Los Perdidos’ surf-rock hews closer to early rock instrumentalists like Link Wray, Duane Eddy and The Shadows, leaning more on Morricone widescreen than rapid-fire Dick Dale tremolo picking, brief vignettes unfolding in cascading melodies predicated on casual insouciance rather than amphetamine-rush energy.

Dreiberg's two-piece sound has shades of Foo Fighters, Alkaline trio, and Finch with versatility to swing from sweet melodies to intense, heavy anthems. Long story short, Dreiberg is the little band with a big sound you won't soon forget.

If there was ever a polar opposite of Goth/Dark-Wave it would be the New York Disco Villains. Imagine if the B-52’s survived solely on a consistent diet of cheesy Troma films. With their carnivalesque keyboards, effects-soaked guitars, bizarre lyrics and raucous performances, the Villains have the campy woozy feel of an Ed Wood film soundtracked by They Might Be Giants.

Los Perdidos’ surf-rock hews closer to early rock instrumentalists like Link Wray, Duane Eddy and The Shadows, leaning more on Morricone widescreen than rapid-fire Dick Dale tremolo picking, brief vignettes unfolding in cascading melodies predicated on casual insouciance rather than amphetamine-rush energy.
There’s plenty of reverb coming from Andy Collins’ Fender amp, sure, but his hollowbody Gretsch — a favorite instrument of Eddy’s — lends his tone a hefty, spaghetti-western twang, balancing Byron Chitty’s active basslines and Adam Cox’s busy, fluid drumming.
Like The Shadows — or Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet — Los Perdidos’ momentum is subtle but strong, and totally enveloping. It still evokes a ride on the Pacific Coast Highway, but it trades top-down summer fun for the ghostly chill of moonlight reflecting off the ocean. - Patrick Wall

Metallic Punk in the mid-80s style of Beyond Possession and the Boneless Ones, except that rather than skateboarding or Tel Tale Heart, the Mutants sing about loss: loss of friends (to death and growing up), loss of trust, loss of Apollo 19. They do sing about beer, though: one particularly good section goes," used to be this time of year we'd hang out and drink beer/ but now I'm drunk by myself throwing up in the wishing well." I like that wishing well part. Unfortunately, earlier in the same song is the line, "used to be this time of year we'd cut the rug like a couple of deer" which is just sick and wrong. - Cuss Baxter (LEM)

The Liberal Media Jeremy retained his TS title in not one but two matches! He will be defending his title once again, but against who? Does JJ really have it out for the Liberal Media or is it just fake news? Also Wilbur the Art Barbarian will defend his Art Bar title in an "Upside down race" match against Mongoose McNasty! Finally, we will be naming the number one contender for the NUTS Championship at GAME OVER by the end of the night. This is one checkpoint you cannot miss!
