about
"Sick and bored!" By no means...The London death squad has on the fifth longplayer no time for boredom and, contrary to the Colombian name donor, the blood boil hot, but not splash. This is ensured by a brilliant best of...reference list, the road of the best can be used as a blueprint: 77 razor melodies of the BUZZCOCKS, including melancholic note, meet the alcoholized Badass sleaze / punk'n'roll of the HUMPERS, including demonic strumming piano. Firewater! Flying furniture! The intro of "Blur the lines" kicks the brilliantly dry RAMONES beat (Tommy!), "I remember you" quotes THE NERVES in sugary sweet harmonies. Bang! Bang! Bang! Three for the price of one: sharp-catchy 77s Punk rock, sweaty Punk'n'roll, charmin' Powerpop, LOS PEPES know the answer to your desires. 12 songs. 12 promises kept.
