7-ODDS is a garage /punk band from Athens-Greece.Upbeat, melodic, oldschool tunes, coming straight
out of little private morgues,
drive-ins and other cult sceneries in our minds,in order to be shared with everyone who is determined to refuse to become a stupid robot.
Following numerous gigs in Athens and festivals around Greece, with highlights the support act to The
Sonics (April 2017) and The Godfathers (December 2016), we returned to Matrix Recording Studio to record our debut L.P. ''What Are The Odds?''
Three years after our first E.P. "People Wanna See" (Frontyard Records 2015) - which is sold out - , the
analogue tape caught 12 original songs. These, date from back to the early days of the band up to a couple of months before the sessions and so put to map this period.
Μελωδικές, παλιομοδίτικες, ανεβαστικές μουσικές, κατευθείαν μέσα από drive-ins, μικρά ιδιωτικά
νεκροτομεία και άλλα cult σκηνικά του μυαλού μας, για να τις μοιραστούμε με τον καθένα ο οποίος είναι αποφασισμένος να αρνηθεί την εξέλιξή του σε ένα χαζό ρομπότ.
Στο "What Are The Odds?" μπορεί να διακρίνει κανείς ίσες μεζούρες από τον τρόπο που χώνεψαν την
μακρυμάλλικη hard rock παράδοση σε συνδυασμό με την garage αυθάδεια οι Last Drive, αλλά και psych τάσεις να εναρμονιστούν με την αναβίωση του συγκεκριμενου ήχου που συμβαίνει παγκοσμίως και φυσικά επηρεάζει και την ελληνική σκηνή.

ReplyDeleteIt's already in the shopping cart and will order it soon.
Even if i repeat myself: every day an entry about how admirably hard- working you are. You won't find it a second time and then there's the quality. I told my new old friend Erwin that our tastes are almost 98% the same. It's rare for something like that to happen.
Yesterday i listened to 2 cds from Erwin, both recommended.
Eire Apparent where J. Hendrix takes part and also produced the record as well as V/A Michigan Mayhem ! VOL1.
Wow! Another Greek band. I Listened to many Greek bands two years ago, when I visited Crete. Panos, a Greek friend of mine, gave me some Greek bands. I think that Greece has one of the best Rock scenes in the whole Europe.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Linda. (From Italy)
Wow - another band I never heard before. Thanks for always turning me on to new sounds!
