MICKEY 12" / STRANGE ATTRACTOR 7" / WOMEN LP

Women - No Reasons LP
Philadelphia's Women return with their first LP. This follows up their debut 7" that they released back in 2008. No Reasons blasts through 11 tracks, in only 20 minutes. Just as aggressive as Women's first release, yet more melodic at the same time. A perfect blend of garage punk and 80's hardcore. A must have for anyone's collection. Co-released between FDH and Resurrection Records. Limited to only 500 copies, each copy with a free download code for the album with a extra 2 tracks. Get it while it lasts! FDH-102


Strange Attractor - Just looking 7"
Just looking for another distraction? Check this out. Four new snotty garage punk rockers as a follow up to the German releases on P.Trash & Red Lounge. Three originals and a Nipple Errectors cover . More yelling, more hooks, and the lyrics keep getting more retarded. Night Bangers, Nite Sticks, 3rd AD's and bangin' chicks.Limited to 500 copies. FDH-103


Mickey - 12"EP
As long as there's still hips to shake and asses to move, Mickey will be there to rub it in deep and smother your world with their ineffable concoction of punk brilliance. The most promising new Chicago pop band since the Smith Westerns, these five individual odd fellows have unearthed the primal lunacy and indescribable glam irresistibility that has turned anyone who's seen them into blathering idiots, ready to swallow every stray flung drop of slimy sweat dripping from their guitar necks. After last year's impeccable debut 7" on HoZac and their devastating trip through the wilderness of South by Southwest's seedy underbelly, they turned enough heads and converted so many people, that I finally felt like it wasn't just us that was crazy for their inebriated, yet exasperatingly unique undulating glitter-pop formula.

Just like when GG Allin covered The Ohio Express' "Up Against The Wall" during his early pop fascination period, it's the truly unorthodox filtration of influences that generates unbelievable results like these, and Mickey does it all with the trashy finesse of a sanitation worker at an art gallery. Crushing boring predictability and shoving raw sewage into a powerful pop-art format that sends chills down the spine and makes it fun for the whole family.

This week, FDH Records unleashes the Mickey 12" EP, featuring six serrated songs that will etch their name even deeper into your brain, causing eyeballs to pop and eardrums to throb simultaneously for the duration of each side, with already-classic tracks from their live set such as the rollicking "Space Case" and the very well possibly FU2-inspired "Electric Dreams," both of which have sent many a crowd into a mouth-foaming frenzy on many an occasion. Bands like Mickey seem to only happen when the planets of the universe align a certain way, but as their songs and overall persona continue to build to massively impressive levels, there's really no telling how far they can go, but we can only stand back and watch in awe as they level everything in their path. First pressing with a limited edition die cut LP cover limited to 500 copies (die cut cover will only be on the first pressing edition). FDH-104
