As O’Rourke’s synth squelches and stutters and Ambarchi’s heavily effected pedal steel somehow begins to sound like a kind of hellish blues harmonica

Singer/songwriter Kurt Vile has a way with hushed tunes

And after the Second World War

plaintive vocals and subtle hooks that have mysteriously kept a deserving band in semi-obscurity for thirty years plus

STRAITJACKET - Demented Perverts LP japan As O’Rourke’s synth squelches andInner sleeve with liner notes and photos. Highly recommended. Straitjacket with Freddie Wadling on bass and vocals was one of the first punk bands in Sweden. The first gig took place at a motorcycle club and at a gig shortly afterwards, the band was offered money by the organizer to leave the stage prematurely. The band split in the summer of 1978 and the members continued in bands such as Liket Lever, The Leather Nun and Blue For Two. Straitjacket
