long. This LP is definitely among the top 60’s garage revival  records.

MOOON – III LP (SFR-143)

A:                                       B:
Rainbow Flowers I Will Get To You
Richard Has A Racecar Living In The Night
Mr. Abelicity Buy Me A Smile
How You Really Are If Only I Knew
You Cannot Know G.A.S.
Hurtin’ My Heart Toy Gun

Entering the world of MOOON is like entering a time machine. The young Brabant power trio, consisting of brothers Tom and Gijs de Jong and their cousin Timo van Lierop, takes the listener to the Golden Age of pop music: the heyday of psychedelia in the 60s and 70s.

On their third album ‚III‘ the band digs a little deeper into their bag of tricks with trippy sounds. Catchy garage rockers are still represented, but also accompanied by more complex songs. On ‚You Cannot Know‘ we hear an extended, jazzy drum solo, ending in an almost baroque outro segment. It is one of the many examples of MOOON’s musical development as a band that we hear on “III”. They still look to the rich past for inspiration, but the trio dives deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole and experiments happily, resulting in a colorful mix of styles and ideas, without sacrificing authenticity and idiosyncrasy for a moment.

For their third full length studio album ”III” (that comes with a printed innersleeve), Dutch time travellers MOOON decided to record it all by themselves. With 12 fresh new songs they spared no effort and spent countless hours making this album sound the way it does. Utilizing Clavioline, cello and reverse tape effects next to their usual arsenal of guitars, drums, bass and the occasional keys, they took their sound to another level. Delivering a diverse collection of songs, which include rockers like “Richard Has A Racecar” and “I Will Get To You” but also trips out with “Living In The Night” and “You Can Not Know”, MOOON has crafted a record that fans of psychedelic music and rock’n’roll alike will love.

Surf Rat Motion
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Cocktail Party
Roller Girl Surf Rat Cha-Cha
Contwistador Contwistador In Tijuana



With one of the band members living in Canada and the rest in Spain, the Imperial Surfers have not had many chances to play live in recent years. That’s why their annual reunions in Madrid are eagerly awaited by their legion of fans.

During the last one in October 2022, they took the opportunity to get together into their Pandoras Vox cave, under the direction of maestro Frank Wella, and they recorded five new songs, both originals and covers, with a 60’s Northwest wild sound; you know, sax, organ, guitar, bass and drums! All of them with their usual attitude, raw, festive and danceable. But, not only that, they also thought it would be a great idea to add a “cocktail-party touch” to some of these songs and maestro Wella called some of his musical friends, the Hunkie Dories, to add a more orchestral instrumentation to some of these themes.

Now you can listen to the incredible result from a new 10” vinyl record released by your favorite label, Soundflat Records, and we are sure you will love it if you like the great instrumental rock and roll, twist, frat and surf music from the early 60s. Music to have fun, dance or drink a cocktail to; very splashy and upbeat, with lots of warmth and wild tunes. Thoroughly cool!!

 

THE SATELLITERS – A Collection Of (Nearly) Lost Recordings LP (SFR-142)

A:                                       B:
So Many Times Easy When I’m Dead
What You Gonna See Soul For A While 
Don’t Say No People Think 
Nothing Left To Tell And Sometimes
Last Day On Earth Evening Sun 
Out Of The Dark You


After their 2018-release „ZAHSTETHOMALEX“ on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS THE SATELLITERS
had planned to release a follow-up with then unreleased songs recorded at sessions over the
last years which never made it on their full-length releases. In fact, some of the recordings
were nearly lost in the recording vaults, because even the boys didn’t remember these
tracks. So, tapes were rolled back and forth and 12 tracks were mixed and put together to be
the next SATELLITERS release…then came covid and due to other strange things that
happened it wasn’t possible until now to release this platter more than 4 years after it was
meant to be released!

Now, what do we have to expect: well, it’s THE SATELLITERS: fuzzy GUITAR, throbbing BASS,
driving DRUMS, cheesy ORGAN and howling VOCALS – no more, no less!

This time THE SATELLITERS combined 3 cover-versions (“Don’t Say No” – originally by
Ruthann Friedmann, “Easy When I’m Dead” – originally by The Charlatans and “Last Day On
Earth”– Velvet Haze) with beaty, bouncy, jangly and fuzzy 60-punk-inspired originals,
including their SOUNDFLAT-release and hit-single “Nothing Left To Tell” and its B-side “You”.
Get the picture?

Grab this new one to prepare yourself for more platters by THE SATELLITERS to come in
2024…31 years after they had started and right before their path through the forest for the
next decade or so!

 

THE SMOGGERS – My Last Rock’n’Roll LP (SFR-141)

A:                                                B:
Don’t Try To Help Me Anymore Time To Dream 
Looking For A Lie It’s Too Late 
You Got It Let Me Down 
My Last Rock’n’Roll I Hate Your Smile 
Travel With Mary Do You Smog On My Grave 






THE SMOGGERS have been bringing their trademark version of garage rock to a fanatic
audience for 16 years now. After twenty releases they follow up with a brand-new LP named
„My Last Rock’n’Roll“.

It is a solid reminder of what makes THE SMOGGERS special; wild fuzzy guitars, a haunting
hammond organ, stomping drums, screaming vocals and a lot of primitive garagepunk’n’roll! This album surely continues to whet appetites for more from their musical universe.

There is a definite proto-punk, hard-rock, and psychedelic edge to their songwriting. At the
same time the album is very versatile, as the band keeps varying their approach while adding
some musical references to classic rock’n’roll bands like THE DOORS, STOOGES or FLAMIN’
GROOVIES to their savage sound attack.

If it is sinister organ-driven tunes like “Do You Smog On My Grave” and “Looking For A Lie”,
or catchy danceable garage-rock-tunes like the title-song “My Last Rock’n’Roll” and “I Hate
Your Smile” – this album is telling a wild garage-punk-tale from the grave that needs to be
heard!

There are fantastic tunes like “Hey Leonard”, fuzz garage in French, “Microsillons” in the language of Dutronc, a “tremolo-reverbo-psycho” title, their own “Elucubrations Solutioniques” and a piece in praise of the brilliant Salvador Dali…Their traditional foray into the language of Brian Wilson is a Christmas surf song “Surfin‘ Santa” and finally two covers. “Louise” is their adaptation of Richard Berry’s ultimate riff in a feminized French version. And a title by Antoine, “Un Elephant Me Regarde”, passed through the Solutions mill.

MONSIEUR PAUL ET LES SOLUTIONS serve a modern version of psychedelic 60’s-garage one just has to fall in love with!

 

THE 50/50’s – Holiday 7″ (TTR-45-006)

A:                                                B:
Holiday Vacation






THE 50/50’s formed in 2015 in Osaka, Japan. A rock and roll two-piece blending the essence of garage punk with a blues foundation and thereby creating a unique and powerful music explosion.

Since the duo started, they have performed their wild live-shows at the FUJI ROCK FESTIVAL ROOKIE A GO-GO, collaborated with GUITAR WOLF and KING BROTHERS, and travelled to Australia twice. In 2022, the first drummer left the band, but the band resumed with a new drummer, Naruha, in the same year.

The uptempo garagepunk/blues-A-side “Holiday” will make you sing and dance along to immediately, while the B-side Is a powerful and extremely catchy blues-punkrock-tune that is just out of this world! This young and energetic duo is nothing like your regular lo-fi garagepunk-duo; they rather bring their very own raving sound and style to the world of music. Just listen and see for yourselves!

 

THE SINO HEARTS – Phantome Rhapsody LP (TTR-024)

A:                                                  B:
Tokyo Endless To Me
Alerta Alerta Absolute Horror
Right Out Teenage Lockdown
Phantom Rhapsody Astoria Garage
Topsy Turvy Ever Really Want This
Road To Sanremo Honey

‚Phantom Rhapsody‘ marks a thrilling chapter in the journey of SINO HEARTS, as they unleash their 4th full-length album, featuring 12 electrifying power-pop garage punk anthems. This record not only continues the band’s sonic evolution from their previous album ‚Lightening the Darkness‘ but does so with an even more uncompromising and direct approach.

Recorded amidst the challenges of the spring of 2022 at 73 Studio, China’s exclusive analog recording haven, ‚Phantom Rhapsody‘ reflects a period of unprecedented adversity in modern Chinese history. The studio sessions were frequently disrupted by the relentless demands of a 24-hour COVID testing regimen, sudden border closures, and mandatory home quarantines. These trying circumstances shaped the album into more than just a musical endeavor; it’s a testament to the band’s resilience, a sonic diary of their struggle against adversity, and a high-energy musical drama that transcends entertainment.

Produced by Bruno Barcella (who has previously worked with bands like Nikki Corvette, The Manges, Peawees…), the album’s journey kicks off with ‚Tokyo,‘ an homage to their previous Japanese tour, influenced by the  legendary Japanese band TEENGENERATE. ‚Alerta Alerta,‘ an ode to 70s German Krautrock, calls for a new world order in the aftermath of the pandemic years. The first single, ‚Right Out,‘ co-written with American guitarist Ned Moffit, delivers an absolute power-pop punch reminiscent of the 1979 PEZBAND-led power-pop wave. The title track, ‚Phantom Rhapsody,‘ transports listeners back to the electrifying vibe of the 80s RAMONES era, while ‚Endless to Me‘ draws inspiration from THE CURE and THE SMITHS, creating a nostalgically jangly rock sensation. ‚Absolut Horror‘ emerges as a proto-punk gem that’s sure to become a fan favorite. ‚Astoria Garage‘ stands as a modern Chinese poetic response to the golden era of 60s folk psychedelia. The album culminates with ‚Ever Really Want This‘ and ‚Honey,‘ two soul-stirring ballads infused with classic pop-punk catchiness.

‚Phantom Rhapsody‘ is undeniably Sino Hearts‘ magnum opus to date, a powerhouse of sound that invites you to embark on a musical journey like no other. Prepare to be swept away by the sonic force of this remarkable album, which sounds, but also looks fantastic with a printed inner sleeve.

 

FRANKIE – Panick Attack 7″ (SFR-45-061)

A:                                               B:
Panick Attack Time
Agnos





This new FRANKIE-45 is more raw, primitive, philosophical, fuzzy and dissonant than you’d expect! The theme of this 45 (and most of the upcoming album) is fear… Perfect for Halloween. However, this record is a not a record about spooky skeletons and ghouls but rather a record about deep and day-to-day fears.

The first song “Panic Attack” depicts the inner emotions and experience of a panic attack. The next track “Agnost” is more philosophical, wandering into the most abstract of thoughts. In this land of ambiguity you easily spook yourself and try to seek comfort in the thought that existential questions about infinity and reality are just too big for a tiny human brain and that’s what that song is all about. The last track is “Time”, the devourer of everything is both relative and an unstoppable force that will turn everything to nothing. Filled with
paradoxes that’ll bend reality itself. This song is about the fear of being late, but humorously instead of blaming oneself, the blame is put on the boss for expecting to control such an uncontrollable power of the universe.

