Du Hesch Cläss, Ig Bi Träsch

Slovenly

***Slovenly’s mother tongue recordings imprint is psyched beyond belief to present to the freaks and creeps of planet Earth, the 8th LP from Switzerland's THE MONSTERS—Du Hesch Cläss Ig Bi Träsch (“You’re Class I’m Trash”)! Scandinavian Bestial Death Metal? PUH-LEEZE. Japanese Harsh Noise? GIMME A FUCKIN BREAK! This is the true evil that rock’n’rollers do, and you’ll be trembling in your creepers before your asses even get close to bumping to the radical raunch contained on this truly amazing long-player. Even long time rabid fans will be stunned by the sheer magnitude of nastiness and horror here, and if you’re a newcomer, we wish you the best of luck! Yeah, that’s a harpsichord and a choir on the intro. Oops, that’s the outro. We listen to shit backwards and you should too. But so fucking what? Religion rightly scares the piss out of us, and The Monsters make no bones about their just demands of servitude. But you know what the craziest part of this disaster is? It’s not simply that it transcends any trite categories like “GARAGE,” or “PSYCHOBILLY,” or even just (JUST!) “ROCK’n’ROLL,” it’s your perception of maestro BEATMAN's tried and true and fried as fuck vocal throttle that’s damaged even further by him singing in Swiss-German for the first time on any of his vast catalog o’ cool, and it’s for the entirety of this monster swingin’ album! You want the English version? Well take your ass to his legendary Voodoo Rhythm label (Records To Ruin Any...

I'm A Stranger To Me

Slovenly

***What the fuck did we do to deserve this? Swiss trash punk legends THE MONSTERS are finally draggin’ our wee label down into the sewer after over 30 years of corrupting kid’s craniums with their corrosive caterwaul, and who are we to do anything but succumb? LIGHTNING / REVEREND BEAT-MAN and crew are blowing atomic snot rockets across this new 7-incher—their first record in a coon’s age—with a catastrophic blast of breakneck scuzz’n’scum on “I’m a Stranger To Me,” backed with an exercise in desperate ‘n dumb destructo-doom on the flipside’s “Carpool Lane.” These two disturbing tracks are brand new, never before issued recordings, but in true Slovenly style we also have a cassette ready for your hoopties and ghetto blasters with a bonus selection of previously released Monsters’ shit including “Blow Um Mau Mau,” “Baby OK,” “Ce Soir” and “More You Talk Less I Hear You” (from the album “Pop Up Yours” 2011), “One Woman Is Not Enough” and Happy People Make Me Sick” (from the album “M” 2016), and “I’m Always Wrong” and “Get On The Right Track baby” (from the album “Birds Eat Martians” 1998).
