Vicious rumours - Farticus

The latest of the British bands of old to make a comeback. ""Farticus"" compiles new songs recorded in the U.S. in the early 2000s, as demos and tracks released as a split CD with The Generators. There are also two excellent quality live tracks recorded in Leipzig, Germany, and the band's first demo from 1983 with slightly primitive versions of ""This is your loife"", ""Soul patrol"" and ""Take the blame"". The newly recorded songs sound very good, somewhere between ""Anytime day or night"" and ""The sickest men"", but slightly rockier. The songs are, as expected, not too serious, rather tongue in cheek. The demo tracks are fun to listen to, with their different lyrics and stripped-down garage sound.
