Men & Volts

Sometime companions with About half Japanese, Guys & Volts early within their profession pursued organic indie noise much like About half Jap, but with occasional glimpses of melodic pop more commensurate with ’60s root base rockers just like the Music group as well as the Grateful Deceased. Shaped by David Greenberger, also the publisher and editor from the fanzine Duplex Globe, the Boston-based group debuted using a bizarre record called Tempo & Blues, which duplicated aspect one’s tunes for the turn. After 1983’s Hootersville, Guys & Volts well developed straight down the experimentalism and concentrated rather on rootsy folk for Tramps in Bloom. The music group shifted to Shimmy-Disc following a three-year lack, and came back with two Kramer-produced produces, The Mule and Stay static in Touch. Their 5th record, Cheer Up, made an appearance on 50 Skidillion W, also the house of Fifty percent Japanese and Moe Tucker.
