Jacky Cougar & The Vampyres From Africa

Jacky Cougar & The Vampyres From Africa

    Debut solo album from DC polymath Jack Abok. When not making zines and visual art, singing for Des Demonas' or drumming AND singing for SEXFACES, Abok's busied himself by bringing this, his most personal and ferousious vision, to (immortal) life with VAMPYRES FROM AFRICA.

    11 tracks of electro punk, melding Abok's massive love for the delta blues, post punk, Krautrock and hip hop. Or, in his own words:

    VAMPYRES FROM AFRICA MANIFESTО:

    1. Ideas > skill
    2. Don't be a musician
    3. Cool > smart
    4. It's not about money or being liked, it's about expressing ourselves.
    5. Bands should have an expiration date
    6. Fuck originality!
    7. Don't stop creating

    And Syd's Angelika Piper at the Gates of Dawn:

    "All movements is accomplished in six stages And the seventh brings return The seven is the number of the young light It forms when darkness is increased by one Changel return / success Going and coming without error Action brings good fortune Sunset"

    Loose Lips

    Last Laugh

      True enough, “loose lips sink ships” but depending on what’s being said, those same lips have the uncanny fast’n’loose power to SHAKE HIPS. Now just like all those sage philosopher kings and queens of yore would say, friends, it’s long time we: SPILL IT!

      Melbourne, Australia’s LOOSE LIPS couldn’t concur more on their debut album Last Laugh, proudly released by Dig! Records, and self-released by the band from their home base in Melbourne, Australia.

      The world may be ending, and you’re not getting any younger, but rock’n’roll rings eternal, so we’re letting it all hang out across 10 unadulterated tracks of spirited revelry, plenty: young, loud and snotty. But also skilled, melodic and heartfelt.

      If you haven’t yet heard the word, Loose Lips are Josh Hardy (guitar/ vocals; the Chats and the Unknowns), Ethan Stahl (bass/ vocals; Chubby and the Gang, The Prize, Street Sweeper) and Nadine Muller (drums/ vocals; the Prize). The sum of their top-shelf pedigree, Last Laugh, is a certified heater sure to rattle your jelly brain and jumpstart all your other fun parts.

      Forged from rock’n’roll incarnate, Josh and Nadine met on tour with their other bands, and bonded handedly over their love of 60s groups like the Ronettes, The Dave Clark 5 and the Shangri-Las, alongside their later counterparts: the New York Dolls, Eddie and the Hot Rods and Blondie. Last Laugh is a DIY love letter sealed with a kiss; made by friends, for friends—new, old and waiting in the wings.
