Record/Vinyl + Digital Album
This is another '23 end of the year ALIEN SNATCH! hit record! SEX MEX are three eclectic boys and iconic Rebecca from San Antonio, TX. They on a clear nihilistic mission for the utmost catchiest, ephedrine driven early 80´s organ pop! Whaam! Expect LoFi-synthsupersized gems shredded thru the JAY REATARD bloody vision punk meatgrinder. Dial into the past to pull the RAMONES, DEVO and SUICIDE and rotate it on chainsaw tempo. The pop smoothie of today is SEX MEX dueling Australian counterpart GEE TEE with instant dance smashers and escalating rock and roll parties. Imagine thousands of balloons are exploding and you´re dancing manically with your sweaty hair in a reign of pop rocks. Anyone knows the SPITS girlfriends over there twenty years ago? Would explain a little. They are rough-and-ready, on stage constantly and just came back a US Tour. One-time vinyl edition on various artificial colors.Guess numbers will be documented some day by some people. "23" compiles thirteen originals including two bonus songs of '22 "Electric Chair" and "Better of Dead". Your best-of-list will not stand reductio ad absurdum. More to come in 2024, watch out!

about

greennoiserecords.com (US) Feb 2024 ALIEN SNATCH! (Berlin) are with back with a vengeance! And going back to Texas for material (where they previously picked up HEX DISPENSERS, GOLDEN BOYS, JEWWS, EERIE FAMILY, BAD SPORTS, RADIOACTIVITY...), this longplayer from Sex Mex (San Antonio), their first vinyl release (after a few cassette releases), Rebecca Moore and the San Antonio boys (Nick, Matthew and Nathan), Rebecca singing at the beginning (I assume) before handing the mic to the boys, electric-spark punk rock, stomp that heel into the frayed wire of the old PacMan machine, dimestore wine mixed with heavy doses of bitter cough syrup, amphetamine salts and dandelion glogg, punk rock drenched in synth (and/or organ), a date with your new squeeze at the late-night roller rink, sticky Cracker Jack fingers supergluing fist clenched together, wet kisses sweet with Annie Green Springs, grins topped with the foam from root beer floats spiked with 151 rum and leaving you with a scowl as she skates off with your best friend Russ with the stuffed purple brontosaurus stuffed under her arm, the one you won for her on claw-grab machine, and all you can do is grab a slice from under the heat lamp glowing red and put another quarter in the tabletop PacMan machine and hope for the best...dark fun fast punches of punk rock to the face, going for the gonads, completely coming from the gut but continuing a Texas tradition of punk rock n roll with plenty of pogo pop and droves of low-fi drive...the guitars and everything else pushed together into a tightly knit fuzzy ball of rhythm...as it should be...I'll never tire of junk like this. This is what we need today! (mw)

ox-fanzine.de #173 APR 2024 Junge, die Trefferquote bei ALIEN SNATCH! bleibt einfach verdammt hoch. Synthpunk mit einer primitiven Beatbox, minimalen Melodien und einem ordentlichen Drive kann so verdammt geil sein und immer noch eine Hitdichte abliefern, bei denen die Songs nicht schon wie tausendmal gehört klingen. Natürlich gibt es Ähnlichkeiten und Referenzen wie Jay Reatard, SPITS, NAZI DEATH CAMP, frühe DIGITAL LEATHER und und und, aber die Texaner ziehen das mit einem ganz eigenen Charme durch, der keine Gefangenen macht und auch niemanden zurücklässt. Wer hier nicht mindestens einen Hit findet, der zündet, kann sich auch gleich mit einem Schraubenzieher das Trommelfell durchlöchern, weil irgendwann fehlt der Synthesizer nahezu komplett und wir sind bei den REATARDS angekommen. Klingt wie bei allen Bands von Jay Reatard wie ein First Take ohne viel Nacharbeit und Gefeile an der Songstruktur. „Hit?“ „Hit! Raus damit.“ Und dann immer wieder diese kleinen, fiesen Ohrwürmer. Ich bin hingerissen. (KS)

Okay okay okay. This is amazing. Great catchy, synthy, garagey, punk stuff I loved at first listen. I'm just so mad that it took us this long in history to get to the point of developing a band called Sex Mex. Best band name since Boner City. Alex Ambuehl
