Freak Genes - Iii

Facts Third LP from Freak Genes. Cleverly deranged punk music for freaks, made by freaks. Whether it's in their genes or acquired from years of dysfunctional ideas gone awry playing in bands, this album is a synth in your face. For their third LP, Freak Genes have unearthed 12 more sort-of-pop sort-of-not songs for your ears to enjoy. Making use of a synthesizer found in a skip and a guitar that won't stay in tune, III is garage rock meets Gary Numan. There are some hit tracks, weird stuff, and almost intentional accidents. If you like making functional use of dysfunctional ideas, this is for you - and if you love Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft, The Units, Lodger-era Bowie (1979), 154-style Wire (1979), or The Flying Lizards, then so much the better.
