The Courettes • Boom! Dynamite (An Introduction To The Fabulous Courettes) LP
The Courettes get an ideal introduction with Boom! Dynamite (An Introduction To The Fabulous Courettes), a fourteen-track collection bringing together some of the duo's finest fuzzed-up Garage Rock and Rock ’n’ Roll. Featuring the raw guitar, pounding drums and infectious melodies that have become their trademark, this is a great snapshot of The Courettes' distinctive sound.
The set opens with Boom! Dynamite, Hop The Twig and Want You! Like A Cigarette, followed by Christmas (I Can Hardly Wait), Time Is Ticking, I've Been Walking and Only Happy When You're Gone. Side Two brings together The Boy I Love, Night Time (The Boy Of Mine), R.I.N.G.O, Misfits & Freaks, Strawberry Boy, Push It Too Hard and Voodoo Doll, with guest appearances from Kim Kix and Coffin Joe.
Originally released in 2023 as a limited edition US pressing, this edition comes on purple vinyl. With fourteen tracks spanning the band's early output, Boom! Dynamite is a superb introduction to The Courettes and their high-energy blend of Garage Rock and Rock ’n’ Roll.
