Esta es su biografía en inglés:

1989 / 90 : The Slow Slushy Boys come out of some recording studio with ten tracks, very much influenced by rhythm'n'blues, 60's pop, country music and 60's punk. They create their own label, name it LARSEN Recordz, and release thus their first LP, "Get Crazy!"
1992 : Release of the second Slow Slushy Boys album, "Pretty Monster", still on LARSEN Recordz. From then on, people outside the borders of France start showing interest to the Slow Slushy Boys who get good reviews in magazines such as Hartbeat (Germany), Cryptic Times (Canada), Merlin's Music (Greece) and Ruta 66 (Spain) ; The Slow Slushy Boys will then take part in numerous compilations in Canada, Italy, Australia, Germany, Spain, USA, and France.
1994 / 95 : Two ex-Vindicators (The Wildest 60's punk combo that France has ever Known !) join the group which marks its come back on vinyl. First, a three track EP on LARSEN, "The Girl She Always Smiles", then one EP on an italian label will follow as well as 3 of others on the best french garage punk labels. But, above all, a third album, "Wild Whelk Twist", a ten inches with ten tracks out in june 1995.
1996 : 2 EP's on italian labels, one track for a box 7"s on Jungle Noise (Germany), a split 7" with the fantastic Kravin'A's, an EP again on the french label Wiped Out and a few appearings on european compilations (Twang, Animal, Snap).

1999 : More new stuff from the indestructibleSlushies, includin' 2 EP's on italian labels (Psych-Out rds & Sham Foundation) . New line up since august, with the 3d ex member of the Vindicators (also member of Preachers & Stompin' Harvey & the Fast Wreckers), Cailleton, on guitar, and Teen Axel (13 years old ! he already recorded some organ with the Slow Slushy Boys & the Splinters) on bass/organ. Watch out ! A new LP is planned before the 3d Millenium!

A few concerts in France, Germany & Switzerland, & in Spain for the Wild Week End, with the Rapiers, Sires, King Khan, Freddy Fortune, 5.6.7.8’s, Jackie & the Cedrics, Trouble Makers...
2002/2003 : Only 4 songs have been recorded in 2002 at Larsen studio, but the best ones they never done. Two killer instrumentals composed by Teen'Axel ("Slush Puppy" / "Das weiss der teufel") & released on their 3d seven inches by the great spanish label Butterfly. Also 2 vocals has been cut, 2 of the best soul songs ever, "Shotgun Boogaloo" by Pete Terrace, & "Why (I want to know)" by the unknown genius Nat Hall, released as a single on the brand new german label, Soundflat (Muck & the Mires, Rapiers, Cool Jerks). 2003 has been so quiet that Teen'Axel & Denis decided to record new songs together & then formed the studio project called Benny Gordini with the Teen'Axel Soul Arkestra.

Horroroso

Hay un tipo patético que seguramente él mismo es materia de la que nadie habla y viene sólo a quejarse amargamente de lo absurdo de su existencia.

Para ti Anónimo, saludos

Qué alegría verte de nuevo Limburg, y como siempre con aportaciones sorprendentes. El blog que recomiendas no lo conocía, pero desde que me lo descubriste estoy explorándolo y he de decir que es realmente bueno, GRACIAS. En cuanto al disco del post, aún no lo he oído con detenimiento pero tiene muy buena pinta, así que gracias de nuevo a ti y a Midnight Rambler por la contribución. Por cierto, aprovecho para pedirte de nuevo que ripees los volúmenes 1 y 3 de "Songs The Cramps Taught Us", creo recordar que los tenías en original, así que te lo agradecería muchísimo ya que los enlaces que colgó Lobok75 no están del todo bien, en uno se corta una de las canciones y en otro falta un tema; dado que tú los tienes originales, haznos el favor de ripearlos y colocar el enlace en algún sitio, así corregiremos este pequeño fallo. Lo dicho compañero, un placer como siempre contar con tus contribuciones y con tu descubrimientos. Sigue así. Un abrazo.
