The Pyramids - Birth/speed/Merging - VINYL LP

SHARP/SHOCK is your new soundtrack to living in a modern world. Real, with an unwavering passion in a time of immeasurable doubt and uncertainty. 'SHARP/SHOCK' couldn't be more of an accurate description of how this band came out of the gates with their explosive and refreshing first record Unlearn Everything. This power-punk trio that started as a purely casual project rapidly picked up speed with their unique and instantly memorable songs laced with nostalgia and angst. Singer/guitarist Davey Warsop (BEAT UNION, SUEDEHEAD) and bassist/vocalist Dan Smith (THE DEAR & DEPARTED; world-renowned tattoo artist) are both UK exports but didn't cross paths until they were both transplanted to California. Jared Shavelson (THE HOPE CONSPIRACY, PAINT IT BLACK), a jazztrained drummer hailing from Jersey, would end up completing this trio perfectly. Despite their dissimilar geographical beginnings, they quickly realized they were all very much from the same place. With early support and approval from legendary bands such as THE DESCENDENTS, T.S.O.L. and THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN, it wasn't long before SHARP/SHOCK's path was forged-their energy and passion was undeniable. After only a short year of touring (alongside INTERRUPTERS, BRONX, CULTURE ABUSE, and AGAINST ME!), the next chapter is looking to be the band's most exciting yet. May 25th will see the highly anticipated of their second record Youth Club, which, like the first, is a powerful barrage of melody and malice. From the cutting reality and deeply analytical lyrics of 'Nuclear Family,' to the abrasive and untreated honesty addressing repressive youth culture in 'Bad Lad,' SHARP/SHOCK are exactly what you would expect from musicians who were born and bred on THE JAM, STIFF LITTLE FINGERS, and subculture staples, but they've still got plenty of surprises in store. The album is the sound of a trio finding their footing; th

Limited turquoise colored vinyl LP pressing. A gonzo crew of shaved-headed, sax-blowing, reverb-stomping maniacs, the fivesome tore it up on the stages of unsuspecting West Coast teen haunts and hit the big screen via the 1964 B-Movie InchBikini Beach.Inch The album features InchPenetration,Inch one of the undisputed all-time surf cornerstones! Back in the 1960s, when surf music was burning up and down the beaches of the Southern California coastline, it was often a gimmick that made one band stand out from the others. The Pyramids simply had great surf music... and bald heads. Their big hit, InchPenetration,Inch stayed in the top ten (Billboard) for 13 weeks reaching as high as #4 nationally. Only The Beatles kept the song from going higher. The Pyramids appeared on American Bandstand (twice), The Bob Eubanks Show, Shebang, Dave Hull's Hullabaloo, and The Lloyd Thaxton Show. The band went on to record a handful of killer singles and one album before splitting up in 1965. Now back in print after 25 years, the Pyramids are back in action and ready to rock!
