New Releases For Sale/Distro Updates / Re: HOMELESS update: DENNIS (ex Bits of Shit/Whipper) and WILFUL BOYS out now!
« on: February 22, 2020, 07:28:49 PM »
DENNIS - The Enthusiast
The debut of Melbourne punk rockers DENNIS featuring members of Homeless illuminati BITS OF SHIT and Aarght Records WHIPPER (who also featured Nic Imfield of TYRANNAMEN and Lewis Hodgson of CIVIC / CUNTZ).
Songs are short, shards of your fave scratched 45's. Sounds swiped from the Saints, X, Germs... You witnessed Bits of Shit. You own the Whipper 45.
"four local gents from such esteemed high-grade/low-rent rock & roll units of yore as THE SAILORS and BITS OF SHIT. They're now a little older and perhaps no wiser, but they've made a really great album in the process. You'd have to be a smokin' joker not to hear the distinct GERMS influence in their music and Darby inflections in the vocals - but that is not a bad thing! Throw in some early SAINTS, ADOLESCENTS and Born Innocent-era REDD KROSS and you're orbiting the DENNIS universe." - Round and Round Records
"first wave nods to The Saints, Germs, and raw and ragged tales of The Stooges, though perhaps the most modern connection seems to be from Timmy Vulgar’s camp. There’s more than a bit of his acid gargle in the vocals here. There’s a snottiness to the record that’s surely on par with The Dead Boys, though the approach is much harsher — DENNIS boasts less swagger than even those degenerates and proudly so. This is a scum dredged vision of punk, just as it should be, soaked and sodden and wrung dry over the tape machine until all the bile was documented and decoded." - Raven Sings The Blues

WILFUL BOYS - Life Lessons
Brooklyn, NY's THE WILFUL BOYS follow up to Rough As Guts, of which New Bomb Turks Eric Davidson stated "For the few mining the post-pig fuck sound of mid-’90s Amphetamine Reptile Records (and there are some), few make the brutal redux swing like this newbie Brooklyn bunch."
"The tunes thrash and shred and get a bit too noodle-y before going back to straightforward rock’n’roll. All that seemingly messiness sounds kind of nice with the lights turned down and your head on the floor." - Carolyn Keddy, MRR
"it's noisy and although quotes from reviews had me expecting a more Aussie flavoured dish, I'm picking up similarities in sound to Stevenage band Bad Breeding. Maybe I should wash my ears out? Anyway, it's good stuff. This is my favourite so far by them." - Just Some Punk Songs
“The perfect modern companion to the Cosmic Psychos and Easy Action Records that helped countless young men grow chest hair in the ’90s.” – Matt K, Yellow Green Red
