THE WILDEBEESTS "Sticky Death Molecule" 1997

Armed with 50 watts of PA power, 115 watts of sheer sonic force in all, John, Russ,and Lenny built up a formidable local following with gigs at the Legendary Tap 'O Lauriston, Cas Rock and the Limbo Lounge in Glasgow.After various singles and EPs on SFTRI, Screaming Apple and Teenage Kicks, the Lairds Of The Boss Racket have added another 5 to finally present this stupidly titled long player. THE WILDEBEESTS are Russ Wilkins (THEE MILKSHAKES), John Gibbs (THE KAISERS, THE MASONICS) and Lenny Helsing (THE THANES). For this occasion they have written for the first time 10 originals ranging from crude 77 style punk rock and 60s influenced trash to a couple of unashamedly primitive instrumentals. There are also 5 cover versions including Devo's Secret Agent Man and a German version of Chuck Berry's All Aboard. This sounds like Mr Wray, Mr Diddley and Mr Moped locked in a room with a tub of Lard and a Bosch power tool.THE WILDEBEESTS:
Russ Wilkins: guitar, vocals / John Gibbs: bass, vocals / Lenny Helsing: drums, vocals

trax:
