The Sonics - 1993 - Psycho Sonic


Quality: 4.5 out of 5
Trip-O-Meter: 3 out of 5


I searched a lot for those old sonics vynil of the early recordings of this band, when i finally hit this compilation released back in the 90`s. Ok here`s the deal, a lot of people think that The Sonics were never the same after 1966, their music turned more comercial due to the label company.


So here we have this great compilation of the "Sonics Golden Years" that were 64-67, so this is a wild dose of raw garage mixed with classic rock and roll and some frat rock too. This album contains all their hits and great versions of some 50`s and 60`s covers. The proto punk sound of this band was amazing, highly influenced by The Kingsmen and Little Richard.

This is one of the most important bands in the american garage scene, a very nice quote of all music: "Breaking up in the late '60s (after one ill-fated album attempt to water down their style for national attention), the Sonics continue today to be revered by '60s collectors the world over for their unique brand of rock & roll raunch".

Aca va el compilado lanzado en 1993, el cual no solo tiene los hits mas conocidos de la banda y el material mas pesado tambien, "The Witch", "Psycho", "Boss Boss", "He´s waiting" entre otros. Una particularidad del album es que las mezclas de los temas son las mismas que la epoca en la cual fueron lanzados, sin remasterizaciones ni mezclas extras.

Encontramos 29 temas de pura exitacion veloz y garage con pasajes psicodelicos. Todo el repertorio de los covers se puede escuchar aca tambien, "Good Golly...","Louie Louie", "Money" y "Keep a knoking" como los mas destacados. Aparte, como si fuera una especie de regalito extra-bonus, un par de temas en vivo, los cuales tendran que descubrir escuchando este disco, fácil, la respuesta, el link aca abajo.


Esta es una de las bandas mas que mas influenciaron al resto de las que estaban en la liga americana garagera y resto del mundo tambien. Un sonido particularmente agresivo, rapido y crudo durante los recitales, citada como los tios garageros de los 60`s, una obra completa de estos monstruos.
