Song Of the Day: April 6, 2005
Sorry about the blip yesterday. I'll try to see that it doesn't happen again. The guys and I have recently spent some time revisiting our favorite 80s garage revival discs. I actually liked a lot of that stuff (including all of the oft-maligned stuff on Voxx), and it introduced me to a lot of the 60s classiscs that hadn't been unearthed on the more visible compilations like Nuggets and Pebbles. Sweden had a strangely large number of good 60s-influenced bands during this period: The Stomachmouths, The Nomads, the Shoutless, the Creeps, and many others. Shamrock J. Cat says this is one of the best, and despite never having actually been in a garage to my knowledge, he is quite an authority.

'tis a shame indeed that in this world of the Hyves people do not know the real Swedish garage.
This two-and-a-half minute gem kills anything The Hives could dream of doing - everytime I hear a song like this, I think this is what *good* rock n roll was/is supposed to be: dirty, offensive, noisy, well-constructed. This is one sick song. Thanks!