So, after FRANKIE’s first release, which was more folky and upbeat, this 45 is primitive, fuzzy and straight from the raw emotion that is fear! If you like: The MUSIC MACHINE, BOHEMIAN VENDETTA, THE SEEDS, SYD BARRETT and are into TRITONES… this is the 45 for you!

 

THE ROUTES – Reverberation Adict LP (SFR-139)

A:                                                                               B:
Ever Fallen In Love (With Someone You Shouldn’t’ve) Whatever Happened To?
Noise Annoys Everybody’s Happy Nowadays
Orgasm Addict Fast Cars
Just Lust What Do I Get?
Love You More Lipstick
Something’s Gone Wrong Again Oh Shit!
You Say You Don’t Love Me Fiction Romance
Promises

THE ROUTES are back with their fourteenth studio album “Reverberation Addict”. Having tackled the music of KRAFTWERK on their 2022 album “The Twang Machine”, THE ROUTES have applied their sound (described by IGGY POP as “beat-you-to-death surf music” on his BBC Radio 6 show) to the genius of PETE SHELLEY and BUZZCOCKS.

“Reverberation Addict” sees fifteen BUZZCOCKS-songs reimagined and rearranged as 60s surf guitar instrumental bangers (à la THE VENTURES, DICK DALE, TERAUCHI TAKESHI, LINK WRAY, THE SURFARIS and THE ASTRONAUTS and more). Prepare to be taken on a wild musical trip where “Orgasm Addict” and “Fast Cars” are transformed into the background music of a 60s drag race movie, “Just Lust” is presented all “Hey Bo Diddley!”, and “What Do I Get” gets the ENNIO MORRICONE inspired spaghetti western treatment… You don’t have to be a fan of BUZZCOCKS to enjoy these tunes, and likewise if you’re a BUZZCOCKS-fan you don’t need to be a fan of surf music to enjoy them.

Finally, as most punks out there will instantly notice, the record cover is a reworking of that of the BUZZCOCKS single “Orgasm Addict”. And what better endorsement or seal of approval is there than having UK graphic design icon Malcolm Garrett MBE RDI himself onboard for the design? Yes, it’s the real deal! Whether you see it as musical blasphemy or musical alchemy, THE ROUTES have provided the world with another potential future cult classic, destined to irk or jerk future generations for years to come.

The three musicians have all played in lots of bands before the SUTTLES, such as OPERATION S, PERIPHERIQUE EST, PROTOKIDS, LES ARONDES, JON AND THE VONS, LES BRAQUEURS and share a very cool and French punk’n’roll-sound.

The music is a mix of early Punk Rock and late 70’s Power Pop: think about THE NERVES, THE UNDERTONES, THE JAM, JOE JACKSON. Everybody sings, in English, French and Spanish. The band shares a huge amount of energy, coming directly from Punk rock and mixed with a very catchy sense of pop melody.

Following up are “That Summer Feeling” and “I’m So Sorry” with a dreamy, melancholic touch and the right dose of Japanese pop with beautiful vocal harmonies and psychedelic wah-wah’effect. The LP finishes off with the catchy garage-pop-punk-tune “It’s All Over Now” and finally a downright fantastic version of The Easybeats’ “Sorry”.

They cleanly combine elements of power pop („Born to Win“), ’70s and ’80s classic and alternative rock („Only Time Will Tell,“ „The Light That Shines in Her Eyes,“ „Time to Say Goodnight“), with moments of ’60s garage („The Girl With the Wandering Eye), psychedelia („Lone Warrior), and pop country („The Two Loneliest People in the World“), topped with bright, BYRDS-like harmonies and DAVID BOWIE-like vocals, lush soundscapes of layered guitars, organ, jangly piano, and strings. „Storyboards“ will have you returning to it again and again, like a good movie.

 

MOPHING PEOPLE – mppp LP/CD (TTR-020/TTR-CD-002)

A:                                        B:
She Love Is A Lie
We Can Make It Right ハロ-グッバイ
I Don’t Care Never Ending Song
Anytime Fades Away
Be Myself It’s All Right


MOPHING PEOPLE is a Japanese alternative rock band formed in 2021 by Makoto Miyoshi and Litsuko (ex-SHONEN KNIFE). Their first release, a digital EP, reached number one in the alternative charts of iTunes. The duo also released a cassette tape via Gerpfast Records in Indonesia and a song on the “Japan Is Loud” compilation.
Presented here by TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS is “mppp” (LP and CD), the first full album of their musical pieces containing all these fabulous tunes.

“She”, a great melodious guitar pop song is the first track of this album and followed by “We can make it right” that sounds somewhat like the early days SMASHING PUMPKINS with heavy big muff on 16 beats. “I Don’t Care” is the most alternative sounding tune of the album with complex noises intertwined and was included in the Adult Swim compilation “Japan is Loud” of the American Cartoon Network. “Anytime” is a melancholic song that sounds a lot like UK guitar rock. The A-side finishes with “Be Myself”, which contains the melodious essence of power pop as well as the characteristic sense of the 90’s grunge & alternative rock such as MUDHONEY.

The B-side starts off with the powerful and addictive “Love Is A Lie”, a rocking energetic grunge sound-song with cynical lyrics. “ハローグッバイ“ with a title inspired by THE BEATLES’”Hello, Goodbye” and a fantastic guitar-pop-sound is the album’s only song with Japanese lyrics. “Never Ending Song” is a melodic pop/rock-tune that conveys a warm and comfortable feeling. “Fades Away” was the very first song created by MOPHING PEOPLE and demonstrates the basic musical line of this unit, Litsuko’s vocals that somehow fit perfectly in the noisy and roaring guitar sound of Makoto Miyoshi. A very melodic 4-chord-tune, alternative pop at its best with a flavor of Dinosaur Jr. and Weezer. “It’s All Right”, the finale uses SONIC YOUTH-like mysterious guitar chords and RADIOHEAD-like variety.

MOPHING PEOPLE create today’s version of an explosive roaring noisy guitar sound containing plenty of the essence of the 90’s and 00’s sounds.

THE LET’S GO’S have been the spearhead of Japanese girl’s punk/rock’n’roll bands and have completed their latest album, which contains all of their dynamic energy. The band boasts a 16-year career, but the current members have proven to be the strongest lineup yet. Their recent 7″ EP released last year was almost sold out as soon as it was released, so this release is sure to be a delight for their fans.

This is their first full-length album in three years after their fantastic LP “Heibon Cherry” on Soundflat Records, and it is called „KILL BY POP”. Take that! LET’S GO’S Pop Bomb!

The album is infused with the essence and emotions of the three colorful and brilliant members, ranging from punk, power pop, and R&B to the cutting edge of the past and the present. The three members have injected their essence and emotions into a parade of colorful and sparkling pop numbers. In addition to the new songs, „Frontier“, a LET’S GO’S-classic, plus „In My Head“ and „Ring Ring Ring“, two songs from their latest 7-inch EP can be found on the record. The album also includes a cover of SHONEN KNIFE’s classic „Girl’s Rock,“ which interpreted respectfully in their unique, lighthearted way.

This is a masterpiece that will strike a chord with music fans of all ages, all gender, regardless of genre, and colorfully enhance their moods and daily lives.

The three-piece band SIX is based on the music and fashion of the 60’s, but continues to perform in a genre-independent manner. In early 2000, the band formed in Tokyo, led by vocalist Chelio. In 2004, they released their first 7-inch single, and since then they have released three albums while energetically performing live mainly in Tokyo. In addition to the simple and wild sound that only a three-piece can produce, SIX has original songs that are somewhat pop.

With this album „Tokyo Bogaloo“ their grainy masterpieces are being reissued on vinyl! „Whiskey Rock“ is their ignition to start up a live show, and „Breakaway“ (Jackie DeShannon) is a cover song with a Japanese sense. Koha La Smart’s (Smart Soul Connection) raging harp bursts into „Dance With Bacchus Tonight“ and „Tokyo Boogaloo“ the title number, is a small ballad with a hint of Showa-era balladry. „Anemone Flower“ starts with a punk approach, and „Witch Baby“ is a surf instrumental; this album is a compilation of fantastic tunes from
beginning to end! The trio selected the songs with the set list of their usual live performances in mind, so that you can almost feel like you are listening to a live performance. Please enjoy it at a loud volume!

Imagine Switzerland … go ahead, just close your eyes and let your imagination run wild. So what do you see? Probably some snowy capped Alps, rich delicious cheeses, the finest chocolate and charming farm houses rolling across the countryside. Well… you can open your eyes now. In fact, you can start crying your eyes out now Because your Swiss fantasy just turned into a psychedelic nightmare that even Albert Hoffman couldn’t have imagined. Welcome to the real deep darkside of the Alpine culture. Welcome to THE REVOX. Stuck in a
vortex, these guys probably haven’t heard a radio since they were toddlers. And somehow they’ve managed to collect a massive collection of musical instruments made before they were even born. Ignoring all the modern dresscodes and society’s DO’s and DO NOTs, this trio continue to ‘stick it to the man’ with their inability to try to fit in the modern society while waving their middle fingers in the air like they just don’t care. Rebels with a cause; and that cause is to eat your face with their pounding beats, throbbing pulses and grinding guitars and wild screams.

After their wild debut album “In Mono“ the trio now serves their second LP “You Treat Me So Bad“ – unstoppable garage punk madness from beginning to end. The boys included two raving coverversions of garagepunk-gems “Can’t Tame Me“ (THE BENDERS) and “Baby What You Want Me To Do“ (JIMMY REED) alongside all raw, untamed originals.

THE ROUTES – Lead Lined Clouds LP (SFR-130)

A:                                        B:
Drained Attention
Lead Lined Clouds Opinions
No Good Inside Out
Seen Better Days Shrunken Heads
Only Have Yourself To Blame Only Us And Them


THE ROUTES are back with “Lead Lined Clouds”, their 13th studio album, and their first vocal offering since 2021’s “Mesmerised”.
Picking up where “Mesmerised” left off (with 4 instrumental albums being released between “Mesmerised” and “Lead Lined Clouds”), “Lead Lined Clouds” consists of ten original songs, tackling subjects such as austerity. old age, corruption, propaganda, social media and mental health.
Whereas “Mesmerised” saw THE ROUTES very much in reverb-soaked psych territory, “Lead Lined Clouds” is a much more full-on sonic barrage. This album sees THE ROUTES tone down (but not turn down) the guitars to make room for the addition of organ, which is prominent throughout the album.
As opposed to just sounding like your typical garage rock or garage punk band, the sound is diverted not only by the dissonant organ, but also the snarly unapologetically “British” vocals (which for this album are mostly spoken or shouted, as opposed to sung).
Listening to “Lead Lined Clouds”, it would be easy to make comparisons to the music of bands like THE SEEDS, THE STANDELLS, and COUNT V (amongst endless other 60s bands); but listening from afar, the influences are much more eclectic. The tracks “Lead Lined Clouds”, “Inside Out” and “Shrunken Heads” sound like they could have been penned for an early STRANGLERS, THE FALL or MODERN LOVERS. “Seen Better Days” sounds like Syd Barrett singing with “Alien Lanes” era GUIDED BY VOICES. “No Good” nods to UK indie such as MY BLOODY VALENTINE, SPECTRUM and JESUS AND MARY CHAIN.

