The Gruesomes - Nowhere
Among my favorites, delirium
If you don't feel like it… trust the Reverend who NEVER misses
With their exaggerated hairdos and their trashy morbidity, the Gruesomes were to Canada what the Gravedigger V were to the Californian garage scene: subtly debauched teenagers attracted by an unhealthy passion for a sixties grime imaginary they would never renounce, not even while the entire neogarage scene was collapsing around them. Gruesomology is therefore, first and foremost, a tribute to their consistency but also provides a comprehensive snapshot of their historical period, from their participation in It Came from Canada to the Live in Hell! of 1989, stuff that each of you should make sure to have and, above all, understand.
They were the technical zero.
Pure teenage exuberance drowned in visceral love for the most vehement garage punk and the most battered R 'n B.
They were the passion that became a living thing and grabbed you by the throat.
25 pearls of wisdom, no bullshit.
