The Pyramids - Hunch Your Body, Love Somebody

London duo The Pyramids make short sharp songs about the act of love, comprised primarily of '70s rock and blues influences, fused with a healthy dose of '80s sleaze. With the heavily distorted guitars left to drown out the vocals, their debut single, Hunch Your Body, Love Somebody, sounds like a mash up of The Stooges and The White Stripes. Recorded on ancient equipment in a tumbledown barn, this is raw, dirty garage rock at its best. All old influences and with the rough edges left on, this is the sound that the likes of BMRC et al aspire to. [Neil Ferguson]
