The Stomachmouths - "I'm Going Away * Eegah * Cry" ( 2nd 7'' Single - Got To Hurry - 1986)

The Fall of 1985 found the Stomachmouths with an addition. Anna Nystrom played the organ and sang back-up. In their sound nothing changed actually . The same wildmen, playing the same snotty and outta control 60s punk. The follow up to the hugely successful debut 45 released through Got To Hurry records, a label based on Stockholm and basically a record store. It had three monsters in the same vein of their first and manic 45rpm. Wailin' vocals, blast this mutha out guitars, a rhythm section that instead of keeping things at a normal state, derailed them and one of the coolest farfisas the last 30 years at least. The personal favorite "Eegah", still remains one of the coolest surf instros written by a garage band. The legend wants it to be inspired by an Arch Hall Jr. movie. One more thing that made me love immediately this piece of vinyl, was the front sleeve. The band in a classic 60s pose, wearing tailor made suits and ties in a way most original garage bands looked like. Once again, forget the mop tops, this is the real thing!

The Stomachmouths - This Is...The Stomachmouths (Sunlight - 1st 7" - 1985)

Another fave band of mine, of course from Sweden and of course a megalith of this monstrous garage punk revival that took place in the 80s. I liked their image more than all the others! There's something here i always wanted to tell. All these bowl haircuts were sure awesome and incredibly cool but...tell me a garage band of the 60s with this image (except for the Music Machine) and I'll quit writing my opinion.
Don't know where this fashion started but Mars Bonfire never was an alienated punk kid (although a cool person) like the Sonics or Larry & the Bluenotes...
The Stomachmouths were and still are the only true DNA originals with the aforementioned punks.
This is their first offering. Snotty and savage the way garage or better...punk should be played!
A vinyl rip of course...Stay tuned more to come.
A blast in few chords!
