Sick Rose

The Profile

Torinese garage-punk band noted for its Farfisa organ, fuzz guitar and strong 60s-inspired songwriting; influential in the 1980s garage/psychedelia revival.

Review notes: the band's sound centers on Rinaldo Doro (Farfisa), Diego Mese (fuzz guitar) and Luca Re (vocals). Area Pirata reissued Blastin'Out...Plus; that release was produced by Dom Mariani. Faces is cited in the review (via Timothy Gassen) among the top garage albums.

A DeBaser review positions Sick Rose as one of the most representative Italian garage-punk bands, praised alongside acts like Fuzztones and Chesterfield Kings. The review highlights the Blastin'Out...Plus reissue (with a career-spanning second CD), key albums such as Faces and Shakin' Street, and signature elements like Farfisa organ and fuzz guitar. Recommended for fans of 60s-inspired garage and power-pop.
