***NOMOS 751 (Νόμος 751 / ΝΟΜΟΣ 751) self-titled LP***
Slovenly Recordings proudly presents the debut vinyl offering from Greek punk prankster George Fotopoulos, doing business as electro-punk outfit NOMOS 751. This self-titled LP houses more music than should be legally permissible on a single album, with 17 tracks of tricky compositions propelled by rinky-dink synth and programmed percussion ranking at zero acidity on the PH scale for Phat Beats. Having previously rotted our minds in the mid-aughts with his Thessaloniki budget rocker crew KOMODINA 3, Mr. Fotopoulos has developed and perfected a seizure inducing sonic smorgasbord of complicated and hilarious racket and punk rock polyrhythms that sounds like your favorite Stranglers LP played at 45rpm, or perhaps backwards, or at least in Greek. Enjoy the gibberish whatever you’re capable of computing. There’s even a giant, full color newsprint poster housed in the jacket with lyrics printed in both Greek and English, for the curious and / or literate.
***NOMOS 751 "M.A.T." 7inch***
Thessaloniki Greece’s most psychotic pseudo-pscientists NOMOS 751 emerge from their psecret laboratory located kilometers under Earth’s crust with a new 7inch EP, lyrically dedicated to political and societal injustices, woes and struggles, but with a snappy beat you can sink your d***s into. Title track “M.A.T.” dominates the top deck with a mild warning to Greek riot pigs: “I don't have a name, I don't have a number, I kill you and send you naked back to your mother,” (but sung in Greek, as Mondo Mongo dictates the tongue of the mother). The lunatic vox of Sanja Djordjevic has been enlisted this go-round for a cover of “Moraću Se Boriti,” originally by Serbian new-wavers BOYE. Already a brilliant slice of aggro and off-kilter post-punk in its primitive form, now updated with extra venom for demanding punks of exceptional taste.
***KOMODINA 3 self-titled LP***
What we have here is the disastrous, teeth-grinding missing link between The Penetrators “Kings of Basement Rock” LP, The Rip Offs uber-classic “Got A Record,” and whatever other garage punk s**t you’re listening to now, like if WAU Y LOS ARRRGHS!!! were covering the Killed By Death catalog instead of Back From The Grave. Komodina 3 is a budget-rock anomaly recorded in radically separated stereophonic sound. Ridiculous dumpster drums augmented by a childish assortment of cheap shaking devices, cheesy Farfisa Compact organ just the way we like it, guitars that’ll have you reaching for your itch-powder, and juvenile ADD vocals (sung entirely in Greek!) that numb your cerebellum like the earliest SPITS recordings.
