Dum Dum Boys Up & Down With The Dum Dum Boys

The best Dum Dum Boys album yet?! Yes! All their different styles on one record, from fuzzy and thrashy songs to heart-breaking ballads, from noisy to electronic, from exciting rock'n'roll to hypnotic pop, from ultra-short and fast tracks to long and moody ones! An "Up Side" with fast, short and noisy songs, full of fuzzes and screams and electrifying rhythms. And a "Down Side" with mid-tempo, moody, dark songs, dirty synthesizers, rhythm machine, and languid guitars. (But both sides are equally ultra-intense, edgy, noisy and primitive sounding.) Recorded in an abandoned slaughterhouse (!), mixed in a hot and damp basement, in a raw and primitive way with everything put in the red, like a mockery to modern technology. it's not just a return to the garage, it's back to the cave! And if it wasn't such an old worn-down cliché, there should have been written "Play it loud" in huge letters on the cover because that's the way you should listen to this record, the way to really go "Up and Down with the Dum Dum Boys".
