hey folks, we have new releases out now!
MURDER BY GUITAR
Rock Bottom / I´ll be Gone / Wrong Side of Town
7” 33RPM (SNATCH! 036)
With this brand new band our dream comes true for a guitar driven power pop band taking the best of its genre, leaving out the extra glossy magazines to strip down sing-along songs, fans put on rotation for days like us. When these kind of powerful songs are getting rarer and rarer (we don´t talk about pink dots fluffy pop), we have well known protagonists here popping up. It´s two third of the LOCOMOTIONS, whose debut album was one of the coolest garage punk platters ever came out of Sweden. On the one side it´s Loco Lopez (vocals, dynelectron) who is one of the guitar heroes in our 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 recorded 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 loaded with well placed hot licks! It´s so terrific, we signed them for a 7” and a forthcoming LP/CD right away. Our “new band”-pick of the year! Pressing 500 black and 100 colored vinyl for mail order only.
THE TURPENTINE BROTHERS
Get Your Mind Off Me / Not Your Fashion
7” 45RPM (SNATCH! 037)
Out of control dance craze! First ever two song 45 RPM 7” on ALIEN SNATCH! The Boston trio spit out their whole record collection and a distinct dirtbag of talent and soul with two perfect simple yet more firing songs! To get a picture by following traces of Greg Cartwright musical history, you accidentally could file the songs on the adorable REIGNING SOUNDS “too much guitar” album or get reminded of the sadly missed JEWWS playing for a teenage twist party. TURPENTINE BROTHERS are real and kick those two smashers out in a breathless rush and made this a upbeat blueprint of a killer garage rock 7”. The wall of sound crushes on you like a blizzard. In all the hooky organ fuzz (Zack Brines), crude guitar and trashy percussion (Tara McManus) - its singer-guitarist Justin Hubbard raunchy darkly-reverbed shouts out vocals which make you beat the interior next to you to let the excitement out. Yeah, and on top Taras screamy backing vocals and handclaps chaos - this 45 is a knockout on yer next DJ battle! Justin and Tara began as a raw two-piece playing primal HASIL ADKINS and old-time country covers as a way to scam free drinks off of club owners. Soon Zack joined and Justin has gone on a songwriting rampage on basement blues, mid 60´s soul and proto-punk which led to the first release, the remarkable “we don´t care about your good time” album on ALIVE/BOMP. Clouded in an aura of an unearthed gem it gained outstanding reviews thru out die hard lowdown rocknroll minimalists and vintage rock revivalists. The Turpentine Brothers got it down and we have nothing than the greatest respect and belief for their output. Music fans - take a note for this brilliant 45!

THE KIDNAPPERS
Ransom Notes and Telephone Calls CD
+Zaxxon 7" Bonus (SNATCH!020)
LP out of print
Re-release of that now considered as the outstanding punk album of 2003 by this german three-piece. “Ransom Notes and Telephone Calls” got raving reviews and fans all over the world and was ranked in many Top Ten lists that year. CD version comes with the no equally acclaimed follow-up 7” on Zaxxon Records, Canada. Both vinyl records are out of print, so finally we decided to re-release the songs remastered on this new format for all Johnny Come-Late´s and another round of world conquest of these highschool fellows. Comes with all their hits and also their mindblowing covers of LOLI & THE CHONES, TEENGENERATE and one song Brian Hermosillo (The FEVERS) once wrote for them. The KIDNAPPERS took the KIDS punk, drenched it with that undeniable power pop of the late 70s one hit wonders, those 90´s fast paced killer nippon sound and the howling of the MURDER CITY DEVILS. The KIDNAPPERS are now Beat-It (guit, voc), Chris (bs, voc) and Timo (drums) and just released their second album “Neon Signs” on RIP OFF Records and are the continent and the UK in August 2006. Over and out!
