BRUCE’S RECOMMENDATION OF BANDCAMP MUSIC
Music: “Satan Built My Hotrod”
EP: ATOMIC DRAG EP
Artist: ATOMIC DRAG
Artist Location: Ballymoney, Northern Ireland, UK
Info: “Instrumental Surf Punk Garage Rock from the North Coast of Northern Ireland.”
“Written, played, recorded and mixed by Atomic Drag March – June ’21, except ‘Cecilia Ann,’ written by The Surftones.”
“Atomic Drag is Lee McDaid. Old enough to know better but dumb enough to do it anyway, his influences include, but are not limited to, Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet, Big Black (Big Black at their very core were a surf band, a hill he’s willing to die on) Dead Kennedys, Pixies and The Bomboras. The debut self-titled EP contains 3 original tracks of horror tinged, Lynchian dark surf punk rock and a gonzoid cover of The Surftones classic ‘Cecilia Ann’ (famously covered by the Pixies, but you knew that).”
“Fuzzy Cracklins Fuzzy grew up in So Cal and I never lost my love for surf music. Atomic Drag adds in a touch of horror that sets it apart from the beach crowd. Fuzzy’s full review is at www.fuzzycracklins.com/2021/08/atomic-drag.html Favorite track: ‘Atomic Undead.’”
Price: £1 (GBP) for track; £3.50 (GBP) for four-track EP
