GERM HOUSE/FAR CORNERS “Split” C60 (Fuzzy Warbles Cassettes)

This split between Rhode Islanders showcases two bands breathing some new life into the garage rock canon.

On side A, Germ House plays lo-fi 60s garage psychedelia with some serious bass angularity to keep the kids twisting & shouting. Plenty of CCR and early Sonic Youth-esque notes sprinkled about, too!

On the Far Corners side, all that throwback psychedelia is swapped out to make room for heaviness, FC employing a pointier distortion and more post-rockin’, left-hook rhythmic shifts.

This is one loud, rockin' release, with all levels up in that RED.

WARMLY LIGHTS “Warmly Lights” C21 (Fuzzy Warbles Cassettes)

One decaying, vintage drum machine ribcage rises out from a pool of amorphous, muddy, analogue synth mantras* and their myriad blooms of fungal distortions. Birds and children faintly accent distant scaffolds of their own fulfillments. The wind and sun shove and tug in equal measure on the earlobes. In the midst of all this stimuli, all us calm, bright, consonant. Warmly Lights doth warmly light the way.

PELVI$$ “Pelvi$$” C20 (Fuzzy Warbles Cassettes)

Saxophone in the front fucking seat, Pelvi$$ storms into town dripping all manner of corrosive fluids and dust clouds that’ll linger for weeks! They have a song titled “Blood Wiser” and you know they’ve been shot-gunning that shit in the front seat since the emergency brake snapped.

That brass fucking swagger, man; those pregnant tones that bond to and heavi-mah-fy all surrounding distortions, amplifying the hefts and punches of each and every bass & guitar rhythm wrung.

&lest we forget the cosmic hurtling of words outward, each salient syllable blindly searching for meaning in this swampy, mired existence. Fucking Pelvi$$, man. Don’t need any hip puns, just good-natured catch & release. Rocking the fuck out.

My good neighbor, Mr. Internet, sayeth that Pelvi$$ self-identify as “psychedelic sludge punk on a swamp pop skeleton” and I hereby fully endorse this description to the max.

PLAY LOUDER THAN YOU SHOULD
IN THE AFTERNOON!!!
