Meatbodies + The Telebrains

In the organizer's words:

presented by SKURREAL

+++ Meatbodies (Los Angeles) +++

[EN]

Meatbodies is the brainchild of Los Angeles rocker Chad Ubovich (also a member of the popular band Fuzz), who has long been a staple of the Californian garage punk and neo-psychedelic scene. The band's guitar-heavy sound

of the band is hard and punky, but also bursting with bent, pop-friendly melodies.

Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom from 2024 is the Meatbodies' most ambitious, varied and well-executed album to date - and possibly their finest hour. Melodic, hook-rich garage rock tracks with influences of shoegaze, drone and Britpop to complement their blistering blue cheer-meets-eggy pop-with-psychedelia sound. The fourth studio album, which is also an ode to 80s LA punk and the rise of indie/alternative music in the UK, plays like a radio station with tracks by Pink Floyd, Ramones, Roky Erickson, Kinks and Spacemen 3.

[MEATBODIES WAS FROM THE MIND]

Meatbodies was from the mind of Los Angeles rocker Chad Ubovich (also member of the highly acclaimed Fuzz), a long time fixture on the California Garage Punk and Neo-Psychedelic scene. The band's guitar-heavy sound is as hard-hitting as the best punk while also brimming with bent, pop-friendly melodies.

2024's Flora Ocean Tiger Bloom is Meatbodies' most ambitious, varied, and realized record to date - and possibly their finest hour. Melodic, hook filled Garage Rock-tracks with influences drawing from Shoegaze, Drone and Britpop as additions to their searing Blue Cheer-meets-Iggy Pop-with-psychedelia. Simultaneously an ode to '80s LA Punk and the rise of Indie/alternative music in the U.K., the 4th studio album plays like a radio station broadcasting a cosmic playlist of early Pink Floyd, Ramones, Roky Erickson, Kinks, and Spacemen 3.

+++ The Telebrains (Vienna) +++

1,3,5,4 - The Telebrains are a Viennese garage punk band that infuse their humor into their entertaining tracks.

"We are a Garage Band that formed this year but it feels like we've probably played together before in another life. Maybe as a classical trio during Renaissance times or something."
