Various Artists - Garland Records: Pacific Northwest Fuzz Box (2019)

A fuzz-guitar Cascadian cache! The drive’s cranked all the way up and the needle’s fully in the red for this set of uptempo garage-punk stompers from Salem’s enigmatic Garland Records. Packed with killer, crunchy bass, pummeling drums, in-your-face vocals, and (of course) mountains of fuzz-guitar! 13 tracks (primarily originals, with distorted deviations of select known numbers) that range from impossibly rare to previously unreleased.
