Penthouse

Located in Camden, London, England, Penthouse are purveyors of noisy and filthy psycho-blues music which has gained them comparisons using the Jesus Lizard as well as the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Shaped by Charlie Finke (vocals), John Totally free (acoustic guitar), Tim Cedar (drums) and Graeme Flynn (bass), the music group 1st burst onto the music picture with 1995’s limited-edition debut solitary, ‘Ript N’ Content’. Their debut recording for the 3rd party Globe Domination label was made by Teo Miller (Placebo). On the casual slower track, such as for example ‘Voyeur’s Blues’ and ‘A Deviant Soiree’, their audio was similar to the ‘swamp-blues’ of P.J. Harvey’s To ENABLE YOU TO GET My Love. It had been the gloriously ramshackle ‘Street Allergy’ and lustful ‘Encounter Down’ that established the tone from the record, however, recording the music group’s brutally primal rock and roll ‘n’ move at its greatest. A legal struggle with the guys’s magazine from the same name resulted in the band having to improve their name to 50 A GREAT DEAL OF Black Terror in the us. They also transferred to Beggars Banquet Information following demise of Globe Domination. A fresh single, ‘Valley FROM THE Sows’, made an appearance in November 1998, and a fresh record the following calendar year. The achievement of rock and roll ‘n’ move revivalists the Strokes as well as the Hives in the brand new millennium didn’t drag Penthouse from their resolutely cult position, despite the discharge of the wonderful Unt.
