Description
If you just dip deep enough into the grotto of 80’s garage-punk you’ll still find some incredible treasures of this genre. It certainly needs to get introduced to all you garage heads around the globe. One of these ‘lost jewels’ are the WOODY PEAKERS from Pordenone, Italy. This release, compiles their 1988 LP , 1990 EP and 5 previously unreleased songs, which is nearly all of the group’s recorded output. The guys deliver their 100% pure 66 US teen punk, like the 70’s never happened, while avoiding all the comic book trappings that plagued so many 80’s revival bands. They successfully tackle the Love, the Squires, Gonn, the Remains, The 5 Canadians and more, but the real merit of this collection is the band’s own songs. All of the tracks are strong compositions, that wouldn’t be out of place in a Pebbles or a Back From the Grave volume. They span all the range of garage music, from frantic r&b stompers, to moody folk punk, to fuzz monsters. Highly Recommended.
