Reviews of Drag me Up
Wooooooooooooooow, this is fantastic!!!!! After so many garage punk bands I heard, there are still bands that can kick me straight into head, just like I’m playing Gravedigger V or Fuzztones for the first time. Lost Movements are 100% my taste. They do it just the way I like – manic, fast, a bit trashy, with organ, great guitar solos and really super cool singer who knows how to scream. But that’s not enough to be so great, you also need great songs. The Lost Movements definitelly have it. It’s just 6 tracks 10″ and I wish it was 12″ with more songs. The worst thing is that they played here in Holland and I missed them. So I really really hope they will come to play here again cos this 10″ really blew my mind

THE LOST MOVEMENTS – Drag Me Up, 10” MLP
Lonestar Records, LS-012, 2004 Germany
I believe that this band’s name was simply The Movements in the beginning but they changed it on the way for some reason. Anyways, even if they called themselves the Abbas (! Cool name for a band, isn’t it?!?!?!) I would also like them for their furious and untamed garage punk sound and playing! The record starts with a “Thinking Too Fast”, a magnificent wylde uptempo garage stomper (wow!) that reminds me the Pikes In Panik album and the Lust-O-Rama! Only for this song it’s worth to get the record!! The other songs are on the same garage style with loud vocals, angry guitars and swinging organ harmonies!

Brandnew young group from Sweden once again. After earning their reputation as a great live band, it’s time to put their best songs to date on wax. And yes, it is another “the-band”, but why should anyone care? It is the music that counts. And that is some of the freshest most catchy neo-sixties organ driven rock’n'roll we heard in years. Six songs – only hits!

Und noch mehr exzellenter Sixties-Garage-Punk mit lotsa Fuzz aus Schweden! Die Trüffelschweine von Lonestar Records sind auf diese junge Band gestoßen, die nach ein paar Jahren Livetraining jetzt also ihre erste Platte in Form einer schicken 6-Song-10″-EP raus hat. Angeblich hieß die Band aus Göteborg früher THE MOVEMENTS, was aber wohl zu Verwechslungen mit den Dänen THE MOVEMENT führte.
Fuzzgitarre und Orgel sind hier prägende Stilmittel, man trägt die Haare lang und ist jung und schlaksig – der Look stimmt, die Attitüde, die Musik, alles bestens. Tip! (08/10)
MOVEMENTS – dragee ME UP 10″(lonestar recs.de) DRAWS And still more exzellenter Sixties garage Punk with lotsa Fuzz from Sweden! The Trueffelschweine of Lonestar records is discovered this young volume, which send now after few years a live training thus their first plate in form of one to 6-Song-10″-EP raus have. Those was called volume from Goeteborg in former times THE alleged MOVEMENTS, which however probably led to mistakes with the Danes THE MOVEMENT. Fuzzgitarre and organ are style means coining/shaping here, one carry the hair long and are young and schlaksig – the Look tunes, the Attituede, the music, everything in the best way. Tip!

10″ compuesto por seis trallazos garageros.
Comienza con “Thinking too fast”, pensar no sé, pero tocar…Revientan la
velocidad del sonido. La siguiente canción en aparecer es “Drag me up”,
ayudándose más de los teclados y sin perder un ápice de agresividad. Esta
cara, finaliza con “It’s time to go” Acojonante! Uno de los mejores temas
punk-garageros que he escuchado. Pasamos la cara y nos encontramos en
primer lugar “I feel groovy”. La velocidad no la sueltan. El farfisa tras
la grabación podría servir para hacer una barbacoa, porque le dan un meneo
inhumano. La siguiente en aparecer es “Give you had”, un poco más calmada,
pero vamos nada de pensar en baladitas ni por asomo!!Y eso que le meten
hasta piano. El disco finaliza a lo grande con “CCTV”
Translation:
10″made up of six garageros trallazos. Fast begins with “Thinking too”, to think I do not know, but to touch… They burst the sonic speed. The following song in appearing is “Drag up”, helping itself me more of the keyboards and without losing an aggressiveness apex. This face, finalizes with “It’s Time to go” Acojonante! One of the best subjects punk-garageros than I have listened. We passed the face and we were in the first place “I feel groovy”. The speed does not loosen it. Farfisa after the recording could serve to make a barbecue, because they give him I wag cruel. The following one in appearing is “Give you had”, a little more calmed, but we go nothing to think about baladitas nor by asomo!!Y that that puts to him until piano. The disc finalizes to the great thing with “CCTV”.
