Murder By Guitar
Rock Bottom/i'll Be Gone
With this brandnew band our dream come true for guitar driven power pop band taking the best of its genres, leave out the extras glossy magazines to stripped down sing-along songs fans put on rotation for days like us. When these kind of powerful songs are getting rarer and rarer (we dont talk pink dots fluffy pop), we have well known protagonists here popping up. Its two third of the LOCOMOTIONS, which debut album was one the coolest garage punk platters ever come out of sweden. On the one side, its Loco Lopez (vocals, dynelectron) who is one of the guitar heros in the ALIEN SNATCH! marvel set and genious songwriter of the SONS OF CYRUS and LOCOMOTIONS, on the other side we have the unstopable Martin Savage (vocals, danelectro) of the LOCOMOTIONS, BLACKS, DIXIE BUZZARDS backed from like minded Rikard Johansson (vocals, drums). This combination making you tense and jitter till you either start to fail in rock moves or get down in awe. All songs recoderd live in an outstanding studio which put the guitar sound to a new level diamond brilliancy while damn loud and penetrating. The square but not trashy vocals add power and make the songs even more memorable songs. MURDER BY GUITAR has the magic like the REAL KIDS would back ROKY ERICKSON on TEENAGE HEAD songs, full of hooks and and loaded well placed hot licks! Its so terrific, Alien snatch! signed them for a 7" and a forthcoming LP/CD right away. "New band" pick of the year! Limited 500 copies.
