British "hooligan rockers" The Bullets" are one band that many people believe could be the break out rockabilly act of the year.I don't know about that but they are pretty damn good and having your debut album on Western Star doesn't hurt either.What they play is "wild rockabilly" but it also is modern and I mean that in a good way. Which brings us to the debut: "Sons Of The Gun" diffidently lives up to the praise that has been thrown at these kats This puppy rocks in with 14 kool and original tracks that prove this is not your average billy band. You could say this is rockabilly/ rock n roll that busts out the boogie.Highlights include:"I Don't Wanna","She's So Sleazy,"Son Of A Gun" and the single "Motorhead Shelly".

The Flattrakkers - Gettin' Dirty 2013
The Flattrakkers are one of those bands that are just flat out kool.These Australian kats have been dishin' out revved up rockabilly since 2004. With 3 albums of hard edge rockabilly full of songs about hotrods, flat track racing ,speedway ,chicks,drinking and dirt trackin' what's not to like.Now with their 4th album " Gettin' Dirty" the band shakes things up a bit. Sliding in with 13 original tracks that for the most are what you would expect from these guys .We also get a couple of tracks that lean more to traditional rockabilly and even a country infused track( Don't Shut the Bar). Highlights include: "Derby Girl","Big Shake Up","Real Mean Machine and " 24 Hours a Day".

Big Surf - Probability Wave 2012
Hailing from that hotbed of surf music Minneapolis, Minnesota comes the way kool surf band Big Surf.Since 2001 these board riders have been laying down "adventurous surf" in fine tiki style. With a couple of albums under their belt some consider them one of America's better surf bands. Probability Wave the band's 3rd release is an interesting and at times eclectic ride that is very enjoyable. Riding in with a mix of 14 originals and covers that range from traditional, lounge ,Hawaiian to pure surf rock and the off beat.Highlights include: "Nemesis Nauticus"," Probability Wave","Surfin' Nerd"and a really kool cover of "Green Eyed Lady". That's right these boys have the balls to cover Sugarloaf and you gotta love that.Big Surf is a band that has a great rep but for whatever reason the band has yet to gain the exposure they deserve. Probability Wave is one surf album you may want to check out http://bigsurfband.com/ https://www.facebook.com/pages/Big-Surf/105731259490247
Voodoo Swing - Fast Cars Guitars Tattoos and Scars 2013
For 20 years now Voodoo Swing has been kicking out some pretty kool rockabilly.Despite 6 good albums the band hasn't really gotten the attention they deserve.Hell I can count on one hand the number of rockabillys I know who have heard of them yet I know a whack of blues followers who are into these kats. Saying that the band has just dropped their 7th album"Fast Cars Guitars Tattoos and Scars" and guess what this is big ,bold ,diverse and easily their best. We get 14 tracks here that is a rich and pleasing stew of roots music.From rockabilly, jump blues ,country to western swing and shades of bluegrass.Make no mistake here: this puppy still rocks.Highlights include:"My Rockabilly Martian Gal”,"Chasin the Devil's Hot Rod","Seein Double Boogie" and "Down the Oak". Most bands would never attempt to push this far outside their perceived comfort zone but Voodoo Swing not only has but have done it well also.Big gamble equals big pay-off .Recommended https://www.facebook.com/voodooswing http://www.voodooswing.net/

The Brains - The Monster Within 2013
I'm going to get right to the point here The Brains are the undisputed champs of Canadian psychobilly,arguably Canada's best band of any genre in the past 5 or 6 years and are world beaters to boot. Hell there are a few bands from Europe and South America that even sound like them. Don't believe me, just listen to their first 4 albums in order .Now 'The Monster Within" (the band's 5th album) continues a streak of stellar releases that really is kinda mind boggling.This puppy delivers a knock-out punch with 14 damn impressive tracks of psychobilly.Highlights include: "Rolling Down", "The Monster Within", "Give It All" and " Stay Back". Monster is one kinetic,intense and killer joyride but it can be summed up in one word : WOW. Highly recommended https://www.facebook.com/TheBrainsMTL?fref=ts
Blue Moon Bombers - South Paw 2013
In 2012 the Blue Moon Bombers released a pretty good little debut album called "Bombs Away" than you could say went under the wire.Not to be deterred the boys went back to the woodshed and have returned with another very solid album.,No sophomore jinx here "Southpaw" punches the ticket with 13 tracks that range from kick-butt rockabilly to folksy blues,surf and psychobilly.This is more diverse and stronger than their debut.The Bombers are one band that can truly claim to be too rockabilly for the psychos and too Psycho for the rockabillies. This is raw and rough and that's a kool strong point for the band .Highlights include: " My Baby Don't Love Me" , "Devil Inside", " Nightmare Girl " and " 54 Hellevedere".The Blue Moon Bombers are a band that deserve your attention.Recommended https://www.facebook.com/pages/Blue-Moon-Bombers/101200483304625?fref=ts http://www.reverbnation.com/bluemoonbombers

Top Cats - Smashing To The Ground 2013
Sweden's Top Cats have been around since 2001 and have been one of the country's hardest working bands.However thier big break came in the Melodifestivalen 2012(Sweden's Euro song contest).The band finished 6th and it propelled their debut album "Heartache" up the charts, not bad for a rockabilly band.With "Smashing To The Ground" (the band's 2nd album) these Cats are upping their game .Clocking in with 12 originals,this is better than "Heartache" but it isn't really a rockabilly album .This is way more and I mean way more rock n roll than rockabilly.Christ some people may even say it's mainstream.Highlights include:"Walk On By", "Smashing To The Ground","She's A Devil" and "Black Widow Spider". You have to give it to Top Cats,this is a solid, devise, well written and executed album.This is one of those deals that could split their fans but at the same time give them a boat load more. www.topcats.se/ https://www.facebook.com/TopCatsOfficial?ref=ts&fref=ts

Aloha Screwdriver - The Haunted Planet 2013
You just know with a name like Aloha Screwdriver that this is one killer band.Since 2009 these Californian kats have been playing a kool brand of surf meets twang that has been called "high octane surf" and rightly so.In 2011 the bands ep "No Way Out" hit a chord with many surf lovers.Now there back with their debut album "The Haunted Planet"and man it's pretty damn good.Lambasting us with 11 tracks(8 originals) of surf/Instrumental rock.This not the traditional surf your daddy listened too.What we have here is a merger of traditional surf,spaghetti,horror,punk,smash mouth surf and rockabilly.If that wasn't enough for you we also have a healthy dose of twang some Russian folk and even tinges of metal / prog rock to boot .Highlights include:"Click Bang Boom", "A Deadly Demise", "Creature Screecher" and "Doom Buggy Hellride". At the end of the day this is one hell of a groovy ride and you could sum it all up in 4 words: kool album,kool band. Highly recommended https://www.facebook.com/pages/Aloha-Screwdriver/230524580808 http://www.alohascrewdriver.com/
