Smoggers en el Ruta 66 # 297 Octubre 2012
Se me caen las lagrimas, toda la vida leyendo esta revista y se hacen eco mi/ nuestro sello.
Eternamente agradecido a Fernando, Alfred y Rafa
NEW REVIEW: RUTA66, Nº297, OCT-2012, pág: 84 (singles club)
"No hay duda que un personaje tan fiable como Oscar solo editará gemología en su nueva imprudencia a modo de sello. Se estrena con los imparables andaluces de poderosa imagen y sonido críptico THE SMOGGERS y su nuevo 7"Shame on you" KOTJ, reproducción excitante de lo que vivimos con el garage-punk revival. Sus mejores emanaciones hasta la fecha, estas tres descargas picapedreras pulen asperezas de sus dos mini-elepés..."

Record Review - The Smoggers
THE SMOGGERS
Shame On You
Kotj 7"
The more "cartoony" garage-punk seems to get a bad rep on these shores, but on the continental mainland is rightly held in more respect. After all, if you’re going to make fuzz-drenched rock ’n’ roll what would be the point in taking yourself too seriously? These four adolescent minds hail from Andalusia are committed vinyl lovers and this single, on a new label set up by well-respected Spanish music journalist Óscar García, follows two recent 10” albums.
The title track is your typical neo-garage organ heavy fuzz blaster played at 100 mph. A simple chord progression and chorus chant, elevated by some searing lead guitar playing. ‘It's Just Not The Same’ is perhaps my favourite of the three tracks on offer - it has enough of the screwed-up-and-pissed-off snotness of The Gories, The Gruesomes or The Trashbones to please. Turns out to be a cover of ’80s Texan band The Delinquents. Excellent choice! ‘Jump Inside’ meanwhile doesn't pretend to have a melody: instead it’s a drum-heavy list of complaints and completely punk rock in spirit and execution.
These guys are playing all the garage festivals there are, so do go pogo to them soon and buy the single while you’re there!
