Sweet & dynamic punk rock and roll in the manner of 60s’ girl groups and Ramones by The Shanghais with members of No Bunny’s backing band, Primitive Hearts and Pookie & The Poodlez. Their music comes Hunx & His Punx to my mind

Amazing heavy psychedelic space rock by White Hills. It has started in New York in the early 2000s, because Dave W. (guitar) was dissatisfied for previous bands and decided to start his own one. In the early recordings he played on every instrument alone, but then has found a fix mate, the bassist Ego Sensation. Dave W. was also discontented with the audience in the US, so they went to tour in Europe, where are roots of their Hawkwind, Pink Faires, PIL, NEU! and Amon Düül II influenced music. The first White Hills album on label released in 2005 by Julian Cope’s Fuck Off & Di Records in England. Since then they have been releasing their works continuously by various labels. And they are a really active band. Their second album (which was  self-released on limited edition CD in 2007) will be re-released in August

Todd Tamanend Clark started out listening to his mother’s Yma Sumac records as a child in the 1950s. Some of his favorites were Bo Diddley and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. Then he heavily influenced by the 60’s psychedelic rock bands like Jimi Hendrix Experience, Doors, Electric Prunes and particularly the United States of America, in consequence of their synthesizers. He has fallen in love with these instruments. Then there were some bands from the end of the 60s sure, but rather he worked with occasionally collaborators. For example Cheetah Chrome (Rocket from The Tombs – David Thomas’ pre-Pere Ubu band, Dead Boys) or W. S. Burroughs. The Aardvark Thru Zymurgy LP was recorded and released in 1977 under the name of New Gods:
