THE ZOMBIE DANDIES – Lo-Fi Heroes / (Self – released ) 2014. / CD / Glam punk/garage rock – FRANCE
The Zombie Dandies are project / band of two interesting guys from Normandy, France. Marty Dandy (drums, bass, guitar and vocals) and K 1000 Zombie (guitar and vocals), started out in 2011 year, and in following 2012, they have released an EP, in old – fashionable DIY manner.
“Lo-Fi Heroes” is their first full-length album with 13 tracks in, done with interesting glam punk views, with additional package of garage rock idioms, released a few months ago. Its stylish visions are in some parts strange, in other parts pretty melodic, with interesting lyrical approaches and unexpected performing lines. In some aspects reminds on late 70’s USA horror / garage acts, but also posses enough originality as well.
A production is simply, clear and in other hand poor, but that was their decision. Without a too much expectations, a French fellows drives own cadillac in only possible positive way, and that’s a most important thing… for now…
Iz Normandije, Francuska, dolaze dva momka koja su pokrenula bend / projekat nazvan – The Zombie Dandies. Startovali su 2011-e, da bi sledeće, 2012. godine u sopstvenoj režiji, u starom dobrom DIY maniru, objavili EP izdanje.
Pre nekoliko meseci, na sličan način, realizuju i prvi full-length, na kojem se našlo 13 numera. Sa jedne strane oslanjaju se na tradiciju glam punk forme, kojoj dodaju garage rock idiome. Takva kombinacija zna da zazvuči prilično čudno, mada u isti mah, njihovi songovi zadržavaju neočekivanu melodičnost i slušljivost. Podsećaju u određenoj meri na USA horror / garage aktove iz druge polovine 70-tih godina, mada im se ni jednog momenta ne može oduzeti originalnost koja je izražena i vidljiva.
Produkcija njihovog albuma je jednostavna i jasna, takođe i vrlo “siromašna”, ali u krajnjoj liniji, to je bio njihov finalni izbor. Na kraju, može se reći da bez mnogo očekivanja, Francuzi guraju svoj film i voze sopstveni kadilak na način koji se njima sviđa, ne upuštajući se u trendovske igre. A to je i najvaznije… bar za sada i u ovoj fazi njihove karijere…
