FOUR-TUNE TELLERS/X-RAY HARPOONS - STORM/SNAKE WOMAN
Swedish Garage maestros - THE FOURTUNE-TELLERS - joined forces with Bonn's (Germany that is) own THE X-RAY HARPOONS for a - what I call: fuzz-a-tastic split7inch. The Swedes contribute a moody/folky ballad called: ''Storm'' written by Jens Lindberg known from the 80's pioneers Crimson Shadows and The Stomachmouths. Recorded and mixed by The Moving Sounds members: Peter Rosn and Per Wollbrand. See, it's a perfect mixture of legendary members of Scandinavian 80s/90s Garage/Mod scene + the best recent Garage band out of Stockholm. The X-Ray Harpoons throw in their fuzz- and farfisa-drenched ''Snake Woman''. Mix horror fiction fuzz punk'n'roll inspired by B-movies from the 5ts & 6ts + garage legends like The Fuzztones, The Blue Magoos and The Sonics add a dash of wicked psychedelia. Not the average 60s Garage revival band, but mindmelting fuzz and organ driven teenangst sounds that would fill the dancefloors in a better world. Grab the platter and you'll get two killer bands in one package!! All housed in heavy cardboard sleeve designed by "Magnificent" Kiryk and on shiny purple vinyl (ltd. to 400 copies) TRACKLISTING: 01.
