STA: lead vocals-drums
I´m almost sure this is the first lo-fi rock/garage punk from Greece posted by me . The Social End Products is an Athens four pieces who breathe the best of what garage, early psychodelia , and power acid punk have to offer.
I was first made knowing about the band when his drummer and lead vocal Sta showed me the video which is below , which has converted on one of my favorite song lately .
Frontman Sta Stea is also matching in his tastes with Manos since around 90´s , and when were joined with Dimitris and Themos on 2009 they formed this team whose name I like to think took from one of my favorite songs of New Zealand 60´s punk band The Blue Star.
They has a keen ability for delivering sharp garage hooks, but the overall feel here is much psych, and it features Sta voice which for times begs comparisons to younger Iggy .
Here found a bit Stooges , a bit 13th Floor, and a bit Nerves, all super addictive, a garage walloping .
Unlike other bands, it was I who asked them send to me their first effort ” Ego Trip”, released through FUZZOVERDOSE RECORDS their own label and which they kindly sent me, so I don´t want to go out without giving thanks a lot to drummer Sta Stea and his band for his thumb up for I can share the record for free, anyway if you want a copy of the vinyl you can do It following the links at foot this page…
