This Manchester homed outfit, while sounding nothing like The Buzzcocks, possesses the same spirit, punk style and that little something that comes out the thumping, forceful and fiery hardcore
skirting; ‘That was a negative (and now I need too positives)' . A tint of blues comes out in the title and the winding introductory guitars of ‘Wrong Way In The Morning’ that sends a volley of hitting bass lines, frantic
No Use For a Name type guitars and Dustin Kensrue vocals with strong and brusque backing down onto the listener. 'Straight Hedge' juxtaposes Sham 69 vocals with bubbly flower/psychedelic pop instrumental interludes, as the guys seek out people
who runaway and plead for them to be bold.
The downtrodden ‘Rita, Sue and Bob Too’ catches mundane life and puts it into a blender with Ramones cockiness, Good Riddance urgency and Goldblade-esque backing vocals
that fire home a downtrodden tale. Guitarist and singer Dave has set out the pioneering and eccentric nature of their well and received live shows
“We are the first band in history to create the ‘Moshage’; that’s a mosh pit with dog toy strings of sausages flying around instead of fists. It’s more dangerous than it
sounds!”
It was hard to picture the above mentioned concept, but these rasping numbers open your imagination and make it possible. Revenge Of The Psychotronic Man has set a blueprint for a quirky, commanding and
eccentric musical career that can put the fun back into punk.
