Aussie garage rockers Eddy Current Suppression Ring (catchy name fellas) released this self-titled album where they crank up the amps for eleven songs that rock from start to finish. Well, actually they already released it in 2006 but it’s only now gotten a US release.

This Australian bunch got together at a drunken Christmas party at the record pressing plant where they worked and haven’t looked back since. Singing about the mundane like ice cream might sound dumb to some but when it’s done with an abundance of energy as displayed by Eddy Current Suppression Ring, it shows you something else. It really doesn’t matter what kinda genre you slap on it, or how many different kind of post-somethings you can come up with. Kids just wanna rock the fuck out and Eddy Current Suppression Ring are here to serve them. Chocolate, vanilla, whatever.

Lacking the talent to actually play in a band, Tom decided he would write about bands instead. Turns out his writing skills are mediocre at best as well.
