about

English below
The Melmacs (GER) packen mit 'Good Advice' ihre erste Langspielplatte in die Waagschale: 10 Songs pures Kampfgewicht, das euch supersüß, superfies und supersonnig in den Rücken fällt, euch den Schmalz aus den Ohren zutscht und auf die Tanzfläche schubst: Da bleibt keine Achselhöhle trocken, keine Stimme unheiser und keine Frisur gestriegelt: 100-prozentige Hit- und Zappelgarantie bis die Sohlen qualmen.
Müsste 'Good Advices' in eine einzige Genre-Schublade reingepresst werden, müsste bei The Melmacs ganzschön viel draußen liegen bleiben. Deswegen fangen wir das mit dem Aufräumen einfach gar nicht erst an und lassen die vier zu ihrem gewohnten Rundumschlag ausholen, der die Genregrenzen von 77er-Punk, Rock'n'Roll, 70s Rock, PowerPop und Punkrock nach Art des Hauses vernichtet.
So viel ist aber sicher: Mit ein paar Blasenpflastern, einer guten Musikanlage, toleranten Nachbar:innen, 3 bis 5 Shots Likörchen, einem Rest Pizza, etwas Lametta und einem Feuerzeug seid ihr gut ausgestattet, um euch mit der heißen Scheibe auf den Planeten
Melmac zu beamen – gute Laune und positive Energie gibt es inklusive. Uuuund ab!

The Melmacs (GER) put their first long-playing record in the balance: weighing in at 10 songs, very nice, very evil, stabbing you in the back, blowing out your earwax, rising the sun with it‘s bare hands, nudging you on the dancefloor: no armpit left dry, no voice unhoarse, no haircut prim and proper: 100% hits, 100% fidgetity, `til your bottoms burn!
To fit „Good Advices“ into a single pigeonhole a helluva lot pigeons must be left outta the hole. Therefore we won‘t even start this cleaning-up-thingy and let this 4-piece straight up haul off for their familiar slobberknocker breaking down the walls of `77 punk, rock‘n‘roll, 70s rock, power pop, and punk rock à la maison.
It is certain: with blister plaster and a ghetto blaster, resilient neighbours, a little liqueur and a rest of pizza, some tinsel and a lighter, you are more than well poised to let this record beam you up to Planet Melmac – good mood and positive energy included. Let‘s äh go!
