I Like You But Not Like That

Devils In Disguise – ‘I LIKE YOU BUT NOT LIKE THAT’ By Garage Turbo THE DARTS

Posted on by JL

7 June 2020

The Devilish American Rip-roaring Turbo Squad – in short THE DARTS – unleashed
their second fantabulous album, entitled ‘I LIKE YOU BUT NOT LIKE THAT’ one year ago
via their friend and punk legend Jello Biafra‘s record label Alternative Tentacles Records. An inflammable piece of sexy organ-fueled firework. A heated mix of the nastiest vibes of 60s garage rockabilly injected with an illegal dose of Riot Grrrl flamboyance and spiced with a blazing portion of Cramps hullabaloo.

These four graveyard loving ladies can heat up any lame party. I saw them do it twice.
The King would have called them ‘Devils in disguise‘. Oh, and did I mention they look,
walk and talk as one of the coolest gangs that ever walked this lockdown planet?

Let’s have some foreplay with the two steamy singles of the LP…

– BREAKUP MAKEUP –

– I LOVE U 2 DEATH –

Posted on by JL

Clips that will have an impact on your eyes and your ears…

13 August 2019

American garage misfits THE DARTS scored the liveliest and sultriest LP of the year so
far with I Like You But Not Like That. To remind us all of that indisputable fact they just unleashed a new video for ‘BREAKUP MAKEUP’, one of the hottest cuts on the LP. It’s the first time that I and probably you too will see flashes of the rockin’ ladies in white dresses. Beware, don’t let them fool you. They didn’t turn into angels overnight. They still rattle like bloodthirsty devils. They still race like sizzling beatniks. Check it out for yourself here…

TURN UP THE VOLUME’S ALL STAR TEAM – Best Albums Of 2019… So Far

Posted on by JL

The albums that had a buzzing impact on Turn Up The Volume‘s greedy ears so far this year…

all

‘Drogel‘ by FONTAINES D.C. (Dublin, Ireland)
A razor-sharp modern day post punk record about youth’s anxiety and apprehension for the future. Packed with adrenalized ripsnorters having an instant impact on your body’s movements. These young Irish wolves with their charismatic frontman will be big soon.

Play here…


.
‘Serfs Up!’ by FAT WHITE FAMILY (London, UK)
South-London‘s desperadoes are back with a versatile record of multi-layered tunefulness, hypnotic grooviness and funky psychedelia. Less provocative, but still enough wicked tales and barbed observations. Half speed, half valium. And live still one of the trenchant best!

Play here…

.
‘Schlagenheim’ by black midi (London, UK)
Indie guitar explosiveness with an experimental bravado, a deafening weightiness, and an acute vox in the middle. Totally refreshing, nastily cutting and forthright. Imposing debut!

Play here…

.
‘Welcome To Silvertown’ by SAINT AGNES
After years of sweaty work this 4-headed British psycho-blues-rock turbo released its
RIP-ROARING debut lonplayer filled with filthy licks, devilish hooks and hair-rising guitar electricity while singer/guitarist Kitty Austen leads the wicked troops with sensual panache!

Play here…

.
‘Amyl And The Sniffers’ by AMYL AND THE SNIFFERS (Melbourne, Australia)
70s punk and glam rock revisited with kamikaze frontwoman Amyl Taylor spitting and sneering madly and wildly. The Runaways, The Plasmatics and Motörhead, all in one. Ace!

Play here…


.
‘Peuk’ by PEUK (Belgium)
Smashing debut achievement by this fresh Belgian grunge engine with clamorous and soul-stirringly howling singer/guitarist Nele screaming her heart and lungs out and leaving you behind out of breath and pretty puzzled. Gloriously noisy and exorcistic! Hallelujah!

Play here…


.
‘I Like You but Not Like That’ by THE DARTS
Sultry, steamy, snappy, savage, sensual, sweltering and sizzling. Yep, THE DARTS are back with their second LP! Furious garage fireworks to go nuts to the way YOU and THEY like it.

Play here…


.
‘Musica Alla Puttanesca’ by MADONNATRON (London, UK)
Spellbinding sonic mantras wrapped in seductive tunefulness, both poppy and punky. Spooky stories interwoven with astute humor. And… best album title AND artwork in ages.

Play here…


.
‘Pursuit Of Momentary Happiness by YAK (Wolverhampton, UK)
This glowing trio’s second LP surprises in a bizarre, yet very fascinating way by its mystifying mix of nastily loud and strangely quiet, its fuse of reflection and rage. Top!

Garage Force THE DARTS Unleashes New Bass Slam Serpent ‘LOVE U 2 DEATH’…

Posted on by JL

Daily fuel to load your sonic batteries…

4 May 2019

After their steamy 2017 debut album Me.oW rocking Phoenix/LA steamrollers THE DARTS are gearing up to launch brand new longplayer I LIKE YOU BUT NOT LIKE THAT. But for all you impatient, drooling fans out there who can’t wait here’s the lead single.

LOVE U 2 DEATH is a slow bass driven slam moving dangerously like a vicious serpent, slowly but surely heading towards its prey. Nicole Laurenne‘s possessed sounding vox affirms strongly her unyielding power. ‘You have no idea what I’m capable of‘ she warns
with a witching whisper. Demonic guitars and some sinister keyboard sequences add to the overall puzzling eradiation of this sweltering love story that has the scary imagery of
a haunting Nick Cave murder ballad. Don’t be afraid, tune in right here…

US Garage Fury THE DARTS Announces New LP ‘I LIKE YOU BUT NOT LIKE THAT’…

Posted on by JL

13 April 2019

The fabulous-tastic garage fury THE DARTS has announced their brand new second LP.
‘I LIKE YOU BUT NOT LIKE THAT’ will hit the streets hard on 24th May via their friend and punk legend Jello Biafra‘s record label Alternative Tentacles Records. Pre-order facilities right here. ‘Who’s this band?’ I hear that one poor ignorant guy in the back ask?….

“THE DARTS (US) have exploded onto the scene with a fiercely classic sound that invests deeply in late 60’s garage, incorporating tones of horror-punk and garage-psych. Live, THE DARTS hurtle through songs with the reckless abandon of a freight train about to run off the rails, while their calculated musicianship sets a seamless trajectory of grooving hooks and restless boogie backbeats. If Elvira and Wednesday Adams consumed the flesh of man, drank shots of snake venom, started a garage rock band, and played the bride of Frankenstein’s bachelorette party,
it would probably sound exactly like THE DARTS.”

Last year Turn Up The Volume saw these awesome garage devils going bananas in Belgium twice. Check out why THE DARTS is one of the best live bands on this planet here & here .
