One thing I knew before getting acquainted with the music of Hunx & his Punx is that punk can handle any sort of weirdness basically, the more, the better. But I remember how I couldn’t really tell if it’s love or hate when it comes to Seth Bogart and his style –  is gay punk just a stupid joke? Or is it something that new bands are really lacking maybe? Since the irresistible  pop tunes of Hunx & his Punx took the control out of my hands, I don’t really care if it’s trashy and sometimes disgusting – as long as it’s fun and my parents would definitely hate it (oh and one more thing, I just love Shannon Shaw who’s also a lead figure in the band)

Here’s their new album, titled Street Punk, a twisted attempt, you might think and you are right. I’ve heard it somewhere that if you want to make an album as quick as possible, you should turn to street punk – so, whenever I hear the album title, I smell a big deal of irony – needless to say, even though the new songs have a more overdriven sound (especially the opening track Bad Skin),  it’s really far from street punk. But would you miss the soundtrack of supermasculine agression when you can have super-witty ill-behaved fun garage songs instead??

If you like to giggle, here’s a new video with 3 Hunx tracks and hilariously careful narration – the album is available from Hardly Art Records, one of my favorite labels these days!

The White Hills has started in the early 2000s. Dave W. was dissatisfied for previous bands and decided to start his own one. He played every instrument on the early recordings, but has found a fix mate, the bassist Ego Sensation soon. Dave W. was discontented with the audience in the US too. “Fuck the States! I’m not gonna bust my ass to drive hundreds and hundreds of miles to play to nobody.” He has got his main musical influences from England and Germany: Hawkwind, Pink Faires, PIL and NEU!, Amon Duul II, so they went to Europe to search audience for their heavy psychedelic rock. And there they have meet with success. After a self-released CDr (2003) the first White Hills album on label released in 2005 by Julian Cope’s Fuck Off & Di Records in England. Since then they have been releasing their works continuously by various labels. And they are a really active band. The brand-new dose: So You’re… So You’ll Be. I don’t want to write about it too many. The point: heavy psychedelic space rock. Sometimes emerge a little Twin Peaks feeling there, but perhaps only for me. Maybe it is the first case that there isn’t 10+ minutes track on their record, so it is a receptible album for those who better like the hard rock and roll than the heavy psychedelia. Listen!

Euro Tour Sept 12 – Oct 22

Fuckin’ US summer tour with The Cult…

muslicák most borban úsznak
korhelykednek utolsót
égbe meredt rovarlábbal
nem remélnek koporsót

fehér galamb száll a légben
égi békenagykövet
ütközvén a villanydróttal
szénfekete hulla lett

almát gyűjt a sündisznó hogy
legyen néki betevő
ám miként azt megkóstolja
várja a sün-temető

rókakoma sompolyog a
baromfiudvaron
géza gazda a sufniból
fémfejszével sújt nagyot

és midőn a rókafarkat
kedves nejének visz át
megbotlik egy rossz gyökérben
s ott azonnal exitál
