The Electric Mess- You've Become A Witch



In the words of Simels The Stupendous, over at the always-amazing POWER POP, "As you know, we like to occasionally feature something recorded in this century."

Here is what is currently my favorite thing ever...today. The Electric Mess have been tearing it up in NYC, bashing out some of the most exciting garage and psych music I've heard in years. What I love most about The Mess is that they can play. It may have been a novelty for those no- hit wonders back in the 60s to barely form the 2 and 3 chords needed to grind out a stomper. But these guys can play.

This video is a blast and the single is from their new record, "The Electric Mess," which I think you should buy RIGHT HERE.

Good video! That's definitely a song for the Halloween playlist.

Fantastic! They've managed to invoke Hammer horror movies and freakbeat/psych. some of my favorite things.

Though I think what they specifically remind me of are the Lyres, possibly the best freakbeat revivalists ever.
