Garage kings are back!
What a top CD this is, 11 tracks of high octane garage and boogie woogie from the Kings of Swedish garage - The Nomads. As ever the CD is dominated by Hans Ostlunds lead guitar, his trademark licks and riffs being all over every song, as his six string adds depth and clarity to the retro garage sounds of the band. Listening to this CD transports me to a time in the middle '80s, when Swedish garage was at its height, via bands like The Watermelon Men, The Shoutless, Hidden Charms and The Bangsters. The Nomads, however, were always the band at the top of the tree and it is scandalous that they have never achieved commercial acclaim. Still, it is not too late, so buy this CD and stomp around your room to the garage that never closes.

a 5 star comeback
An excellent comeback album after a lenghty break, now even better with new tracks from more recent loaded deluxe ep
