Last Killers

"….i Last Killers sono certamente da includere nello zoccolo duro del garage rock italiano, una realtà musicale che è presente nella penisola da oltre quarant'anni, e che più che vivere un momento di semplice revival sta aggiungendo verve, tecnica e colore a quello che nei 60's era il più delle volte semplice traduzione ed esportazione del prodotto straniero. …."



"For someone who's 16years old today, or for someone who wants to
feel like "SIXTEEN AGAIN",it makes no difference if a record is recorded in 1965 or 1981 or 2016.
NO!!! garage rock is not a historical phenomenon. It's an attitude,a mindset that encapsulates the essence of rock'n'roll. The passion,the anger,the insecurity,the frenzy.
But the actual music is not about the past, but of things yet to come.
There will always be new 16-years-olds who weren't born to work,there will always be new generations who believe it's become necessary to reinvent the wheel all over again.
then suddenly find a music that could be played over and over again,louder and louder, and which made me so intoxicated that i could stand in front of the stereo filled with convinction that i could do whatever i wanted
that's a very special experience.



It was a reminder - it is a reminder -
of why i once fell in love with rock 'n' roll."



Antes de ello los teloneros Last Killers dieron otro enorme concierto de garage rock. Musicalmente también están influenciados por el punk Mucha actitud, covers míticos de garage rock o punk (gran versión de los Undertones, Teenage Kicks) y un interesante teclado en varios de los temas. Me sorpendieron muy gratamente los italianos. Al terminar el concierto me agencié su album 3 Bombs Over Berlin que me firmaron, muy buen disco, en Italia también hay buen rock and roll! Charlé con ellos, mejor dicho lo hizo mi amigo Jabi que habla italiano y nos parecieron muy buena gente. Nos dijeron que había sido el mejor show de la gira y les encantó el Helldorado, algo que no me extraña, ya que es la mejor sala de todo el territorio. Tocaron unos 50 mins y fue una pena que llegamos tarde y nos perdimos el inicio.
