Description

[Machine Translation] HIGH VOX, a garage punk/rock 'n' roll four-piece energetically active in Tokyo, has finally released its first full-length album "ELECTRIC STANDARD"! The sound is based on the Detroit rock represented by "Iggy and The Stooges", "MC5" and "GRAND FUNK", which should be called their roots, with the spice of good old rock and roll such as "Rolling Stones", "AC/DC" and "DEEP PURPLE". The album is filled with the unique swirling rhythms of "Rolling Stones," "AC/DC," "DEEP PURPLE," and other good old rock 'n' roll spices, backed by roaring twin guitars that churn over the top, and two vocalists who sometimes intertwine and sometimes shout. The balance between mid-tempo songs and blistering speed numbers is exquisite, and the ten raging songs are Japan's answer to the recent rock and roll revival bands from Scandinavia, New Zealand, Australia, and other countries. The guest appearance of popular organist TUCKER (ex.MAGNATONES, JACKIE & THE CEDRICS) on M4 on organ adds to their sound and is another hot topic. With the release of this new album, the band will surely continue to develop their live performance with a view to overseas activities as well as domestic ones. This is a high-energy rock album charged with power that could be the beginning of the next generation of garage punk/rock 'n' roll, or even the next generation of indie rock, and is filled with their (musical) spirit of blackmailing listeners who are getting bored with the grating rock of today. ELECTRIC STANDARD" is a high-energy rock album charged with power that could be the dawn of the next generation of garage punk/rock 'n' roll or the next generation of indie rock!

ELECTRIC STANDARD / HIGH VOX

東京で精力的に活動するガレージパンク/ロックンロール4ピース「HIGH VOX」渾身のファーストフルアルバム『ELECTRIC STANDARD』遂にリリース!★サウンドは彼らのルーツとも言うべき「Iggy and The Stooges」「MC5」「GRAND FUNK」らに代表されるデトロイトロックを軸に「Rolling Stones」「AC/DC」「DEEP PURPLE」などのグッドオールドロックンロールのスパイスをきかせた独特のうねりのあるリズム、その上を所狭しとかき回す轟音ツインギターをバックに2人のボーカルが時には絡みあい、時にはシャウトする唯一無二の暴走ロックンロールで一杯のアルバムに仕上がった。ミドルテンポを中心とした楽曲とぶっちぎりのスピードナンバーのバランスも絶妙であり全曲迫りくる怒濤の全10曲は昨今の北欧、ニュージーランド、オーストラリアなどのロックンロールリバイバルバンド達への日本からの回答と言っても過言ではない。またゲストとしてM4に人気オルガニストTUCKER(ex.MAGNATONES, JACKIE & THE CEDRICS) がオルガンで参加し彼らのサウンドに花を添えている所も話題性の一つ。この作品リリースを機に今後は国内での活動はもちろん、海外での活動をも視野に入れつつ、HIGHなライブを展開して行く事は間違いなし!昨今の耳障りの良いロックに飽き始めているリスナー達に一喝を入れるという彼らの(音楽)スピリットが随所にちりばめられた次世代ガレージパンク/ロックンロールいや次世代インディーロックの幕開けとなりえるパワーをチャージしたハイエナジーロックアルバムこそ、この『ELECTRIC STANDARD』なのだ!
