The musical year 2023 is on its last feet, with its belly full, ready for some well-deserved downtime, looking back on all the great stuff that was put out this year. But wait, here is Alien Snatch! Records, releasing not one but three (!) worthwhile LPs in the dying days of the year. I am highlighting the the third self-titled LP by KÜKEN from St. Pauli here, but please check out the ones by Sex Mex and Graveyard of the Pacific as well.
KÜKEN III kicks off with a riveting guitar riff that make you sit straight from the get-go. Over the next exhilarating 19 minutes, they unleash an unapologetically fierce punk rock masterpiece that is refreshingly direct. Stripped of any unnecessary elements, each song carries a raw edge while maintaining a sense of melody. This is punk rock done right!
KÜKEN III is out now on Alien Snatch.
