RANDY RECORDS strikes again, this time with a new 7 inch EP from chicago's garage upstarts, UH BONES, entitled ONLY YOU...... and if you're looking for some soul drenched / fuzzed up / rambunctious garage rock, look no further than this EP.....
few bands hit the mark when trying to revive the spirit of those classic NUGGETS era singles like UH BONES......notice i said spirit not sound, this is not regurgitation....or "garage rock revival".....on ONLY YOU, UH BONES take the path trail blazed by the SONICS, CHOCOLATE WATCH BAND, the KINKS and/or the SHADOWS OF THE KNIGHT, but follow it through the MILKSHAKES / THEE MIGHTY CAESARS and onto the MUMMIES and LES SEXAREENOS, where they end up juicing their garage punk with extra attitude, reverb and melody......ready to get the kids dancing all night long like garage rock was meant to do in the first place....... too many bands just take the template without any of the rhythm & blues or backbeat that was the basis of rock n roll in the first place.......
sure the onslaught of so-cal bands exporting garage punk these days is great, but maybe it just takes a band from chicago, the home of bo diddley, howlin wolf, muddy waters and chess records to really take garage rock back to its wild, unhinged and in yer face roots.........
these four songs are absolutely killer.
UH BONES should not be chicago's secret anymore.....
ONLY YOU is as recommended as they come......
listen below and get the party started !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks RANDY RECORDS....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
