The Control Freaks - Gonna Be A Riot

  


  Something trashy and lots of fun today as The Control Freaks (https://www.facebook.com/ControlFreaksSF) return with an outrider for their highly anticipated 3rd album, Get Some Help. 

  The latest excellent project from the legendary Greg Lowery (Rip Off Records, Supercharger, The Rip Offs, Zodiac Killers etc), The Control Freaks hail from San Francisco and play vibrant, simplistic but extremely moresome garage punk. Imagine 50's b-movie sci fi flicks filmed in technicolour with a low budget but plenty of juvenile talent and enthusiasm and you'll hopefully get the vibe given off by these guys.


  As is becoming a regular occurrence, bassist/vocalist Greg's been changing the line up so this time around female vocals (and guitar) come courtesy of Amy Munoz whilst Rob Liebsch takes over on drums). Rob Vastano remains on guitar. The album's out on 30th September on vinyl, cd & digital and you can pre order it here :  https://thecontrolfreaksband.bandcamp.com/album/get-some-help-2


  With a video that reminds me a little of the cover to the Rip Offs' classic Got A Record album, this is Gonna Be A Riot...
