brand new 5 song vinyl 10″ EP. First three songs are puristic 79´style Mod/ PowerPop, how it should sound like today. Followed by splendid The Kinks influenced smasher ” To A Reason”, and closed with “Don’t Want You Around”, a R&B tinged tune in the vein of early Dr. Feelgood in their Milk and Alcohol days. Written and recorded during some hot summer nights in the streets of Moscow.

New band from Moscow, consisting of four lads from the cities Mod & music scene. Members played by THE VICE, THE PRETTY GREEN, STONE COLD BOYS and of course Sasha from the WTC/ THE RIOTS.
Sasha´s first music cuts turned up in 2007 as the WHITE TRAINERS COMMUNITY with one full length album and a few singles and EP´s. Soon they called it a day, but were seen again on stage early 2010. But from now on as THE RIOTS! Released again one album and a goodly amount of singles & EP´s. Expanded the storm by touring Europe three times, but failed due to not issued visas by an UK tour in 2013 and another Europe tour in 2015. Both tours had to be cancelled. Currently THE RIOTS are in a sleeping process.
Talking about contemporaries of the WTC/ THE RIOTS... LONG TALL SHORTY around 40 years ago could hit the mark!?

It should have been January 2009 where i had found Tony and John on MySpace. We started a little chat and they told me about the new LONG TALL SHORTY line-up and that they would love to play in Germany. I got in touch with Kidnap from the NOT AMUSED in Berlin and ask if he could arrange something there. He surely did and so it happened that LONG TALL SHORTY and THE NOT AMUSED played on 30th Mai 2009 in Berlin at the Schokoladen. The venue was sold out and the crowd went crazy. I was fully blown away… LONG TALL SHORTY still sounded like a classical three piece band of 16 years old kids: maximum noise & overwhelming enthusiasm, high energy, rough and just doing it for having fun.
After the gig we talked about some new recordings. They suggested a 7“ single and I ask for an LP. Tony replied: "ok, thats fantastic, then I will write some more songs for an album."
I was happy and proud like a dog that he will give me the possibility to release something from his legendary band on my quite new and little label.
Not even 4 weeks later Tony wrote me that he have booked a recording studio in Brighton for next week. They recorded 15 songs live in just one day. The Giffer sound was put on tape and released on 8th October 2009.
What followed was the best thing you can get: expect nothing and get quite everything. Gig after gig for the following couple of years.
I remember well that Mark & Lesley Bailey went over to see them in Hamburg where it was hard for me to keep the freezer filled with beer at the backstage room 😉 But also Albert Cummings and his wife who went to see them in Cologne.
Just nine month later we released in June 2010 the 2nd album. Followed by the 3rd album in 2018.
Whenever i had ask him for new recordings or if he could come over all the long way to play some gigs he said: "yes, I'd love to do it if there's any interest."
This passion to be creative, being different and experimental was awesome. This genuine modesty and kindness was easily lovely.
In 2017 we did the last 11 days tour in Germany. Derwent played the drums, who had given the old classics an even more authentic sound, which had given Tony a lot of fun.
After the gig in Essen the guy from the club wanted to close but Tony was disappeared in the middle of the night. John called him and Tony said he is running around the city to find a kebab store who is still open. So John and I had to wait outside the club and enjoyed a bottle of Jägermeister which we got the day before in Leipzig till he went back.
As we talked about the name for the last single he suggested to call it „Take it Easy“ because 2020 was a hard year for so many all over the world.
Last time i have seen Tony was at the release gig for the 3rd album in August 2018 at the Prince Albert, Brighton. I really thought I will see him again as soon this pandemic is over.
A lovely guy, who always had time for people and loved life and his music. A sad loss.
My love and respect go out to his family.
Cheers Mr. Perfect and thanks for everything! Will see you again somewhere else in a kebab store or at a donkey farm!!
Just a couple of weeks ago Tony did two fantastic radio interviews with Eddie Pillar on his Modcast.
If anyone is interested to listen the show you can find both links here.

time for some new words!
The latest releases by THE JAYBIRDS, RAF Mod band and the REFLECTORS got splendid kudos in several magazines. The Reflectors LP was sold out only one day after the release date and is described my many as best PowerPop album in years.

THE TRANCE - farewell to a world untorn LP is reviewed by Mike Korbik from Twang! Records / Guitars Galore:
"…the songwriting is with no doubt rooted in the Flower Power era of the year 1967 with characteristics of bands like TOMORROW, ART, SMALL FACES, sometimes also THE WHO, THE ANIMALS or SPENCER DAVIS GROUP. On the other hand, the style and arrangements shows, that they are also kids from the revival of the 80´s. Bands like THE PRISONERS, MAKIN`TIME and not least THE VOGUE from Vienna have left their mark on the sound of this album. The LP contains all songs they had ever recorded, including the so far unreleased song „The Ride“ and a slight rougher demo version of „Magic Sphere“. The sequence of the songs here is different as on the CD from 1998. It starts with „Officer Pearson“, an unique Mod Psych Pop song, which bring you straight to the SciFi worlds of the seventies. Beside of strong R&B Mod Beat tracks there are consequently those trips into psychedelic dreams and fantasy worlds, without given up to much the down-to-earth attitude. The LP is limited to 200 copies, 50 of them in transparent vinyl, 50 in marbled vinyl and 100 on black wax.
The best re-issue of the year!"

"... Jam Division ..."
"... they surprise again with their unique and varied sound of Pop Punk and 79er Mod Revival, with an overlying black cloud of Post-punk melancholy and French Cold Wave darkness..."
"... but the framework is still Powerpop or Mod Revival- Sound from bands as Long Tall Shorty, The Chords, Purple Hearts or early The Jam... "
"... with this exceptional melange of two from Punk born and influenced music genres, from the late 70´s and early 80´s, they are pretty unique in the current scene... "
