Thee Seizures are an “anti-fascist acid punk” duo from Lisbon, Portugal, who needed just two wild days to cut their debut album Introducing… (they already shared the eight tracks digitally themselves last November, but have since signed with Groovie Records, who fired up the vinyl press and threw in alternative cover art, so we can safely consider this a new release). The record takes us us from The 13th Floor—it must be a hell of a party there—to My Mind, a fascinating trip.

It’s all grooving organ grind and drum thunder; proving guitars are superfluous when the energy is this feral. Equal parts garage punk grit and psychedelic rock swirl, the two musicians lure the ghost of the 1960s into something raw, sweaty, and out of step with the trends yet defiantly present. It’s chaotic, rebellious, and impossible to ignore, exactly how rock ‘n’ roll should feel right now.

Introducing Thee Seizures—recorded and mixed by Ulpiano Capalbo—is out digitally and on vinyl LP through Groovie Records. Featuring Alex Aspin (organ) and André Martins (drums).
