And yet another excellent debut album. This time by the leading german purveyors of modern garage-punk, THE HIDDEN CHARMS. The band that includes DEAN DIRG drummer Boerge has learned their lessons well, sounding like they've found their own little alcove right between the musical trademarks of labels like DIRTNAP, IN THE RED and RIP OFF. Raw, fast and hysteric they bait through the 14 tracks of this album, leaving a trail of pain and destruction behind. In just 15 minutes you'll get an extensive introduction to today's insane world of punk-rock and you even get to know all the cheesy details, those the SPITS, the CLONE DEFECTS and the REAL LOSERS were to scared to tell. The first pressing is on heavy vinyl and there also is an extravagant hand sprayed Hidden Charms mask included! Go destroy, buddies!
