Brand new EP from UK's legendary psychobilly band THE HANGMEN. They have been released on great labels like Crazy Love Records and Tombstone Records, and have toured extensively through Europe, USA and Canada sharing stages with The Damned, UK Subs, Demented Are Go and Nekromantix etc.

On this record you will hear sounds of psychobilly, punk rock and rock 'n' roll at all once. With a bonus live track "Play With Fire" taken from their latest live album PLAY DEAD (Tombstone Records - TOMBCD 2062)

Even the engineer described the recordings as 'Punkabilly with the Sex Pistols in mind' and "The Curse" as one of the nastiest songs he has ever heard in his life!! Listen to the studio getting trashed at the end of "Let There Be Drums". Overhead heating, trash cans and a TV (the last big boom!) were demolished in just a few seconds as the band got a little carried away right at the end.

First pressing of the EP is available on white vinyl while supplies last.

Rock 'n' Roll Freakshow is by far the greatest THE HANGMEN release to date. Don't miss out!

Dark, moody and highly addictive, The Hangmen's 'Rock 'n' Roll Freakshow' is a circus full of buzzsaw guitars, rockabilly cool and glacial lyrics, making this four tracker all killer.

Das neue Lebenszeichen von THE HANGMEN hat den Namen "Rock'n'Roll Freakshow" (Jet13 Records) und passt natürlich. Würde aber auch zu jeder anderen Band passen, die einen irren Mix aus Psychobilly, Rock'n'Roll und Punkrock hinlegt. THE HANGMEN gibt es schon lange, über einen Supportstatus sind sie aber nie hinaus gekommen. Im Rahmen des US-amerikanischen Psychobilly-Hypes kommen auch solche Bands wieder aus dem Untergrund gekrochen. Haupttracks sind die neuen Songs "The curse" und "Firewalker", ein Instrumental-Song und als vierter ein Live-Stück von ihrer Live-CD. Das Trio um Loz Firewalker gibt hier alles und es ist nicht übertrieben. Zum Instrumentalstück "Let there be drums" soll diversen Gegenständen ihr letztes Stündlein gehabt haben. So auch ein Fernseher. Auch nicht neu, aber zeigt den Ernst, den THE HANGMEN an den Tag legen wollen. Sänger Loz war mir mit seiner natürlich rau klingenden Stimme immer sehr sympathisch. Diese EP ist ein guter Neuanfang und ich bin gespannt auf den angekündigten, neuen Longplayer. Ob die hier gezeigte Kreativität auch für ein ganzes Album reicht, wird sich zeigen.

Cultcuts
The latest by long-running British psychobilly outfit THE HANGMEN is a four song seven inch pressed on ghostly white vinyl release. Side A kicks off with "The Curse," a frigging stomp of a tune. The shenanigans don't stop until the final cut, a smoking and spooky live version of THE ROLLING STONES' "Play With Fire." I think my favorite track, though, is the cover of "Let There Be Drums." Originally it was a jazzy lounge tune by Cozy Cole, but here in these sick bastards' hands, it becomes an apocalyptic rock and roll instrumental. This trio has a lot going for them, from their irresistible sick sense of humor to their unique sound that combines early rock and roll and prime CRAMPS-esque psychobilly mixed with a good chunk of punk. This EP presents THE HANGMEN at their finest.

The second release from London based Jet 13 records is low down voodoo sleazebeat punkabilly from a band with a reputation for randomly appearing as demonic crazed clowns. Side A offerings "The Curse" and "Firewalker" stalk their way around the turntable in a blaze of twangy guitar, brylcreem and ritual sacrifice. Side B kicks in with the mighty "Let There Be Drums", which features tribal voodoo beats, surf guitar, and culminates with the sound of the band destroying everything they could find in the studio including overhead heating, trash cans, and yes, even the obligatory TV set. The final nail in the coffin is a live track "Play With Fire" which is pretty awesome. Recommended for rock n' roll zombies, B-movie horror freaks, and corpses with quiffs everywhere.
