Teenage Frames "1% Faster" Catalog #JUMP028
* CD/LP $10 post paid |
|
|
The
Teenage Frames play thoroughly modern, high energy rock and roll,
and they play it in a way that hasn't been heard in a long time, mixing
and matching a number of seemingly unconnected musical veins--glam
attitude, punk energy and power-pop stylings. Their debut album 'More
Songs, Less Music" immediately created "hometown" followings throughout
the Midwest, and now this Chicago band is poised to break into the
big time with this, their second release. One half of the album was
recorded with Steve Albini (Nirvana, Bush) manning the board and one
half was recorded by Mike Hagler (Wilco, Billy Bragg). And just to
make sure no one in their right mind will want to miss this album,
PRB Publicity's Yvonne Garrett (Mojo Records, Dropkick Murphy's) is
also on the team. The Teenage Frames' first album met with unanimous
critical praise in the US and Europe and received airplay on commercial
alternative and college radio stations on both continents. They've
toured extensively behind the record both in the US and Europe, performing
with bands such as Marky Ramone and the Intruders, The Queers, Less
Than Jake, and the Mr. T Experience. This album will yield even bigger
results as the band plans to hit the road in support of this album
and stay on it until the job is done.
For Fans of: Electric Frankenstein, Ramones, Odd Numbers, Clash, MC5 (Wayne Kramer), New York Dolls, Cheap Trick, The Strike, The Jam, The Hellacopters, New Bomb Turks Teenage Frames: 1% Faster (Jump Up) With strong elements of both circa ’77 UK punk/pop (think Vibrators, SLF, Generation X) and Yank punk/rock of the same era (Dead Boys, bit of Dolls), the Teenage Frames grind it out in an effort to make the big time. They have some good tunes and it certainly sounds like they are trying their best to raise some shit along the way. I haven’t ever seen them live so I can’t really say if they deliver the goods in a club, but if they can score guys like Albini to twiddle the knobs in the studio they must be doin’ somethin’ right. PLAY VERY LOUD! (14 tracks and available on vinyl!) (Colin Bryce/Mohair Sweets) Check out the bands homepage at www.teenageframes.com |
