Waking Up With Garage Punk Psychos SLOKS And A Knife In Their Hands

Posted on by JL

Daily noise that works faster and harder than any stimulant

22 April 2023

Back in 2021 draconian Italian garage punk trio SLOKS their
second LP titled A Knife In Your Hand. It felt and still feels like
a tornado of hard-hitting uppercuts.

Turn Up The Volume wrote: “Problems with your demons? Get out of your straitjacket and join this wild party of illegal decibels, messed-up hullabaloo and in-your-face and in-your-ears madness right here, right now. No rest for the wicked. No rest for all you pighead punks out there, hiding in the woods. Time to come out of your caves and go mental like The Cramps
did night in, night out at midnight when the bats woke up.”

Sloks started a European tour a couple of days ago. And next Tuesday they’ll hit my hometown of Ghent (Belgium). My ears can’t wait to absorb their psycho-delic attacks.

To get in the mood
I’ll play the album
a few times, with
a knife in my hand.

Hell yeah!

Posted on by JL

3 September 2021

Band: SLOKS
Who: Three noisy outcasts from Turin, Italy with
Tony Machete (drum), Ivy Claudy (screaming/snare)
and Buddy Fuzz (strings)

New album: A KNIFE IN YOUR HAND
Released: 3 September 2021 via Voodoo Rhythm Records

Turn Up The Volume: Problems with your demons? Get out of your straitjacket and join the wild party of illegal decibels, messed-up hullabaloo and in-your-face and in-your-ears madness right here, right now. No rest for the wicked. No rest for all you pighead punks out there, hiding in the woods. Time to come out of your caves and go mental like The Cramps did night in, night out at midnight when the bats woke up.

This rip-roaring record is a very loud and very clear proof that you don’t need a prog-rock orchestra of 20 overpaid musicians to scare your neighbors. Yes, it takes only 3 deranged gunslingers to challenge the noise-pollution police. Capisce? You betcha! Now take your sharp-cutting knife and imagine that you’re Norman Bates in Hitchcock’s classic thriller Psycho. Big fun guaranteed!
