The Hellacopters & The Flaming Sideburns

Musical Group

A collaboration represented by a split release (White Trash Soul) featuring Sweden's The Hellacopters and Finland's The Flaming Sideburns, known for high-energy garage rock and rock'n'roll.

The Hellacopters are a Swedish rock band; The Flaming Sideburns are a Finnish rock band from Helsinki. The split album White Trash Soul was released in January 2001. The Hellacopters album Payin' The Dues (1997) is referenced in the review.

The review revisits the split album White Trash Soul (January 2001), a three-tracks-each garage-rock release by The Hellacopters and The Flaming Sideburns. It reflects on the recent death of guitarist Robert "Strings" Dahlqvist and the band's reunion history. Musically it praises the Hellacopters' compact, high-energy covers (including a take on Smokey Robinson) and the Flaming Sideburns' gritty rock'n'roll. The reviewer recommends the split as a raw, fast statement in both bands' discographies.

For:Fans of garage rock, collectors of split releases, followers of The Hellacopters and The Flaming Sideburns

 Listening to the track "Get Ready" is enough to support my writerly proclamations: direct, swift, and terrifyingly compact.
