Description

PROMOTIONAL ONLY means issued by record company in very limited quantity and sent to select industry professionals ONLY for promotional consideration/airplay. Never for sale and highly collectable releases The A-Bombs are yet another excellent Scandinavian rock band who is more than capable of holding their own against some of the regions better known bands like The Hellacopters and Gluecifer. However, unlike these bands, the A-Bombs' sound is much bleaker, metallic and solemn. Their approach relies much more on changes in tempo than over the top bombast and bravado. It probably won't be much of a surprise to learn that they sound strongly influenced by bands like The Stooges and Sonic's Rendezvous Band but the A-Bombs also manage to enter similar territory previously explored by such bands as Joy Division and The New Christs. Their songs may take a couple of listens to fully appreciate but they prove that you don't have to play faster and louder to make intense music. This early promotional tape from 1997 features two tracks that I haven’t seen released anywhere else Track listing. 1. Follow Me Down 2. Under My Skin
