The best parts of punk and sludgy rock seems like an odd pair… you obviously haven’t heard Fangs.
Fangs have spent the last year developing their own sound, recording, playing shows and establishing a reputation within the local scene as a solid rock outfit that knows how to party and make your ears bleed.
In the last couple of months the band have scored support slots with some of Australia’s top bands including The Meanies, Gyroscope, Trial Kennedy, cockfight shootout, Hoss, The Screaming Tribesmen, the Casanovas as well as international bands Them Crooked Vultures (2010) and Russian Circles (2011).
2010 saw the independent release of Fangs debut release, the One Punch / Rain double A side single. In 2011 the band continued to smash it releasing their first album The Junkyard. Veri.live released a 7” vinyl split with The Meanies and Fangs featuring “one punch” this was released on Issue 3 of the Magazine. Fangs were also featured on the fist2face aussie sampler.
Having just finished recording new tracks at Birdland Studios in Melbourne the band are hanging to hit the road with their new single ‘Monsters’ Which will be available on iTunes from the 25th of October, along with the iTunes we will also be releasing a 7” Vinyl and CD available for purchase at the shows and http://fangs.bandcamp.com/
HERE IS WHAT PEOPLE HAVE TO SAY ABOUT FANGS:
Driving beats and rockin bass that draws you in… Frantic and fast Fugazi style strumming to finger picked solos and even some wah thrown in for good ol warm and fuzzy measure… At times they were punked up and furious with short and sharp songs, then they’d throw in some hints of stoner or some dirty swamp blues and that got me really hooked. Fuckin’ awesome solo’s as well!” – Something Sweet To Throw Away
“Their ballsy rock sound drips with attitude and disclaim that fills every inch of the room. Their menacing presence is unmistakable as they throw themselves and their instruments around the stage while a growing crowd of nodding heads builds before them.” – Stephan White / Veri.Live Magazine
“Awesome! Such a good riff, and just as you’re thinking it’s gonna fall into boring predictable rock territory that pre-chorus lifts if out, just in the nick of time.” RAIN – Lindsay McDougall, Triple J
