PRIMITIVE!
THE FIRST DUTCH INTERNATIONAL GARAGE FESTIVAL
Three days of wild twisted city rock & teenage kicks!
The time has come that a long cherished juvenile dream will come true. The first Dutch International Garage Festival is in the works and is aptly named Primitive! Featuring everything inbetween the pioneering original raw sixties sounds to the mayhem of nowadays decent garage bands.
No lame retro crap, not a boring old farts? band from the stone age, and no dull bandwagon jumpers of the so-called new garage groups. The garage music, as originated in the United States during the mid sixties as a Transatlantic answer to the music of the so-called British Invasion groups, is celebrating its third major revival these days and Primitive!is all about the raw, pure exciting sounddriven by teenage energy and a never ending search for the kicks in life.
Primitive! will be a wild garage punk blow out; three days of the best bands and deejays available. On the bill are amongst others: The Remains, a legendary group responsible for great godlike classics, they toured the States with The Beatles and are still worshipped by fans of sixties music all over the world. The Chesterfield Kings, the absolute rulers of the early eighties garage-revival, The Buff Medways fronted by
Renaissance man and cult hero Billy Childish, The Solarflares, who came from the ashes of The Prisoners. The Von Bondies are coming from motor city Detroit and this band currently hits the big time in the wave of new garage bands.
This and much, much more, the aforementioned groups are only the headliners of the festival. If this is not enough to blow all visitors of Primitive! out of their socks, the promotors have also hired the tip top prima-de-luxe deejays on the scene, featuring Tim Warren, infamous head honcho of Crypt Records. This label has been responsible for compilations like Back From The Grave, Transworld Punk Rave Up, Garage Punk Unknowns and Teenage Shutdown.
Crypt Records was also thelabel toscout bands like The Oblivians, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Thee Headcoats and The Gories.