Refusing to be just another garage band, and refusing to be predictable; THE ROUTES have purposely changed their style for every album, and still managed to un-mistakenly sound like THE ROUTES.
“Lead Lined Clouds” is no exception. This is not another straight 60’s revival album. This is not garage-by-numbers. This is music for now that nods to music of the past.

 

THE EVIL FUZZHEAD – Evil Savage Voodoo LP (SFR-129)

A:                                              B:
Can’t Shake Her Out Of My Head Here Comes The Future
Each Night The Damage
Sell Out My Soul Something About You 
Velvet Canyon Can The Martians Read Our Minds?
Baby I Don’t Care Lost In The World
Together We Are Love Girls On The Phone

Following their smashing debut ”The Fuzz-O-Phonic Sound Of” ”Evil Savage Voodoo” is the sophomore album by the EVIL FUZZHEADS.

The band is led by singer and guitarist Eric St John (THE VICE BARONS, THE MIGHTY GORDINIS, THE RATBOYS, to name a few) while his daughter Iris St John is playing the bass. This time around, Magic Nico (MIGHTY GORDINIS, THE MOON INVADERS, THE CAROLOREGIANS and too many other bands to mention) has joined behind the drum kit and on hammond organ. The result is stellar: the sound is crisp and hammond and fuzz are battling on every track. The tempo is steady and the groove is tight. From the very first song onwards you’ll definitely struggle to shake these tunes out of your head. You can instead enjoy a rockin‘ combination of 60’s garage, fuzz, hammond, reverb and melodic beat. Perfect for any 60’s-garage-dance-party with uptempo, groovy classic garage-rock-tunes like ”Each Night”, ”Sell Out My Soul”, ”Baby I Don’t Care” or ”Here Comes The Future”, yet with a sinister and dreamy hint of psychedelia coming up for air here and there in ”Together We Are Love” for instance. The songs are fierce yet catchy as hell and are soon to be classics of 60’s influenced garage.

 

FLEUR – Bouquet Champêtre LP/CD (SFR-128 / SFR-CD-54)

A:                                 B:
Je Touche Du Bois L’Oiseau
Besoin De Personne Le Monde desMerveilles
Au Large La Chimère
Chanson d’Automne La Capharnaüm
L’Adieu L’Espoir Incertain


Following her great double sider “Le Capharnaüm” on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS your favourite YéYé-girl from the Netherlands, FLEUR is back again, now with her second LP “Bouquet Champêtre” (available in coloured or black vinyl or as CD)! After her brilliant debut album, three 7”s on BICKERTON RECORDS and her latest on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS, we simply cannot get enough of FLEUR’s fabulous YéYé-Beat with a dreamy nod to French chansons from the 60’s. Think a fresh and absolutely charming mix of FRANCE GALL, FRANCOISE HARDY and SYLVIE VARTAN.

“Bouquet Champêtre” means ‘field bouquet’: a nonchalant bunch with flowers in different colors, shapes and lengths. It’s not tight and monochromatic, but wild, uneven and composed of all kinds of flowers. Each flower is beautiful; but combine them in the right way and you get an overwhelming whole. The same goes for this
album. You can enjoy each song for its own sound and feel; but listen to the album as a whole and you will find yourself floating on top of Fleur’s warm breathy voice in a musical Bouquet Champêtre filled with rich colors, sounds and smells inspired by such albums as THE BEACH BOYS’ “Pet Sounds”, THE ZOMBIES’ “Odessey and Oracle” and FRANCE GALL’s “1968”. Great albums from a great decade, but FLEUR is NOW and she is in full bloom! “Bouquet Champêtre” was written, recorded, performed and produced by Arjan Spies (THE KIK, LES ROBOTS, THE KRYNG) and Paul Zoontjens (THE KIK, SIMON KEATS) at Studio Teepdek. The lyrics for the album were written by Lou’ Szymanowski (THE PSYCHOTIC SIDEWINDERS) and Fleur.

 

VELVET ATTACK – Visions From Inner Space LP (SFR-127)

A:                                       B:
The Double Cylinder Man Kill The Weekend
Daughter Of The Sun I Cannot See A Forest Without Trees
Hellfire Sound Of Tomorrow 
House Of Correction (It’s The) Dawn Of Tomorrow
You Know Everything Better Drinkin’ Water Prayin’ Wine 


VELVET ATTACK are a 60s based indie-rock-group from Dortmund, Germany formed in November 2018 to play velvet popsike melodies boosted by prog/kraut educated guitar attacks. The five boys have been part of different musical projects (Jelly Planet, Damo Suzuki Band, Astra Kid, The Cheeks), which is reflected in their multi-layered, refined sound.

On the one hand side, they stick to the classic combination of jangling Rickenbacker sounds with fine vocal harmonies as presented by groups from the past, let’s say from THE BYRDS to THE BANGLES but on the other hand side their rock attitude is rooted with punk prototypes to psychedelic from the sixties.

After their fabulous 7” “Human Doll” we can now experience another full-length velvet attack listening to their brand-new debut album “Visions From Inner Space” – and what a fantastic musical attack that is! If it’s softer pieces like the folky psychedelic “Double Cylinder Man” and “I Cannot See A Forest Without Trees” or wilder rockin’ tunes like “Daughter of the Sun” and catchy pop-beat-tunes like “You Know Everything
Better” and “Drinkin’ Water Prayin’ Wine” – this album is definitely top shelf!

 

THE THANES – Roh und lebendig nicht in Köln LP (SFR-126)

A:                                 B:
Our Love Jacky
Cause I See Don’t You Know
Get She Knows My Name
It Disappears Roll-Anda
She’s A Dream Although You’re Gone
Deep Inside I Won’t Go


THE THANES have been playing their 60s style garage beat folk punk pop and odd little forays into the realms of the psychedelic for 30+ years now. These boys from Edinburgh have long become true garage-beat-legends who now release yet another legendary album on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS.

It had been fixed up for them to play at the label’s festival in Köln in December 2021 but as fate would have it it had to be cancelled as the rate of people catching coronavirus was on the rise once more. So, THE THANES thought, they’d meet up anyway and make some noise and have themselves a party.

So that’s what happened they gathered together — Lenny Helsing, Colin Morris, Angus McPake and Gordon Brady — inviting half the town of Edinburgh to join them as you’ll hear down in the depths of their Ravencraig recording lair, plugged in and had themselves some fun playing songs they were gonna play for their international friends due to attend the Ballroom Bash and, hey ho, the result is this raw ‘n alive studio party made in homage to those cool old live albums from the likes of THE KINGSMEN, THE PREMIERS and the 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS. C’mon people crack open a cold one and wig-out on the dance floor to the big beat sounds of THE THANES!

 

THE KRYNG – 12 Hymns To Syng Along LP (SFR-125)

A:                                 B:
Our Love Jacky
Cause I See Don’t You Know
Get She Knows My Name
It Disappears Roll-Anda
She’s A Dream Although You’re Gone
Deep Inside I Won’t Go


THE KRYNG are back once again! These guys are unstoppable, unbeatable music machines, hammering out five albums and six singles in 5 years! No wonder James Brown has beenquoted calling them “the hardest working band in showbusiness”.

Compulsive songwriter Mark ten Hoor (THE NO-GOODS) has made it his number one priority to make sure his fellow band members won’t get any chance to get bored at home. Bassplayer Peter (THE KEEFMEN, LOW POINT DRAINS) has gained so much strength in his fingers playing this much bass, he’s not even allowed to touch his girl and stroke his cat anymore. Drummer Arjan (THE KIK, MARK & THE SPIES) has used up so much drumsticks, it’s been said he’s personally responsible for 80% of the worlds deforestation.

And now! Here’s album number six containing another ’12 hymns to syng along’ to. Jangling (12 string) guitars, great harmonies, pounding drums, a pumping bass and even an occasional mellotron here and there. These are the main ingredients on this album. As cherry on top Dave von Raven (THE KIK, LES ROBOTS) provided piano, pianet and Hammond organ on a few tracks.

THE KRYNG deliver fantastic songwriting that results in a perfect mix of Mid-60’s Garage-Beat and Powerpop with a hint of catchy Indierock – without a doubt an album to listen, dance and sing along to over and over again!

 

THE SILLY WALKS – Trash Attack LP (TTR-019)

A:                                   B:
Who’s Gonna Find Out I Want You Dead
Trash Attack Go The Fuck
Wrecked Oh You 
Watch A Man Die Do The Blowfish
You’re Mine Fuck Yes


THE SILLY WALKS are a rock’n’roll-trio from Montpellier, France. The two boys and one girl have been playing together since 2016 and since released one LP and two EPs. They have an incredible energy that they display during their powerful live-performances as well as through their recordings.

Their new LP “Trash Attack” out on TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS (division of SOUNDFLAT RECORDS) is wild, raw and infectious rock’n’garage, just plain cool and straight to the point and without any nick-nack. Snotty boy-girl-vocals, raw guitars, a stomping beat and lots of cool attitude – they certainly know how to captivate their listeners. You can definitely hear some raw garage-punk influence á la SONICS, some surfy CRAMPS rock’n’wildness and some trashy post-punk-craziness B-52’s-style. Listening to their rocking “Who’s Gonna Find Out” and “Watch A Man Die”, the tough lo-fi “Trash Attack” or the manic “I Want You Dead” you’ll be doing the blowfish – or at least a silly walk – in no time!

So be prepared for a musical “Trash Attack” of the very best kind!

Now it is here: ‘Exploring the Boundaries of the Multiverse’, a DOUBLE ALBUM by your favourite space-bastards, LES ROBOTS! D.V.R. and R-JoHN have been updated with new software which makes them twice as productive and even more versatile lifeless music machines. A great example of technology gone horribly wrong!

This album is the audio-translation of their experiences during the exploration of the Multiverse boundaries. To make this experience as enjoyable as possible, D.V.R. and R-JOHN use sounds and styles from their favourite human musicians, artists and bands. Listen closely and you can hear the Clavioline-madness of JOE MEEK, RAY CATHODE, JEAN JACQUES PERREY and THE TED TAYLOR FOUR, the guitar-savageness of LINK WRAY, THE VENTURES, THE SHADOWS and TERRY TERAUCHI and the straight up spacey-abstractness of TOM DISSEVELT, KID BALTAN, HENK BADINGS and RAYMOND SCOTT.

Released by the good humans from Topsy-Turvy Records (division of Soundflat Records) because they care about multiverse exploration as much as LES ROBOTS do!

