Description
TV Freaks – “People” LP
The fourth long playing effort from these Hamilton, Ontario garage punks, and their first in five years. Ten tracks in half an hour, largely recorded live-off the floor in a single weekend at vocalist David O’Connor’s home studio. Gritty edged, Stooges style hardcore with an indie-pop suss. Mixing Who-like 60s melodies with bugged-out, post punk convulsions. And taking further cues from a wide sonic spectrum, ending-up with something that sounds ear-pleasingly accessible and very modern, but minus the eager-to-please politeness of some 6music orientated post punk . Mastered by Mikey Young of Eddy Current Suppression Ring and Total Control – which seems very apt.
