Today, we are psyched to debut the new album by The Claudettes!Chicago's The Claudettes are a real theatrical band. With the same playhouse gusto of World/Inferno Friendship Society and Dresden Dolls, the band merges punk, power pop, new wave, and the stage for a real full-on type sound. The band has a brand new record out this Friday called Garage Glamour.Speaking to Punknews, band founder, Johnny Iguana states "I suppose Garage Glamour can get filed under punk just as my favorite album, Minutemen's Double Nickles on the Dime, was filed under punk. That album pivoted into one musical style after another, and so does ours, and yet they sounded like Minutemen all through it, and we sound like only one band all across Garage Glamour, too. There are specific nods to Zombies, Kraftwerk, the Doors, Rachmaninov, the Chi-Lites, Al Green, Bernard Herrmann, Wanda Jackson, Gang of Four, Devo, David Lynch, Beastie Boys and more on Garage Glamour. I think it is an incredibly fun ride to take, this album."You can hear the release below!
