Sick Fizz self-describe as “acid flavoured bubblegum,” and while I can’t speak from personal experience, the band’s sound sure is as weird and trippy as it is sweet and sticky. The latest Sick Fizz LP The Future Is The Pits has got me wondering if it is a lost ‘70’s side project by Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss produced by Jerry Kasenetz and Jeff Katz.
But no, this animated take on glamstomp’n’roll comes out of Bathurst, Australia and is created by three musicians that go by the comic book names Foxy Von Fizz, Fa La Fizz and Dave Javu. Clearly, they do not take themselves too seriously, but they sure know how to put the fun in rock’n’roll. If you’re are looking for a good time and if you like your bubblegum with balls, ask for Sick Fizz at your local record dealer.
The Future Is The Pits is the Sick Fizz’s second LP. It is out now on Dead Beat Records.
