Run Amok

Garage Blitzkrieg Rock Misfits THE GLÜCKS Ran Steamy Amok At Ghent Fest

THE GLÜCKS – Ghent Fest, Belgium – 19 July 2018

What the fuck! Belgium‘s sweatiest, thrashiest and steamiest 2-motor garage rock engine nailed it again. Yes, folks, furious amok runners THE GLÜCKS played a smashing set yesterday at Ghent Fest. These two mind-twisting drums/guitar misfits turn into an unstoppable volcanic eruption the second they hit the stage. They scorch, whizz, roar, scream, rumble, twist, shout, yell, rebel, steam, blaze, boil, burn, electrify, steam, whirl, discharge, thunder, smash, rock, drumfire, trigger, resonate, blister, inflame and turn
a hungry crowd into a state of trippy ecstasy. They all did this and more once again, last night in my hometown. Heavy shit! Smoking stuff! Fierce noise! Red-hot blitzkrieg! Hot-blooded performance! Hail hail The Glücks! New video ‘Why Do I Love You?’ will give you
a cracking idea of their psychobilly power…

And here are some yesterday’s visuals…


Hit! Hit! Hit!…


Spitting fire…


“My name is Tina too!… Tina Turner”

Mean machine…

THE GLÜCKS – Supersonic Starfighters Cause Earthquake On Album Release Night…

Posted on by JL

THE GLÜCKS – Charlatan Club, Ghent (Belgium) – 23 March 2018

What the hell happened last night in my hometown Ghent?
Was it a sonic tsunami? An ear-deafening tornado? A kick-ass rollercoaster? A smacking whirlwind? A terrific thunderstorm? A hellish hallucination? An electric chair experience?
A fucking Nightmare on Elm Street? The Ostend Chain Saw Massacre? Or the Tina Witch Project featuring Alex Kreuger? It was all this and much more. It was that two-headed machine-gun beast called… THE GLÜCKS

What were these misfits actually doing?
It was the release night of their second longplayer titled RUN AMOK. A filthy animal
of a record resonating at times as if it was recorded by a schizophrenic Manga army with paranoid problems. Yet, on first hearing, this new baby sounds more versatile and more melodic than their full-length debut detonation. But I need a couple of more spins to fully absorb all the new firecrackers, brick by brick. And so should you. It’s a lot cheaper than therapy…


Hammering Tina...


Riff Junk Alex…

What about the audience?
Totally committed to the new shit from the turbulent start to the explosive finish! Bodies flew around as if it was a human air show for wackos. Heads pirouetted uncontrollably while a wall of decibels crashed the sound system without mercy and on repeat. Crack! Boom! Wham! Damn! Bam! Walls got wet because of the tropic heat. Sweat streamed
non-stop, adrenalin streamed non-stop and beer streamed non-stop while psychedelic images on a screen behind the band caused rapid-eye-movement in the crowd. You get the picture, ladies and gents? The Cramps are the Devilish-Psycho-Masters Of Slam-Garage-Billy and these two rambunctious misfits, Hammering Tina & Riff Junk Alex, are without a shadow of a doubt their coolest apostles. HAIL HAIL… THE GLÜCKS
