Thee Hypnotics
Righteously Recharged (4lp)
'Righteously Recharged' features four LPs including Thee Hypnotics' acclaimed debut album 'Come Down Heavy' (1990) on violet colored vinyl, the swamp-rock follow-up 'Soul, Glitter & Sin' (1991) on red coloured vinyl and their Chris Robinson, Black Crowes produced third album 'The Very Special Speed Machine' (1994) on clear vinyl, along with a fourth disc, called 'In A Trance' on white vinyl, with their very first single 'Love In A Different Vein' plus early demos and Peel Sessions. Taking their cues from the Detroit militancy of The MC5, the corrupting output of The Stooges and the gospel according to The Cramps, Thee Hypnotics devastating brand of rock'n'roll was propelled by near punishing decibel levels and a fervor bordering on the evangelical.
