Masshysteri - Var Del Av Stan

Masshysteri makes me want to start buying bottled water from Umea, Sweden because I swear the Swedes must have something in their water to consistently produce punk that's so innovative and yet still deeply nostalgic. Featuring ex-members of The (International) Noise Conspiracy, Vicious and Regulations, Masshysteri plays reverb-heavy surf punk with dueling male/female vocals that mixes influences from the riot girl movement, 1950s Americana and furious punk rock into an infectious package.

Masshysteri seems like it is from some alternate universe where the 1950s never ended and everyone drives around in nuclear-powered rocket-propelled Cadillacs. Remember that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episode with the teenagers from Dimension X? This is what they blasted out of that flying convertible while cruising the pan-dimensional rift. Shit, that might have been the nerdiest sentence I ever wrote.
