Garage Surf Rock is not exactly what most people think of when I mention South Afrca´s Cape Town , but if I mention The Future Primitives… you know they are shamelessly influenced by West Coast garage surf punk and deliver their songs with enough crunchy in the guitars for sounding too addictive.
I’ve posted stuff from these maniacs in the past, so everyone will enjoy a new release on this occasion…and these tracks are far and away my favorites from the band .
Really is hard to me listen these tracks and no imagining this three piece on a stage plowing through the notes. If you don’t know, then it’s time to learn.

For some time, it’s been apparent that there is an affinity between today’s beat music and the music of the primitive. The recent developments (or should we say decline) of popular music coincided with a highly significant revival of interest in the primitive style among serious music buffs. This brings us to The Future Primitives and their primal experiments in steady monotone rhythmic patterns and contrapuntal structures, writing songs that combine frantic voodoo drums with psyched-out fuzz guitars and haunting lyrics.
All these elements resound throughout the recording on Voodoo Rhythm Records and Groovie Records, kicking off with the caveman drumming of the album’s title track, “Into The Primitive”, to the pop sensibility of “In and Out” and “Tried To Let Go”, while pulsating through you in the psychotic “You Lied”.
