Wild Psychotic Sounds EP

Let’s be honest about this: the Dublin stalwarts aren’t going to win any awards for innovation, but it would be a harsh critic who can’t see past that. The six-track EP, which clocks up nearly 20 minutes, is mostly a perfect hybrid of The Cramps and The Ramones (The Horrors, in other words). There are pipe organ frenzies, rumbling bass lines and plenty of garage rock shouting, but check out the country-esque ‘Going Home’ if you think they’re one-dimensional. That’ll learn ya.

Some Kind Of Kick

Having promised so much for so long, The Things have finally delivered. While previous efforts like 'Demon Stomp' and 'Psycho Lover' brought fine doses of schizophrenic blues and garage punk to the party, the Dubliners' recorded efforts always seemed disappointing when compared to their furiously frantic and fabulously ludicrous live shows. All that has changed. 'Some Kind Of Kick' is a near perfect slice of punk rock. So feverishly does vocalist Neilo howl out his sleazoid predatory lyrics, it's as if his larynx is about to explode at any minute. The type of rock tune any band would kill to have written.