 

THE SINO HEARTS –  Lightening The Darkness LP (TTR-017)

A:                                   B:
Goodbye Tonight Commotion Of Love
Passing Shades Another End Of The World
Stranglehold On My Heart 2020
Falling Out Of Love When It Comes To The Crunch
Every Low Hear! Melting Into The Sofa
Teenage Superstar


THE SINO HEARTS are a fabulous 70s Punk PowerPop/Garage-band based in in Beijing, China. After their debut album “Leave The World Behind” (MONSTER ZERO, D.O.G., P.R.) and their second album “Mandarin A Go-Go” (TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS), the trio now releases their third studio album “Lightening the Darkness” on TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS.

It follows their craze of retro power pop like their two previous releases, yet it also continues
to explore the depths of late 70s oriented pop music and approaches musicality and instrumentality differently from the band’s previous efforts.

“Lightening the Darkness” was recorded during the lockdowns of covid outbreak from 2020 to 2021 at Modern Sky Studio and 73 Studio (a unique analogue studio) in Beijing, China, produced by Italian producers Bruno Barcella and Riccardo Zamboni in Bergamo, Italy and partly edited by Tom Zwanzger at S.T.R.E.S.S Studio in Graz, Austria.

This album marks a musical departure from previous efforts, infusing 80s Synth Pop like THE STYLE COUNCIL, THE CURE, Post Punk like BAUHAUS and 90s Indie Pop as the MUFFS, WEEZER, also expresses a personal dark feeling about the isolation from the world; unexpected hardships and political climate. All these influences manifest themselves in an album full of both calmer songs like “Melting Into The Sofa” as well as catchy indie-rocktunes like “Goodbye Tonight” and wild pop-punk tunes like “Teenage Superstar” that all add up to a versatile, great record!

 

MARTIN SAVAGE AND THE JIGGERZ –  Fat City 7″ (TTR-45-005)

A:                        B:
Fat City How Did You Know






MARTIN SAVAGE & THE JIGGERZ are a supergroup international power trio! We have the French-Japanese rhythm section from King Salami & the Cumberland Three, Eric Baconstrip (The Ulcers, Parkinsons, Paul Collins Beat, The Nips) & Kamikaze U.T., who also played in the Chinese Lungs together, teaming up with their old pal, Sweden’s garage-punk legend, Martin Savage (The Blacks, the Locomotions, Tokyo Knives, and a dozen more…). With the Jiggerz’ fourth single after “Time To Get Out” and “Get Away” on Folc Records and “Between The Lines” on Topsy-Turvy Records they give you two more fine 1970’s punk rock hits, simple, fast & straight to
the point, the way it should be.

The extremely catchy title-song “Fat City” is full-speed explosive punk’n’roll while the B-side “How Did You Know” with harmonica and wild guitar has a snotty garage-punk attitude.

Martin Savage & The Jiggerz are pure dynamite!

More Delirium Fuzzy Magneto

THE AUTORAMAS – Autointitulado LP (SFR-124)

A:                             B:
Nóias Normais Estupefaciante 
No Dope Fauna Abisal
Dia Da Marmota Dinamica de Bruto
Boneco O Ritmo Do Algoritmo
Erupto Eu Tive Uma Visao
Sem Tempo I Wanna Be Your Man

Brazil’s finest and wildest unconventional garagepunkers AUTORAMAS present to you their fabulous album number nine: “Autointitulado”! It is no surprise that it is called “self-titled” as it seems to be very immediate and autobiographic. Its fantastic coverartwork by Gustavo Cruzeiro shows the four musicians as comic-superheroes fighting our times of crisis, namely covid and recent chaos and crisis, which is also processed in their music and lyrics.

The album starts off with the strong and powerful “Nóias Normais” that gets you in that typical angry and unmistakable AUTORAMAS-mood right away. One hit follows the next, if it is “Sem Tempo”, “Fauna Abisal”, “Dia Da Marmota” or even the slightly calmer ballad “Eu Tive uma Visao”; this album just grabs you. Catchy melodies and vocals by both Gabriel Thomaz and Erika Martins run all the way through the album while you get the right amount of wild and Autoramas-distorted guitars, crazy organ and comic-style elements in songs like “Boneco” and “Erupto”.

The album was released on CD and vinyl on the Brazilian label MAXILAR MUSIC for the Brazilian market only, while the SOUNDFLAT RECORDS-release of the LP (on yellow vinyl)
finishes off with the exclusive bonus track “I Wanna Be Your Man” – a very fierce and wild version of the BEATLES classic and a perfect ending to an explosive record to be played over and over again.

 

JOHNNY TRAMUNTANA – Carreau Plein Fer LP (SFR-123)

A:                                                B:
Fou d’amour La fille au Coeur d’acier
Entrées maritimes Place cassanyes
Monstre de Rivière Pam est là 
Geronimo Capeline
El viatge Laisse les Filles
Le rêve californien
Le vent
Surf sur la têt

JOHNNY TRAMUNTANA was blown down from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean shoreline some time between the Yé-Yé Sixties and the 80’s garage boom. The tramontane wind that carried the group is at the heart of their sound, along with the Catalan sardane and a certain taste for teenage seaside fun.

From universal love songs, through weird instrumentals to motorbike fantasies, dreams of California girls and tales of everyday life around the market-square, “Carreau Plein Fer” is not afraid to fly the colours of its southern homeland. With the exception of one great cover version of JOHNNY HALLYDAY’s “Laisse les filles” you will find twelve fabulous originals to twist and shout to.

The language is French, the accent proudly local and sung with energetic conviction.

So head down to the beach with your picnic basket and your shades, JOHNNY TRAMUNTANA is waiting to blow you away with their debut album “Carreau Plein Fer”.

Computer Love The Robots
The Model Autobahn
Pocket Calculator Radioactivity
Showroom Dummies Transe Europe Express
Tour de France Neon Lights



Formed in 2006, Although far away from the Tokyo garage scene, THE ROUTES are undoubtedly one of the most prolific underground garage bands in Japan of the last decade.
2021 saw THE ROUTES release three studio albums (two of which were instrumental), taking their album tally up to 10 studio albums. It’s 2022, and not showing any signs of slowing down THE ROUTES bring you “Twang Machine”.

Imagine a bizarre alternate universe in which the Moog synthesizer was invented before the guitar, and visiting thrift stores you’d find records such as THE VENTURES “Guitar Indigo” and DICK DALE “Twanged On Bach!?!“ Well, here is a record that could well be from that universe! THE ROUTES – „Twang Machine“. Yes! Ten slices of KRAFTWERK arranged into mid-sixties instrumental rock ’n’ roll/surf guitar bangers. An aural testament to THE ROUTES’ love and respect of the music of KRAFTWERK. Hear „Showroom Dummies“ reimagined as a Spaghetti Western film opening theme, „Radioactivity“ drenched in reverb ala THE ASTRONAUTS… „Trans Europe Express“ at shinkansen speed racing to burst the sound barrier, and many more of KRAFTWERK‘s classic songs such as „The Model“ or „Autobahn“ as you could never imagine them.

Whether you see it as musical blasphemy or musical alchemy, this album is set to become a cult classic, destined to irk or jerk future generations for years to come.

variety of styles such as reverbing 60’s surf, spaghetti western atmospheres, obscure exotica sounds, twangy rock ’n roll, outer space sounds, hot rod rumblings, etc. in this album and also their first vocal tune: „Urethane“, an ode to skateboarding during night time.

This is an album that definitely takes the band to a new direction, slowly leaving behind the 60’s instro orthodoxy that they’ve been paying tribute through all these years but also never forgetting their roots…

 

THE FADEAWAYS – She Explosivo My Mind (SFR-45-057)

A:                                                 B:
She Explosivo My Mind Loui Loui







After their two hit-albums “Teenage Hitsville!!!” and “Transworld 60’s Punk Nuggets” SOUNDFLAT RECORDS now releases the latest hot 7” by Tokyo’s wild garage-punk-trio THE FADEAWAYS: “She Explosivo My Mind”!

This raw, maximum-energy, lo-fi vinyl-gem is dedicated to the crazy garagepunkers LOS EXPLOSIVOS, the band’s Mexican brothers within the global garagepunk-family. And explosive it is indeed! The ASide and title-song of this single is loud, fast and out of control! Singer Toyozo’s screaming vocals alongside guitarist Assman’s raw punk’n’roll-guitar and drummer Ozzy’s stomping beat are absolutely gonna wipe you out!

Just as you think to yourself, it doesn’t get any wilder and more garage-punk’n’roll than this, the flipside will make you think twice – the boys’ fantastic coverversion of the R&B-classic “Louie Louie” (original by Richard Berry) is really something else! You can definitely hear THE SONICS’ and LOS EXPLOSIVOS’ influence in their version, while they add their own powerful and raw FADEAWAYSenergy to the song.

So prepare yourselves: this 7” is truly gonna explosivo your minds!!

 

THE PARTNERS IN CRIME – Chain Breakers LP (TTR-014)

A:                                                 B:
One Way Ticket Chain
Cold Wind Blows Big River
I Wanna See You Naked Needle In The Middle
Hey Nick Mother Nature Song
Evil Cheatin‘ Little Baby
Mess Around Be Mine


THE PARTNERS IN CRIME and TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS are happy to present „Chain Breakers“, the second album by the Sicilian / Florentine band active since 2015. This album follows the highly acclaimed debut album “Hoodoo Souls”and the “Locked up” digital EP (GOOMPA REC).

This is a record that digs deep with a dark but never pessimistic sound and a hint of irony. Itis a handbook of American Roots Music so loved by the band, which is treated with great respect for tradition but at the same time the need for THE PARTNERS IN CRIME to contaminate it with new ideas is evident. It is at this point that the Blues, Rockabilly, Garage and the characteristic “Hoodoo Sound” of the band spontaneously mix in a cocktail with strong flavours. The album consists of 12 songs, 8 of which are original and 4 re-adaptations.
The album opens with „One Way Ticket“, a song that immediately clarifies the tone and intentions of the band; a garage / rock’n’roll bomb that explodes on first impact. It continues with „Cold Wind Blows“, seasoned with an atmosphere and sound sons of the great JOHNNY CASH and MIKE NESS. The album rises in intensity with „I Wanna See You Naked“ and its incessant shuffle to then land on the funny „Hey Nick“ which sounds like a tribute to the band’s swing roots. You also find a fine tribute to HOWLIN‘ WOLF with „Evil“ and RAY
CHARLES with his „Mess Around ”in a version bordering on punk. Side B of the disc opens with the suffering and profound song “Chain“, a very dark Blues with shades bordering on gospel. It continues with a dutiful homage to JOHNNY CASH and a „syncopated“ version of his „Big River“ and continues with „Needle In The Middle“, a piece that mixes country and punk. „Mother Nature Song“ sung by special guest Daniela „Uccia“ Di Censi is a piece with a purely rhythm’n’blues skeleton, but with the typical sound power of great garage. The last two tracks bring back the atmosphere to the mid-fifties period ;and this is how the vocal harmonies of „Cheating Little Baby“ and the ballad „Be Mine“ close the circle.

