Shock - Shock! 1970 (2012)


We are very excited to present what it's for us the major discovery in the Spanish Psych- Prog collector scene: a previously unreleased album from 1970 by this obscure Spanish garage- psych band. Until now, Shock were a total mystery. They only released one 45 back at the time (the killer acid- fuzz punker "No se puede ser Superman") and nothing was known about the band...until we tracked them down.


We discovered that prior to their 45 release, they recorded a whole album which was never released. Shock's music is underground garage- psychedelia with crude acid- fuzz guitar, effects, English vocals...think of Agua de Regaliz, early Pan & Regaliz, Cerebrum or even obscure Brazilian bands such as Tobruk but with a more primitive sound. The album features ten songs including the original versions of the two tracks later re- recorded for their only 45: "No se puede ser Superman" (titled here "I'm being mad", it's a different and superior English sung version) and "I want to laugh" (a longer version than the one included on the 45).

    Skoro na tym blogu można znaleźć rzeczy nie do znalezienia, jak "Shock", to może ktoś będzie wiedział coś o zespole Frigate. W 1977 roku wydali płytę "Dreams of the deep" i to wszystko co o nich wiem. Na youtube można znaleźć dwa lub trzy nagrania - ciekawe:

    Albo - czy nie znalazła by się płyta "Nothing free", którą niegdyś nagrała Niki Aukema?
