Pikes, The
Something's Going On
First full album of the Berlin 79-Style Power Popper on DIRTY
FACES / TIME FOR ACTION.
Founded in 2007 in Kreuzberg band makes their preferences no
secret - just a glance at the cover is enough to understand what
is on offer here: an unconditional tribute to the glorious era of
the late seventies, when the Modrevival with the emerging punk
scene vital link was received. Again produced by SMAIL (ex-
THE SHOCKS, ZACK ZACK) stylish and authentic, the quartet
presents 12 new songs that could also come from the hidden
treasure troves of large bands of the era, including THE JAM,
UNDER TONES, THE JOLT or THE CHORDS. The driving drums,
groovy, expansive bass runs, Rickenbacker riffs and euphoric,
melodic, often polyphonic vocal lines are a feast for lovers
of the genre. Songs like ,Changing Of The Guard," ,Midnight
Shopping", ,Fine Excuses" and ,Where The Action Is" give rise
to only one thing: clean up in his parka, the Lambretta and from the club. ,Somethings Going On" is the soundtrack to
revolt - but not without style. Punk-Tip!