“Chain Breakers” is an absolutely explosive and infectious mix of Rock’n’Roll/Rockabilly,
Garage, Punk, Country and Blues to go wild to!

The acoustic-trio evolved around the unmistakable and powerful voice of incredible frontwoman and stand up drummer Boney Shaker. She unbelievably never sang in a band before and only learned how to drum while playing the first street-gigs with the trio, who have been friends long before the band started. Together with guitarist Schorni Walker (THE SEWER RATS, THE FLICK KNIVES) and double bassist Puck Lensing (FRANTIC FLINTSTONES, JIM JEFFRIES, BARNYARD BALLERS) they quickly made the streets, bars and clubs in Germany
dance, shake and sing along to their fantastic live-shows.

After their fabulous debut-single “Shake, Baby, Shake”on vinyl (- TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS‘ first ever release-), the trio kept themselves busy during the pandemic and recorded their very first album “Off The Cuff” with 12 original tunes about love, farewell, party and thestruggles of everyday live. Using only vintage recording equipment from the 30’s and 40’s (recorded and mixed by Puck in the Boneshakers‘ studio) the band creates an authentic and intimate sound, that will sweep you up your feet immediately! Catchy uptempo hits like
“Country Boy With A Rhythm Guitar”, “I Know A Cat” or “Lights Go Out” will make you rock the dancefloor, while goosebumps are guaranteed when listening to the beautiful, melancholic ballads “Take Me Back In Time” and “Going Home”.

Covered in stylish artwork by Marcel Bontempi (THE MONTESAS, DR. BONTEMPI’S SNAKE OIL COMPANY) this smashing debut album by the talented BONESHAKERS is an absolute treat for eyes and ears and definitely shouldn’t be missing from your collection!

Your favourite bastards from outer space are back! ‘Extracts from the Multiverse’ is a 7” EP designed to prepare humans for a full-length album by the fabulous LES ROBOTS coming later this year.

D.V.R. and R-JoHN have been updated with new software which makes them twice as productive and even more versatile – as far as versatile goes for instrumental music machines from outer space – so be prepared!

On this recording you will hear a small selection of experiences and encounters from their quest through the multiverse translated to audio. To make this experience as enjoyable as possible, D.V.R. and R-JoHN use sounds and styles from their favourite human musicians, artists and bands. Listen closely and you can hear the Clavioline-madness of JOE MEEK and RAY CATHODE, the guitar-savageness of LINK WRAY and the straight out spacey-abstractness of TOM DISSEVELT and KID BALTAN. Enough to drive any human insane!

Released by the good humans from Topsy Turvy Records (a division of Soundflat Records) because they care about mankind!

RAZERBILLS – Omniscient Omnipotent Omnipresent LP (coloured) (TTR-010)

Rossito's Revenge Sheba
Tarantula Razerbill Stomp
Death Ride From The Shadows
Like -?- Spellbound Don't Look In The Eyes
Space Tornado Ghost Train


Formed in the Aire Valley area of West Yorkshire, UK, around 2017 – THE RAZERBILLS were inspired by early to mid 60’s instrumental music, fusing this with the theatrics of horror. Artists like SCREAMIN‘ LORD SUTCH, JOHNNY & THE HURRICANES and other more obscure acts helped form their sound.

THE RAZERBILLS like to paint a picture with the instrumental tracks they deliver, so these will often be infused with sound effects and samples from film clips – to add extra atmosphere and interest.

Their look is inspired by the Razorbill bird, a black and white auk that nests on sea cliffs. The capes representing the wings and the masks and fez alluding to the black plumage of the Razorbills head.

After their first EP “La Tombe“ (NORMAL RECORDS), SOUNDFLAT RECORDS-division TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS now releases their smashing debut album “Omiscient Omnipotent Omnipresent“ in coloured vinyl. Alongside fantastic RAZERBILLS-originals it also includes cover-versions of instrumental surf classics from the 60’s such as “Get Your Baby“ by (MARK & THE ESCORTS), “Sheba“ (JOHNNY & THE HURRICANES), “Ghost Train“ (THE SWANKS) or “Tarantula“ and “Like – ? – Spellbound“ (THE TARANTULAS).

Be prepared for some high-class instrumental surf sounds with just the right amount of horror to make you shake your bones all night long.

Unfortunately the pandemic has played against us once again this year – even though we tried our best to organise another volume of our label festival to lighten up these sad and challenging times a little – we do believe it would have been most likely a fanatstic LAST MINUTE BASH – we sadly had to cancel it again after all. However, to cheer us all up musically, here comes the 14th edition of the Soundflat Records compilation CD – the “soundtrack” of our legendary (normally annual) label festival. Like every year, this CD contains songs (- partly previously unreleased!) by each of the bands who were going to play at this wild festival in Cologne. This year the compilation features songs by THE THANES, REVEREND BEAT-MAN, LE CHIFFRE ORGAN-IZATION, THE REVOX, THE HECK, HUMAN TOYS, SALAMI SUX, BEATNIK BANDIT and THE OUTCROWD. This CD is a fantastic item for your personal collection of Garage&Rock’n’Roll-memorabilia and souvenirs, but also a great selection of today’s 60’s Garage- and Beat-bands. A CD that shouldn’t be missing from your shelf!

THE THANES

The iconic Thanes from Edinburgh have been playing their 60s style garage beat folk punk pop and odd little forays into the realms of the psychedelic for 30+ years now and released several album and single releases.

REVEREND BEAT-MAN

Reverend Beat-Man is a One-Man Band who started his career in 1986 in Bern Switzerland with his band „The Monsters“, then founded „Lightning Beat-Man One Man Band“ which later became „Reverend Beat-Man“ .He tours through the world like a madman, won several prizes for his work and was nominated for the Swiss Music Prize in 2014. His music has its roots in the beginnings of blues and rock’n’roll, but with a „NOW!-touch“ and totally TRASHED UP!!

LE CHIFFRE ORGAN-IZATION

Le Chiffre Organ-Ization is a trio of instrumental music. Library, Psychedelic, Pop, Groove are the main themes for this combo from the south of France, which has been practicing all these styles for more than three years now. Several concerts throughout Europe to the group’s assets, 2 vinyl singles on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS and soon, for the start of the 2022 school year, a new album, „The Loved Ones“.

THE REVOX

Hailing from the steepest Alpine summits of Switzerland, The Revox are here to deliver their wild Rock & Roll and are ready to kick you in the most sensitive parts of your anatomy!!! They will certainly make you dance, unless you’ve got no soul. Fuzz on!!!

THE HECK

Wild, wild, wild! 60’s garagepunk outfit THE HECK is sonically a progression from De Keefmen. Feel free to place them somewhere in between The Sonics and Reigning Sound. High pace, hectic and energetic live performances, most usually with several band members ending up somewhere in the crowd.

HUMAN TOYS

Human Toys is a punk rock duo from Paris. Poupée Mecanik (vocals, theremin) likes to play with female archetypes: subversion is the name of the game, humor is the rule. The arrival of guitarist Jon Von, ex-Rip Offs and Jon and the Vons, has transformed the band with a 100% new punk rock set, somewhere between the Ramones and the Avengers! The new LP on Topsy-Turvy records (division of Soundflat) is inspired by topics ranging from B-movies, drugs and perversion to politics, sexism and gender freedom.

SALAMI SUX

SALAMI SUX play a boisterous mix of punk, garage, rock’n’roll and surf. The trio from St. Pölten, Austria makes you sit up and take notice. Aside from the lone fighter „Salami Recorder“ the bandmembers have been active for years in bands like Skeptic Eleptic, Demenzia Kolektiva, Anstalt and The Zsa Zsa Gabor’s.

BEATNIK BANDIT

Brand new mostly instrumental Beat & Roll sensation. Including ex-members/members of the Montesas and the Dark Vatter Combo. A Link Wrayish and Venturesque Hullabaloooo!!!

THE OUTCROWD

The Outcrowd are a four man band born in the lap of Cologne’s sixties scene. The Outcrowd’s sound is pounding and pulsating, with a typically 60’s organ sound and a singing drummer. Genre-wise they’re located between 60s Garage & Soul and put both, passion and the necessary hardness, into their sound!

 

GERRY BRIGHT & THE STOKERS – Stand Up! This Is… LP/CD

(SFR-121/SFR-CD-052)

A:                                                 B:
IntrodAction Heavy Trip #2
Daisy Was Wrong Glory A
The Stoker Psycho Sonic
Devil’s Up How It Feels
Sugar Town Soul Jammin‘
This Way Back


GERRY BRIGHT AND THE STOKERS are based in Rennes, France and draw their inspiration from raw sixties punkrock bands. Their formula is quite simple: guitar, vocals, hammond and drums, yet it is a perfect match for rock’n’roll and will make you shake your ass and dance all night long!
The trio started to share their music with their live-audience in 2014 and after releasing a 7” and a mini-album on CD (GBTS! Records) they are now ready for their first full album as LP and CD “Stand Up This is…” released by SOUNDFLAT RECORDS.

It is a perfect mix between soul and rock’n’roll – a strong guitar, groovy hammond, catchy melodies with powerful vocals, an uptempo full-on beat that put you in an out-of-control dance-mood. It’s the kind of trip that makes your pelvis undulate, a total let-go, music as a release. Their raving instrumentals are just as captivating as their vocal tunes. It is simple, brutal, straight to the point, no need to bother with frills: three chords and a frenzied rhythm, that’s enough to awake the groovy devil inside you. And since there’s no chance that their music will be admitted to heaven, let’s have fun right here and right now!

A dynamited hammond organ, a crunchy guitar and powerful drums… that’s what they play, that’s what they like. And it’s called rock’n’roll. Welcome to Stokerland!

 

SAKURAN ZENSEN – Ore Wa Sakuran Zensen Da!! LP (TTR-009)

A:                                                           B:
Don Dor . London Boots
Rock & Roll Taxi Man
Hammer Matatabi
Blue Curry & Rice
My Harp Monkey O Mankey
Boy Meets Boys


SAKURAN ZENSEN is an explosive rock band hailing from Tokyo, Japan. Consisting of five members all born in 1998, the band’s mix of raucous punk with garage rock/rock ’n‘ roll-inspired songwriting has garnered significant buzz in the Japanese underground rock scene which has been spreading continuously all around the world.

Their smashing debut album “Ore Wa Sakura Zensen Da” was released on CD by SONY MUSIC JAPAN and now also on LP by TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS (division of SOUNDFLAT RECORDS).
Alongside their totally out-of-control and brilliant punkrock hits “Rock & Roll” and “Taxi Man”,which already gained popularity through their vibrant music videos attracting hundreds of thousands of views on social media, you can find nothing but wild and powerful, yet melodic pop-punk-tunes on this album, with just enough Japanese craziness and lo-fi garage energy to go wild to! While “London Boots” reminds one a bit of a faster and rougher Japanese homage to LINK WRAY’s ”Jack The Ripper”, the album also includes melodic pop-punk tunes such as “Don Dor“, “Matatabi“ and “Boy Meets Boys“. However, the catchy “My Harp”, “Blue“, “Hammer“ or “Curry & Rice“ are straightforward high-energy-punk-tunes to fall in love with immediately.

SAKURAN ZENSEN can be compared to a young, highly exciting and very Japanese version of THE HIVES – loud, fast, out-of-control high-energy-punk’n’roll straight from Japan!

 

THE SMOGGERS – Funeral LP (SFR-120)

A:                                                           B:
When You Hold Me Dracula Is Alone
Gente Fea Un Día Gris
Bikers In Hell Mr. Jekyll & Hyde
Tu Sombra 99th Floor
All The Time Psychotic Fear



We’ve got some fuzzy good news straight from the garage for you: wild Spanish garagepunkers THE SMOGGERS have yet another vinyl-gem full of garage-goodies for you! Their eighth LP “Funeral”, and fourth yet on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS, is out right now! After their 13-year-anniversary best-of-album on DEAD BEAT RECORDS last year, these boys and girl kept themselves busy writing and recording some top-shelf brand-new tunes and the result is smashing!

With an amazing production, in this one, you can listen to new sound textures enslaved to the power of fuzz guitars. The band have taken a new step touching a very powerful, harder garage-sound leaving behind their classic moody guitars that you find on their previous recordings. Ana’s raving Vox organ and Fernando’s progressive hard melodic vocals topped off with a rocking beat accompany you through the whole album, which is full-on power and catchy at all times. You can find eight fabulous original tunes alongside two awesome covers of 60’s classics and all-time-faves “99th Floor” (The Moving Sidewalks) and “Hang Up” (The Wailers).

With this absolutely wild LP leadsinger Fernando and his SMOGGERS bury their softer sounds in an explosive, creepy and trippy funeral that will transport you to the dark and wild side of rock’n’roll!

 

THE MIGHTY GORDINIS – Sounds From A Distant Galaxy LP (coloured) (TTR-008)

A:                                                           B:
A Thousand Silver Sun Gun Powder On Your Collar
There Is No Such Thing As A Former KGB Man Trapped Like Rats In A Maze
Jaguar Hunters And Headshrinkers Five Miles South Of Mumbai
Sounds From A Distant Galaxy U-Boat Attack
Shockwave Minnesota Twist
Grabuge A Khartoum A Quick Road To Trouble


The MIGHTY GORDINIS started out in the summer of 1998; their first two albums („Kiss my Wheels“ and „For Bosomaniacs Only“) were a mix of punky hot rods songs and surf instrumentals, while the third one „Fueled on Fuzz“ was fully instrumental and the last, in 2007, „The Future looks like yesterday“ a full vocal one.

After that, the four members went their own ways for a while before the 2020 MIGHTY GORDINIS-reboot with their new full instrumental album. The band is now reduced to two members Nico (ADOLPHE SEX ET SES MACHINES) on drums and Hammond and Eric St John (VICE BARONS, THE RATBOYS, THEE MARTIAN BOYFRIENDS, THE EVIL FUZZHEADS) on Fender Jaguar and bass.

The title of the album „Sounds From A Distant Galaxy“ reflects their new musical expansion of influences, exploring some grounds they never dared to go to before: they incorporated some kraut rock elements („Five Miles South of Mumbai“), some dub sounds („Grabuge A Khartoum“), some spy movie soundtracks („There Is No Such Thing As A Former KGB Man“) and even some cool groovy influences à la acid jazz, be it Corduroy or Mother Earth („Gun Powder On Your Collar“) – anything to keep them away from the traditional surf sound. That being said, they did include a couple of classic surf tracks like „Jaguar Hunters And Headshrinkers“ or the cover of „Shockwave“ (original by ZORBA & THE GREEKS). So this album, limited to 300 copies of coloured vinyl only, displays a very large palette of sounds made for the never ending listening pleasure of the broad minded groovy people.

 

SALAMI SUX – Salami Sux & Roll Vol. 1 LP (coloured) (TTR-007)

The band project SALAMI SUX emerged from the boredom of the lockdown phase of the well-known little thing with 19. With a boisterous mix of punk, garage, rock’n’roll and surf, the trio from St. Pölten, Austria makes you sit up and take notice.

Lone fighter „Salami Recorder“ gives the songs a defined style with his incomparable singing and guitar playing. Bass man „Mots T. Sux“ is happy to leave his usual punk structures, which he has celebrated for years in bands like SKEPTIC ELEPTIC, DEMENZIA KOLEKTIVA and THE ZSA ZSA GABOR‘S. Drummer boy „Thoms’n’Roll“, who was also active in the bands SKEPTIC ELEPTIC, DEMENZIA KOLEKTIVA and ANSTALT, beats songs like „I Wanna Be A Girl “ or „Devil In My Neck“ with passion. Everything is recorded D.I.Y., although no one has a clue. Bad? Yes! That is good and deliberate!

The band recently released the album “Demo Tape” with 13 swinging and danceable hits, digitally and on cassette (limited to 99 copies only). Their musical debut doesn’t just prove successful, but is downright addictive, so that SOUNDFLAT RECORDS-divison TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS now follows with the double LP release of „Salami Sux“ and „Salami Sux ´n’ Roll Vol.1“, as first edition limited to only 300 copies of colored vinyl.

This second album by the Austrian punkrock-trio features the band’s RAMONES-tribute „I Don’t Wanna Be Learned“ (also part of Ramones-Tribute-Sampler „Let’s Tribute To Ramones“ (Kafadan Kontak Records, Turkey)) and guest-vocals by the legendary Wild Evel (THE INCREDIBLE STAGGERS, WILD EVEL & THE TRASHBONES).

Be prepared for 16 brandnew and out-of-control original tunes by exciting Austrian punkrocknewcomers SALAMI SUX on cool pink vinyl!

THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS – Introducing The Fantastic Fellinis LP (SFR-119)

A:                                                         B:
Ultrasonic Superstar Nightmare 
Ring-a-lind Soul Of The Night 
Nothing But A Heartache Mr. Slick 
Taxi I’m Alive 
It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue Buzz 




Evoking the reverberating vocals of a Motown hit, funky grooves of a ‘70s exploitation cinema
soundtrack, and tight fuzz guitars of a garage punk freakout, THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS are an
ultrasonic mod/soul pop explosion! Originating from the star-emblazoned, sleaze-worn sidewalks of
Hollywood, California, the FELLINIS’ sound storms in with a blend of vintage vibes and modern pop
sensibilities.
When songwriter/musician Kenneth Wessel (KISS KISS BANG BANG, THE BEAT KILLERS, ELECTRIC
MIND MACHINE) was tasked to create a music score for the spaghetti western feature Incident at
Guilt Ridge, in the fall of 2018, he lassoed the film’s leading lady, songstress/actress Vitta Quinn
(Vitta In Vaudeville, Passenger Side, A Prayer for the Damned), to lay down vocals for the theme
song. The result was melodic magic and the dawn of THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS. Wessel and Quinn
began to craft a powerhouse set of unique original tunes and a few soaring covers of well-loved
songs by the likes of BOB DYLAN (“It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue”), THE FLIRTATIONS (“Nothing But A
Heartache”) and the classic “I’m Alive” (famously performed by DON FARDON).
In the spring of 2020, when legendary movie director Roger Corman announced his Corman
Quarantine Film Festival, the Fellinis met this lockdown film short challenge, producing a video for
their single “Nightmare.” The dazzling result was the impetus to record and complete a full-length LP. The FELLINIS soon found a home for this eclectic album at renowned garage-beat label SOUNDFLAT RECORDS, who would release their debut LP, “Introducing the Fantastic Fellinis”. As nightlife begins to reawaken across the globe, the FELLINIS are poised to hit the stage, forging a nouveau soul scene for believers in genre-bending retro “Ring-a-Lind.” Coming soon to a music hall near you…THE FANTASTIC FELLINIS!

Wasabi Attack Mongolian Chop 
Calimocho Stomp Concrete Boots 
Guitar Weirdo Tickler Of Fancies 
Shake Five Space Age Blues 
Fashion Victim Ant Hell 



Hot off the heels of the albums „Mesmerised“ (Bickerton Records) and „Instrumentals II“ (Groovie Records), both released in March 2021, THE ROUTES are going for third base (your musical third base that is), with another new album „Shake Five“. This fabulous record is released as an LP by Soundflat Records‘ sister-label TOPSY-TURVY RECORDS and the CD version with a different cover-artwork by DOUBLE CROWN RECORDS!

„Shake Five“ is a collection of ten instrumental guitar songs, inspired by LINK WRAY, ASTRONAUTS, DICK DALE, TRASHMEN and much more… Unlike the large majority of surf/instro bands out there today, THE ROUTES do their instros in raging red raw mono, amp buzz and all. The title track „Shake Five“ is a nod to DAVE BRUBECK’s „Take Five“, as it shares the same 5/4 time signature.

Everyone who digs THE ROUTES‘ fabulous instrumentals, will absolutely love their new album “Shake Five” that doesn’t just look stunningly stylish but also sounds it. Its exciting and versatile tunes make sure that not only surf- and instro-purists are completely swept off their feet!

 

THE CHICKENBACKERS – Crazy Night 7″ (SFR-45-056)

A:                                                         B:
Crazy Night Let’s Take A Chance







After their fabulous debut album „Yeh Right, Yeah!“ on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS, THE CHICKENBACKERS have a 7“ ready for you which is just as fantastic! Get ready for two great new songs with a refined BEATLESque Liverpool-sound.

The A-side „Crazy Night“ is just pure rock’n’roll! Their fantastic lead guitar is accompanied by a very
bluesy harmonica and results in fantastic Merseybeat at its very best!

„Let’s Take A Chance“ is the boys‘ personal cover version of the famous song „Renacerá“ by their favourite Spanish 60’s band THE BRINCOS. They wrote their own English lyrics for this version, which
are a response to this past crazy year we all had to deal with around the world.

This 7“ represents a bridge between THE CHICKENBACKERS‘ first LP and their upcoming one, they are currently working on and we can definitely look forward to, as it will be a true 60’s explosion!

 

CHILD OF PANOPTES – Walk With Me 7″ (SFR-45-055)

A:                                                         B:
Walk With Me Guess I Was Dreaming 







This fabulous new 7“ out on SOUNDFLAT RECORDS introduces CHILD OF PANOPTES, a new band from France whose musical style embodies the psychedelic era of the late 60‘s and early 70’s embracing British freakbeat, popsike and American garage-psych-rock.

The A-side “Walk With Me“ is the band’s smooth own composition with a groovy organ, dreamy reverbing vocals by moony singer Beatrice and a cool beat. A downright cool popsike-tune with subtle jazzy elements and a dreamlike aftertaste!
The B-side of this single is an absolutely stunning coverversion of THE FAIRYTALES‘ “Guess I Was Dreaming“ (broader known in the KINGSMEN-version of the song). Singer Beatrice sounds a bit like FABIENNNE DELSOL and is accompanied by a dark and sinister hammond organ and a lot of ARTHUR BROWN-like coolness in this amazing tune.

