Kid Congo Powers played guitar in both The Cramps and The Gun Club (and Nick Cave's Bad Seeds) and his album from two years ago, Dracula Boots, got played regularly round here. I've just discovered Kid Congo and his band The Pink Monkey Birds have got a new album out, Gorilla Rose. So that's on the shopping list. This is from a split single from last year (the other side was by Hunx & His Punx. Anyone?), a thrilling piece of garage rock called Floor Length Hair, that makes the hairs on the back of the neck stand up a little.
The new album is worth shelling out for SA.
