Dutch two-man swamp garage band, excelling in an original mix of raw stompin' blues and high-octane punk rock.


Editorial review

This Dutch duo have made the sort of CD you take to right from the opening bell, like they're beating you with a stick. A pounding, sinful beat, dirty screaming guitars, filthy bass, just-right distorted vocals, and a bunch of mean-dog riffs add up the true spirit of rock 'n' roll. Too much stomping jump blues and old rock 'n' roll to be "punk," but as flaming-embers smoky in sound, this is the wild bastard son of every Bo Diddley record you've ever spun. The floor tom booms mercilessly, the guitar licks kick in that diseased Cramps way, the bass starts swinging, and the production hits you in the face with a blast of mud-pie. It keeps on going all 11 songs, the heavy heat of this Euro band meeting the swamps of Louisiana and the most out-of-the-way club on Chicago's south side, with a modern blast of a sound that just makes your ears stand up like a doberman's. This stuff is so churning, roaring, fuzzy, and trashy, you want to mix up spells and potions with Screaming Jay Hawkins and make a date with David Seville's "Witch Doctor." This is such a wonderful perversion of Big Joe Turner and Howling Wolf, 2002 style, that you'd swear the FBI would want to ban it. "Scream the blues!" said Hawkins, and these guys made it zap to life like the first punk rock band. When they say "Let's rock the house," you say, "Right!" ~ Jack Rabid, The Big Takeover, All Music Guide

Bio / Background

Lo-Lite spits swamp gas for some five years now. During these years they sweated and stank on a lot of stages in and outside Holland . This Dutch two-man band, excelling in an original mix of raw stompin' blues and a high-octane punky rock tops the cream of the crap. A slithering slideguitar, some maniac vocals and pounding drums make a surprisingly heavy live sound. Lo-Lite absolutely hasn't the tinny sound one might expect from such a small band. Though bare boned primitive, the songs carefully evade quite some silly rock 'n roll cliché's, we're not talking copycats here, but the real HOW-HOW-HOW-HOW boogie chillin' thing.

Fresh back from a tour of Italy, Switzerland, Slovenia, and Germany, LO-LITE plans to continue touring throughout the summer, including crossing the pond for a 2-week west coast tour, their first outside of Europe.