CHILD OF PANOPTES‘ debut release Walk With Me“ is a perfect mix of late 60’s psychedelia and jazzy 60s-hammond garage-rock with a modern approach that will blow your minds!

 VELVET ATTACK – (She’s A) Human Doll 7″ (SFR-45-054)

A:                                                         B:
(She's A) Human Doll Dr. Jesus Gonzalez








VELVET ATTACK are a 60’s based indie-rock-group from Dortmund, Germany formed in November 2018 to play velvet popsike melodies boosted by prog/kraut educated guitar attacks. The five boys have been part of different musical projects (Jelly Planet, Damo Suzuki Band, Astra Kid, The Cheeks), which is reflected in their multi-layered, refined sound.

“(She’s A) Human Doll” is their very first release, an incredible 7” limited to 300 copies only.

The melodic title song is an absolutely infectious, catchy tune with a strong beat and rocking guitar that display singer Kono’s cool vocals, emphasised by harmonic background vocals.

The B-side “Dr. Jesus Gonzalez” sounds, however no less exciting – beautiful, psychedelic guitars and dreamy vocal harmonies mark a brilliant flipside to the hit-like title-song.

These boys just nail that perfect late 60’s British freakbeat-sound and transfer it right to the year 2021!

These two songs are an exciting foretaste to hopefully many more velvet attacks in the future!

 

SHUTDOWN 66 – Come On Girl Gimme Half A Chance LP (SFR-117)

A:                                                         B:
Crashdown Day Started Over 
You’re Killing Me Down Julie 
I Dig The Way You Put Me Down In This Town 
Come On Girl Gimme Half A Chance I Saw Something Good (I Had To Make It Bad) 
Our Love Is Gone Wallpaper Man
I Don’t Wanna Cry The Saddest Girl 
Too Many Women And Not Enough Lies 

Melbourne’s legendary neo-garagepunkers SHUTDOWN 66 are back again! Featuring members of THE BREADMAKERS, HEKAWIS, THE PURITANS and DRIVEWAY SERVICE these boys have created their own unique and mindblowing sound, strongly influenced by 60’s garagepunk and British R&B, that has a worldwide fanbase. Between 1998 and 2004 they released four smashing albums and several singles and split-singles on  CORDUROY RECORDINGS – all of which sold out long ago; while GET HIP RECORDINGS reissued their debut album “Welcome To Dumpsville” the other albums are hard to come by. Now SOUNDFLAT RECORDS wants to make sure that their fourth album “Come On Girl Gimme Half A Chance” (originally limited to only 100 copies) is available again, seeing that it is our mission to keep providing you with the best of today’s garagepunk and this album definitely is among the essential must-haves.

You get that premium stomping garagepunk with a strong R&B-infusion flaunting dirty fuzz-guitars, the right amount of farfisa-organ and harmonica, and of course singer Nicky Shutdown’s cool, screaming voice!

While the catchy “You’re Killing Me Down” and “In This Town” remind one of 80’s-garagepunkers THE MIRACLE WORKERS and snotty songs like “I Dig The Way You Put Me Down” and “I Saw Something Good (I Had To Make It Bad)” go more in the raw, punky direction best compared to bands like THE GRUESOMES and with “I Don’t Wanna Cry” and “The Saddest Girl In The World” they also added moody garage-rock-songs.

An absolutely stunning garagepunk-album, indispensable to any good record collection!

 

THE MERGEERS – Three Apples In The Orange Grove LP / CD (SFR-116 / SFR-CD-051)

A:                                    B:
Outta My Way Better Days 
Herman Maybe All You Need Is Time 
Seekin’ For The Light End Of The Day 
In Course Of Time Right As Rain 
Till You Get Me Sold Down The River 
Dear Ms Allen Win Hands Down 
Mauerpark


After three fabulous digital single-releases in advance, here comes the eagerly awaited third album by THE MERGERS! While their smashing debut album “Monkey See, Monkey Do!” sold out in no time and the four boys from Nuremberg delivered mindblowing live-shows all over Germany, Europe and even during a two-week-long tour through Japan, they also released their fantastic second album “With A Carrot And A Stick”. With their songwriting and arrangement strongly influenced by British rock- and popculture, THE MERGERS capture their audiences not only on stage, but also attract an international fanbase that is completely addicted to their recordings. It goes without saying that for SOUNDFLAT RECORDS once again there was absolutely no question about releasing the band’s third album (LP, CD and digital release) “Three Apples In The Orange Grove”.

The record’s very first song “Outta My Way” is pretty similar to what you might expect from your favourite German beat-quartet THE MERGERS – a smashing hit-title, that is extremely catchy with powerful guitars and a spot-on beat. Yet, it becomes clear very soon, that this album differs quite a bit from its predecessors. The songs invite to dive into a psychedelic, dreamy and very refined musical symphony. Paisley-pop-tunes like “Herman”, “Right As Rain” and “Maybe All You Need Is Time” mix with beautiful ballads like “In Course Of Time” or “Win Hands Down”, the Britpop-hymn “Better Days” sounding like it should be an OASIS-hit, and wilder, rockin’ tunes like “End Of The Day” and “Mauerpark”.

With this album it seems the boys from Nuremberg have immersed themselves in the British sound of the late 60’s and merged psychedelic freakbeat-sounds with their own, unique and timeless, fresh songwriting. With beautiful vocal harmonies and lots of reverb as well as an expansive array of swirling guitars, their sound comes across almost dreamlike, reminding one of bands like TEMPLES, TAME IMPALA, JACCO GARDNER or FOGBOUND.

THE MERGERS’ third album “Three Apples in the Orange Grove” may be somewhat of a musical surprise – however in the best way possible!

 

THE HECK – Heck Yeah!! LP (SFR-115)

A:                                    B:
Move! Fight Tonight 
City Trash Hit Me, Hit Me, Hit Me 
Shit On The Radio Hate It Here 
Chance To Change Song In My Head 
Let Me Through Heck Yeah!! 
Hectic Lifestyle No, No, No 
Guilty Thin Line 

“Heck Yeah!!” – this is the spectacular second album by the Dutch 60’s garagepunk-trio THE HECK around leadsinger and musical mastermind Henri Keefman (DE KEEFMEN, SENSATIONAL SECOND COUSINS). Expect full-on punkrock-tunes with catchy songwriting at maximum energy!

After their smashing debut album “Who? The Heck!!!” (DIRTY WATER RECORDS) and some legendary (international) live-shows, where they shared the stage with the likes of THE SONICS, the boys released three limited singles prior to their second album in coloured vinyl (SOUR BOMB RECORDS) to give us a first taste of what to anticipate on this explosive record.

Side A is definitely the more melodic side. It contains their hit singles “Move!” and “Shit On The Radio”, accompanied with new hit tunes like “Hectic Lifestyle” and “Let Me Through”. The organ is back as well and wails smoothly on “City Trash” and “Guilty”. Side B kicks off ferociously with “Fight Tonight” and “Hit Me, Hit Me, Hit Me!” They continue full speed, kicking you right in the keister with title track “Heck Yeah!!” and give everything one more time with “No, No, No” before they close the deal with the full acoustic tearjerker “Think Line”.

Musically the band still goes somewhere between the SONICS and REIGNING SOUND. But they dare to catch some energy of other groups like THE HIVES as well, while never losing their main focus: writing future sixties pop classics, served with the power and intensity of punk. This new record makes them really interesting to listen to and every ingredient is included to make it a true classic in the scene or even beyond that.

Available on limited glow in the dark vinyl (100 copies) and regular black wax

What's Wrong With You?


The WYLDE TRYFLES sound wild and out of control, playing their modern take on ultra-fuzzed 60s garage-punk, full of snotty garage vocals, screams, back from the grave vibes and hypnotic dangerous beat!
The sound of their new LP “Fuzzed And Confused” is a continuous wave of influences from 60s and 80s garage punk area, such as The SHADOWS OF KNIGHT, COUNT FIVE, The CYNICS, The TELL-TALE HEARTS, The PANDORAS and, of course, The SONICS! Just the way you like your daily dose of fuzz! If it’s the smashing garagepunker “Gonna Miss Me”, the dark yet wild and surfy “Creepy Thing”, their fuzzed-up version of 60s-garagepunker “My Confusion” by THE ELITE or sexy-wild cover of MUDDY WATERS-classic “I Just Wanna Make Love To You” -THE WYLDE TRYFLES combine a punky fuzzguitar, crazy organ, a lot of energy and wylde reverberating female vocals by powerful frontwoman Lubna Bangs.

Tokyo-based Garage-Soul band WINSTONES finally release their debut album and while the CD-version is released by Radio Underground Records, the LP-version is released by Soundflat Records sister-company Topsy-Turvy Records! Over the past decade these four boys have played in numerous garage/punk/rock-bands (including legendary punk-rock band Teengenerate) before they formed this new musical project moving towards a funky, soulful New Orleans-R&B-influence, yet keeping their punk’n’roll-wildness to their sound.

These four Japanese boys sure have a lot of soul in their veins; their album “Sunshine City” consists of 14 cover versions of soul/R&B-classics. “Ain’t It A Sin” (Charles Bradley) gets you into the cool groove of the record right away and you’ll find yourself moving along to the rhythm and chanting along to the classic mod hymn “Somebody Stole My Thunder” (originally by Georgie Fame) or uptempo soul stomper “I Was Born To Lose Out” (James & Bobby Purify) or their version of “Down Home Girl” (Alvin Robinson). Unique screaming vocals by singer Motor Ken and the band’s refined sound take you through their versatile selection of tunes, that one cannot get enough of!

Samehada Typhoon

SAMEHADA SHIRIKO & DYNAMITE are from Fukuoka, Japan and have played together since 2013 now, ever since released three albums and played countless explosive live-shows. The group around dynamic and beautiful singer and guitarist Shiriko, mad lead guitarist Abbey, stylish bassist Wetton and classy drummer Massiveeffect have an intense stage presence combining retro- and modern style in a fun and crazy way. Their third album “Newretrock” is just that – powerful retro-rock which
is refreshingly new at the same time.

The LP was previously released as CD (Sazanami Records) and contains 12 songs, including a coverversion of a band-favourite, “Dangerous Saturday” (originally by Japanese girl-group The Candies from the 70s) among 11 originals. It is covered in a pretty artwork, somewhat influenced by classy 60s and psychedelia. Be enchanted by the “Enchanting Newretro World”, rock and boogie along to “Old House Boogie”, shout along with “That Girl’s Shout” and finally get overwhelmed by “Samehada Typhoon”.

Samehada Shiriko & Dynamite have a highly unique, very Japanese, slightly crazy sound one can hardly compare with others, yet it is somewhere in between nostalgic Japanese Group-sounds, 80’s-“Mentai-Rock” and Girl-Garage-Punk with a few 70’s- and hardrock-influences here and there – certainly one of a kind!

