This is not music for the faint hearted. This is not music for the weak. Prepare to monkey.
Prepare to
shake it.
Inspired by the music of
Link Wray, Sandy Nelson or
Dick Dale, the
Magic Twangers show up with their own brand of stomp. Smoking
guitar picking, crazy tremelo dips, sexy bass grooves, and in your face jungle drumming has
the place in a frenzy!
Nürnberg's staggeringly great Instrumental combo manage to coalesce
surf stylings which will pin you against the wall. (No complaints please.)
Before the sloth-like bouncers can intercept them, they storm the stage, batting the skulls
of the loser band with their instruments and hurling them off the stage with the same movement
you use to empty a garbage can. Within seconds
Mr Randy Nelson is behind the kit, and
begins to pound out a hypnotic and primal beat.
Doc Man Chu and
Panama Pat crash in with crushing power and millisecond
precision, like a hundred mile long wave of lava exploding on the beach of Planet Vulcan.

Out in the audience a dreadlocked eyebrow twitches. Hairs on the back of spotty, unwashed
necks rise. Limbs jerk. The barman snaps the stem of a martini glass in astonishment.
Somewhere, deep in his guts, something is stirring. They are – what's the word? Dancing,
that‘s it! Dancing. He hasn't seen dancing in here since the night James Brown stopped by
to play a secret country'n'western gig. But – he wonders – what is that music?
And then he realises: It is the sound of some primal twang, some primitive rumble of rhythm –
the sound of the
Magic Twangers, dormant a billion years, on a mission to breathe life
into the half-dead, to express the surf gene in every human... It is the sound of the future
and of the past, and already, even here, in this pool of dismay, they are whooping with joy
and surfing on the tables.
Finally, when you think of the
Magic Twangers don't just think of kids round the fire,
havin' fun. Think
James Bond on a long board checking out the barrels with a Cougar
Magnum strapped to his board shorts to waste the seagulls. Think
three bleach blondes
playing Twister on a blanket while kids on the dunes play Russian Roulette. Think
hot rod, think
surf, think
Blue Moon Babes that make
Nobody’s Guys riding on a
Down Bound Train...
Whatever you do, think
danger – think the
Magic Twangers.
