ASTROBURGER TRIBUTE

Here at last the long awaited tribute. A Grimful of asha! Featuring 9 different bands from 7 different towns in 4 different countries in 2 different world regions this collection promises caleidiscopic invention and glory.

The selected songs span from the first ever released single “She’s a girl” performed by the Loch Ness Mouse up to a bluegrass version (!!!) of “Sybil” by the Roof Rabbits. The spanish group Thy Surfing Eyes have not only desiffered the cryptical lines of Don Bingo but also translated them into Spanish!! “I want to be alone” becomes “Quiero estar solo”. Rumours say that the cosy bandname "Hug" hides a japanese girlpunkgroup reforming "If I ever knew you". If that is true why don't we do something about it!!. Ring performes “The Mess you left behind “ an almost specialwritten song. Its only released before on one of the Krank samplers. Astroburgers aren't sure but believe that they ran into members from Tad Pole this summer but then they were called something else! (typical astro-problem). If that is the case we use this chance to say hello! Tad Pole does “Mona Lisa” the most frenetical tune on the record. The seasick tune “Not That It Means So Much” gets specialist treatment by Slowburn. Believe it or not but I guess they will play it even slower and more seasick than the original. A dutch group with the phonetical disaster Muad ‘dlib as name have delivered “Compromise Solutions” an old live astro-favourite. The whole collection ends with “I Wish I HAd A Girl” played by Hobbits. Last but not least. Hobbits are almost entitled to be veteranburgers since they started the first astoburgepage on the net and also once recorded a song about a perfect evening. The title on that one was “She even had heard about Astroburger”.