The album contains 10 fantastic new songs, musically among 60s Garage,70s Punk/Powerpop,Neo Mod and other outdated guitar romantics. These Chinese punkers are just incredible and will absolutely blow your minds with their powerful, fun music!

 

Human Toys – Spin To Win LP (TTR-002)

A:                                   B:

Trashman                        Church of Lux
He Said Yeah

They are sexy, they are powerful, they are subversive! HUMAN TOYS is a raw punk rock duo with female vocals.

Poupée Mecanik (vocals, theremin) has a penchant for playing with female archetypes : subversion is the name of the game, flavored with a generous dose of irony.
The arrival of guitarist Jon Von, ex-Rip Offs, has transformed the band with an all-new set of punk rock somewhere between the Ramones and the Avengers !
On the forthcoming LP on Topsy-Turvy records (a division of Soundflat), the songs draw on subjects from B-movies, drugs and perversion to politics, sexism and gender freedom.

HUMAN TOYS have musically reformed since their previous record “Excuse My French” on Records Ad Nauseam and while one may find a lot less electronic/electroclash-influence in their music now, there is definitely a higher dose of wild punkrock! Whoever has had the pleasure to witness one of their fantastic live-shows around the world so far knows that they deliver full-on power and punkrock energy with a tough and seductive attitude.

musical duo (or quartet in live-shows) now delivers something oriental – their latest 7” released by TOPSY-TURVY-RECORDS (Soundflat Records daughter-label) invites you on a musical spaced-out magic-carpet-ride!

Listening to “Cameltoe A Go-Go” you can almost hear the camels grooving through the moon-desert while being hypnotised by belly-dancing genies; this song is absolutely enchanting! The B-side “Invasion Of The Ara-Bots” musically revives adventures of 1001 Nights; it’s a dramatic, exotic surf through space. You can still hear their strong musical influences of the instrumental 60s (The Shadows, The Ventures, Link Wray) that are taken to an oriental future this time in a brilliant way!

Expect a lo-fi raw and explosive mix of crazy garage-punk with loads of energy and a huge amount of wildness! The album includes fantastic, tough versions of 60s garage-rockers like “I’m Rowed Out” (originally by The Eyes) or punky versions of classics like “Que Sera Sera” (Doris Day), “Hold On I’m Coming” (Sam & Dave) and “Secret Agent Man” (Johnny Rivers) and mix them up with wild originals that have so much power and cool attitude, you won’t believe your ears!

Wade In The Water (There's A) Ghost Inside The
House
Confusion, Trouble Chains Of Time
And Despair
Back For More Gypsy Woman
Come Back No More Going Home Baby
Baby Don't You Weep Baby I'm Coming Home
15 Days, 15 Nights I'm Going Home


ROMAN AND THE ROSARYS channel the trance like monotony, the drama and the female worship of the Rosary prayer into 12 minor key dance numbers.

“Going home with Roman and the Rosarys“ was recorded by Jim Diamond at Living Room Sounds and features Roman Aul (REDONDO BEAT) on Vocals and Guitar, Maximilian Schneider (REDONDO BEAT) on Drums and Thomas Bruchhäuser (THE SATELLITERS) on Bass.

On their debut album they hijack early 60s Memphis and Detroit RnB numbers and twist them, in alignment with Roman Aul’s originals, into little 2 and a half minute soap operas that plea for salvation on this journey to paradise.

If it’s their captivating approach to classics such as “Wade In The Water” or “Baby Don’t You Weep” (original by FRED BRIDGES), or breathtaking one-of-a-kind tunes like “Confusion, Trouble and Despair” or “Chains Of Time” that sound both exciting and elaborate, almost like a brilliant version of NICK WATERHOUSE that meets JAMES HUNTER SIX. You’ll have no choice but to fall in love with this album from the start!

In THE MINGS they teamed up to play some great primal Garage/Surf/Punk’n’Roll to go wild to!

THE ELECTRIC MESS – The Electric Mess V LP/CD

(SFR-108/SFR-CD-050)

A:                                  B:
Too Far Speed Of Light
Bad Man Laserbrain
Last Call Before The World Bloes Up
Cesspool Strange Words
City Sun After The Money's Gone




New York City’s THE ELECTRIC MESS returns with a bang on their fifth album, „The Electric Mess V“.
Formed in 2007, the band is fueled by 60s garage, 70s punk and hard rock, psychedelia, and New Wave. They have toured throughout Europe and the States, putting on tight and electrifying live shows. Led by the chameleon-like front-woman, Esther Crow (vocals, rhythm guitar, percussion), with Oweinama Biu (keyboards, vocals), Dan Crow (guitar), Derek Davidson (bass), and Alan J. Camlet (drums, vocals), THE ELECTRIC MESS has taken their songwriting to the next level on this record, taking the listener on a melodious trip over the course of its 10 tracks, with all of their influences on display. It was recorded and mixed at Hoboken Recorders by Alan J. Camlet, and mastered by Jim
Diamond.

Side one opens with „Too Far,“ a fine slice of West Coast folk/psych, with layered guitars and soaring vocal harmonies, and the tough Brit-Invasion type R&B of „Bad Man,“ followed by the dark psych pop
of „Last Call,“ with its haunting choruses and break. The band adds synthesizer to the mix this time out, prominently featured on the New Wave garage punk rocker „Cesspool,“ and on „City Sun,“ the dystopian proto-punk ripper that closes side one. Side two opens with „Speed of Light,“ a space metal/punk barn burner that Hawkwind might have been proud to call their own, and the slow jam „Laserbrain,“ with acid fried guitars and swirling organs. „Before the World Blows Up“ is darker surf punk that asks a serious question for today, while „Strange Words“ is the angry love child of The Stooges and Blue Oyster Cult. The album closer, „After the Money’s Gone,“ is mellower psych-rock that darkens with time and repeat-listens and an apocalyptic outro.

„From harmony-laden hard folk to psych-pop, the ingredients of their sound lead to tracks like the Nederbeat soundalike „Last Call“ and then switch back to the punkier Johnny Thunders vibe of „Cesspool“. The band is certainly no one trick pony… If heavy psych/rock is your thang, check it out.“ (Shindig!)

„With three excellent songwriters, fierce playing, and urgent vocals, The Electric Mess are contemporary and forward looking, yet planted firmly in the great tradition of Nuggets styled garage rock.“ (Sal Maida, bassist, Sparks, Roxy Music, Cracker)

 

HIGH OCTANE BOYS – The Change I Need  7″ (SFR-45-053)

A:                                  B:
The Change I Need Down On Boring Street








HIGH OCTANE BOYS are currently the top 60´s garage rock band in Norway. The group, consisting of veterans from the Norwegian surf/garage scene, started off playing a rawer kind of instrumental rock that gradually turned into a wild mix of fuzz and farfisa with fantastic vocals.

When looking at their brand-new 45 “The Change I Need”, covered in a stylish 60s-styeartwork displaying their current line-up in outlines, it immediately becomes obvious what their music is all about and where the boys draw their inspiration from – namely all these fantastic 60s Garagepunk-pioneers such as THE MUSIC MACHINE, but also organ-driven fuzzy garage-revival-bands from the 80s till now.

“The Change I Need” will absolutely take you away – what a mighty sound with a heavy fuzzguitar, wild farfisa, a strong beat and vocals! This is downright fantastic songwriting reminding one of the likes of THE SATELLITERS.

But don’t be scared, the B-side “Down On Boring Street” does not at all take you to musical Boring Street, but it does just the opposite! It is a catchy Garage-dancer with a fine beat that you’ll find yourself playing repeatedly.

“The Change I Need” by HIGH OCTANE BOYS – a highly exciting must-have 7” for any lover of garagepunk-music!

A:                                  B:
Lo Que Daría Yo Recuerdes Para Mí








Not long after the recent release of their sixth LP, the wild Spanish garagepunkcombo THE SMOGGERS present you with their latest single “Lo Que Daría Yo”. The 7” is a fantastic extra to perfectly complement the album musically. You get two fine Spanish garagepunk-tunes with a heavy dose of fuzz-guitar, screaming vocals, a crazy organ and a lot of wildness!

“Lo Que Daría Yo” is a highly addictive, honest garagepunk-song that has a lot of 80’s Garage-revival to it. And the flipside of the 45 is even wilder, starting off with a captivating fuzz-sound, which is followed by a catchy melody spiced up with hammond organ, a punkrock-harmonica and screaming vocals.

This 45 is ideal for spinning at maximum volume on your wildest garagepunkrockparties to set the dancefloor on fire!

 

THE MINNESOTA VOODOO MEN – Voodoo Stomp 7″ (SFR-45-051)

A:                          B:
Voodoo Stomp Ikimochi








THE MINNESOTA VOODOO MEN formed in 1998 in Tachikawa near Fussa, the capital of garage rock/group sound in Japan. They have since not only developed a unique and absolutely fantastic lofi-garage-surf-beat-sound but also built their infamous reputation as mindblowing live-act while touring throughout Japan as well as all over Europe displaying crazy yet stylish Japanese “Merseybeatle” Ringo, wild drummer Pete and frantic guitarist Fabian playing his guitar virtuosically while hanging upside-down from the ceiling.

After their several first releases on Japanese labels and their LPs (“s/t” and “Shake Your Mind”) and lastly their 45 (“Don’t Come Around”) on Soundflat Records, this brand new 7” “Voodoo Stomp” is their first release since 2012 and it was definitely worth the wait! The title-song “Voodoo Stomp” is an extremely catchy, cool 60’s-beat-tune while the B-side is a live-recording of “Iikimochi”, a slightly calmer ballad. Both songs have Japanese lyrics and of course they have that raw Voodoomen-sound that we all love, containing Ringo’s rough
voice, a wild guitar and a stomping beat.

Finally here it is: a new piece of hit-vinyl by our favourite Japanese Garage/Beat/Surf’n’Rolltrio!!

A:                       B:
Hey Boy Tallahassee Lassie








Formed in Tokyo in 2013, three young girls are continuing the tradition of Japanese garage rock. Taking inspiration from the 60s ‘Group Sound’ through to 70s punk, THE HIGHMARTS will outdo all the boys with their primitive fuzz guitar sound.

After their sold-out first CD “Early Recordings” on Sazanami Records and their fabulous debut 7” “I Want You Bad” on Radio Underground Records, they now serve us another brilliant 7” on Soundflat Records: “Hey Boy”, that does not only look great but it certainly also sounds it!

The title-song is a HIGHMARTS-original showing off a very authentic 60s-Garage-sound with a powerful guitar, a fantastic beat and Japanese vocals with great harmonies. It just makes you want to dance instantly!

The B-side is a coverversion of the Rock’n’Roll classic “Tallahassee Lassie” (Freddy Cannon), performed in a cool 60s-garage-girl-way that only leaves you longing for more!

Make sure you get yourselves this fantastic new 7” by Japanese newcomer Garage-girl-trio THE HIGHMARTS!!
