New split 7” for the Birthday Kicks

Birthday Kicks from Larissa, while rooting decades back into the greek underground, surfaced on record two years ago with a 7-inch single, which was followed one year later by their debut album “Black Echo Trap”, a work that shook the waters of Greek rock. Stepping like an octopus on many genres, Birthday Kicks incorporated many familiar things using a unique alchemy. Many listeners are reminded of Monster Magnet, others of Pixies, others of Velvet Underground, others of Kyuss, others of many other different things. Their sound is none of them and all of them at the same time. Warm and melodic rock ‘n’ roll, at times psychedelic, at times heavier, but always stirred with the magic Birthday Kicks ladle.

Screaming Dead Balloons (from Larissa as well) are a more spontaneous situation. As the three last men standing out from the ashes of the crowded collective previously known as Ten Days Band, and without a certain sound in mind, they started experimenting with some initial ideas. The result has been imprinted in their homonymous album in 2014, and in “Banana Blue” EP in 2015. Lost in the fog of Spacemen 3, they find their way out in a garage way like Roky Erickson did, adding here and there a kraut rock edge; and thus, Screaming Dead Balloons.
