Found Vinyl: Sewer Zombies - Reach Out And...

Aside from the just about perfect 80's name (that also sounds like an excellent Roger Corman movie), Sewer Zombies and their 1985 album "Reach Out And..." blast out of a cannon with an outright barrage of out of tune noise.  It sounds like the illegitimate love child of hardcore punk and No Wave.  That being said, it's bizarre and fantastic.  Let's start with "Never" just to get an idea of where we're at.



Invigorating right?  And here's the strange and unsettling "Executive Execution."



This cacophony of shredding noise is probably more prevalent than it used to be, but Sewer Zombies are one of those bands that prove that with enough gusto and perseverance, anyone can make music.  I leave you with the awesomely titled "They Died with Their Willie Nelson T-Shirts On."
