v/a- BUZZSAW JOINT CUT 8: Johnny Alpha and Carl Combover LP
Limited edition of 500 copies on violet colour vinyl.
Buzzsaw Joint was born of a club offering Londoners the chance to revel in the sounds of good ol’ trashy rock’n’roll in all its vintage vinyl forms. Club top-cat, Fritz, then took the primitive Buzzsaw sounds online with a series of savage Mixcloud mixes created by record fiends from all over the globe. Now, the high-octane energy of Buzzsaw Joint has manifested into the physical form with a run of compilations. Get your ears around the wild’n’weird sounds of the extraordinary and inimitable Buzzsaw Joint!
Cut 8 introduces Johnny Alpha and Carl Combover, purveyors of all things sleazy, greasy and raw. When deliquent-at-large Carl isn’t pounding drums, he’s running the Go-Go Cage, Liverpool’s most raucous `60s night. Johnny’s Killer Diller radio show, broadcast from a bunker in Wigan, unearthed so many exclusive 45s, it defined a genre. For years this pair have slung records at Europe’s coolest clubs and fuzziest festivals. Now they’ve stewed up a heady mix with pungent notes of tonic wine and spiced rum. Slurp!
