Redd Kross – Beyond the Door (Merge
Redd Kross - Beyond the Door
Records)
Release Date: Out Now
Californian power-pop outfit Redd
Kross were one of the first bands I got to review back in the 90s when I
started this whole writing about music ‘thing’ and I’ve loved them ever since
so colour me excited to get a copy of their new release. ‘Beyond the Door’ is the
title track of their forthcoming new album and it packs one hell of a punch
from the outset. A rasping bass line, punchy drums and a gang chorus of ‘yeah,
yeah, yeahs’ signal the beginning and soon Redd Kross are off, swaggering
across the dancefloor with their eyes locked on yours and a mischievous smile
playing on their lips. The honky-tonk piano is somewhere between T-Rex and Bowie
while the general vibe and energy is pure glam-punk-pop smothered in sunshine
and doused in 70s cocktails. Glorious stuff.
