THE MINNESOTA VOODOO MEN formed in 1998 in Tachikawa near Fussa, the capital of garage rock/group sound in Japan. They have since not only developed a unique and absolutely fantastic lofi-garage-surf-beat-sound but also built their infamous reputation as mindblowing live-act while touring throughout Japan as well as all over Europe displaying crazy yet stylish Japanese 'Merseybeatle' Ringo, wild drummer Pete and frantic guitarist Fabian playing his guitar virtuosically while hanging upside-down from the ceiling. After their several first releases on Japanese labels and their LPs ('s/t' and 'Shake Your Mind') and lastly their 45 ('Don't Come Around') on Soundflat Records, this brand new 7' 'Voodoo Stomp' is their first release since 2012 and it was definitely worth the wait! The title-song 'Voodoo Stomp' is an extremely catchy, cool 60's-beat-tune while the B-side is a live-recording of 'Iikimochi', a slightly calmer ballad. Both songs have Japanese lyrics and of course they have that raw Voodoomen-sound that we all love, containing Ringo's rough voice, a wild guitar and a stomping beat. Finally here it is: a new piece of hit-vinyl by our favourite Japanese Garage/Beat/Surf'n'Rolltrio!!
