DEAD BEAT RECORDS (USA)

Three numbers by this French punkrock band that reminds of TV Killers and The Stitches. Old school punk in a mid-tempo. Two tracks in english and one in snotty french. 500 hand-numbered copies on clear vinyl and cool artwork. Don't miss this future kbd candy!

SHAKE YOUR ASS RECORDS (IT)

Os Flying Over são uma formação já com dez anos, com poucos registos e muitas mudanças, agora sediados em La Rochelle (Bordéus - França) onde existe um marcante e forte movimento de garage-punk, estando isso bem demonstrado neste 7", que para além de muito competente não soa a nada que não tenhamos já escutado, destacando-se "Fier de Deplaire", que é muito aconselhável.

ROCK AROUND THE BLOG (P)

Un groupe qui évolue depuis quelques années entre Bordeaux et La Rochelle avec notamment un ancien Tv Killers mais qui a vu passer également pas mal de monde qui ont joué dans d'autres groupes punk garage dont la région regorge (4teen Killers, 80's Furies, Sexy girls and Go-Go Men Show, Jerky Turkey, Jakes, Hero X). Les trois morceaux sont super bien et sonnent dans la tradition des Tv Killers avec un petit coté No talents pour les choeurs féminins sur les deux chansons en anglais. Il y a aussi la chanson typique 77 en français «Fier de déplaire» façon Dominique Laboubé en plus viril. Bref un bon disque de punk rock pour les amateurs de French Touch et, comme le vinyle est transparent, et bah on voit à travers. M.

Hey, I think I found the French equivalent to The Stitches. It's well-played, basic punk rock with sinus-infection snottiness and one monitor borrowed directly from the Sex Pistols. Not as spitfire jagged as The No Talents, nor as bouncy-catchy as The Hatepinks, but competent. –Todd Taylor

Razorcake (USA)

Auf durchsichtigem Vinyl gibt's hier dreimal klassischen 77er Punkrock des Ehepaares Jet Boy und Jet Girl (haha, wie originell ...), der sich nicht vor ihren Landsmännern und Brüdern im Geiste T.V. KILLERS, HATEPINKS und NEUROTIC SWINGERS zu verstecken braucht, aber auch (noch) nicht ganz an die Klasse dieser Bands heranreicht. Ein Song ist sogar en français (6) (Finn Quedens)

Flying Over : Danger Boy 7" (Frantic City/Shit In Can/Adrenalin Fix)

The a-side sports two rad fast punk/rock'n'rollers not unlike The Stitches or TV Killers with a touch of those Rip Off bands, while the flip "I Wanna Destroy You!" is a great midtempo snotfest. Nothing you haven't heard before, but this shit is solid as Lee Marvin kickin' butt in a Noir flick. Flying Over has been around for 10 years and have previously released the "Rockin' Frenchies" album including an Infections cover!

Clear vinyl limited to 500 copies. If you dig: Stitches, TV Killers (Jens)

FLYING OVER - "Danger Boy" EP

I haven't even listened to this one yet and I can just tell I'm going to like it. (It's a good thing after what that fucker LAZLO did to me.) The cover has a sort of EPOXIES feel to it. Let's check it out. Wow. This is old school punk rock in a mid-tempo, catchy, but not wimpy style. The Frenchies know their history when it comes to punk rock. They know that punk is simple, straightforward, not meant to be complicated. All three tracks are quality, just like I knew they would be. (KK)

Maximum Rock'n'Roll (USA)

Ils ont eu le bassiste des TV Killers comme CPE au Lycée et maintenant on voit le resultat: du Frenchie Rock'n'Roll dans la lignée des Hero-X, Gasolheads, Pneumonias et bien sûr TV Killers! Cette petite pièce de vinyle ( mise en boîte au fameux studio du Chalet près de Bordeaux) crépite de références retro punk. Un groupe dont on devrait entendre de plus en plus parler maintenant qu'ils ont abandonné la Charente Maritime pour écumer les rades les plus infréquentables de la capitale girondine. (Gwardeath)

Thrahison Records / Clubs & Concerts(Fr)

"Nutty punk from France's Flying Over. The highlight is "Danger Boy": Fast, frenetic, catchy & dumbass. Just the way we like it!"(CB)

Sheffield Phonographic Corporation (UK)

Flying Over Danger Boy: Le groupe est reputé pour ses gros clins d'oeil à ses chéris. Ici sont visés: TV Killers, Olivensteins, Soft Boys et les Sex Pistols, sans parler du reste... Trois titres sur le fil du rasoir. (PF)

All right! France's Flying Over is definitely a Now Wave kind of band! The group has been at it since 1996, and put out a CD back in '04. But I believe this is its first 7". It's a good one! Falling somewhere in between straight-up retro '77 and Killed By Death Euro-punk, Flying Over throws it back to the days when the likes of TV Killers and Gasolheads ruled the French punk scene. Boasting fantastic names (Jet Boy, Jet Girl, Gun Boy, Hero Boy) and unassailable influences (Saints, Sex Pistols, Kids, Vibrators), these Frenchie punk n' rollers could very well induce a worldwide revival of pogo dancing. A-side cuts "Danger Boy" and "Fier De Deplaire" burn fast and furious - the former sparked by a call-and-response exchange between Jet Boy and his wife Jet Girl, the latter sung in French and bringing to mind the early Stitches. On the B-side, "I Wanna Destroy You" eases back the speed a tad and snarls in a classic Pistols style. It also kind of reminds me of "Cherry Bomb" by The Runaways - which can only be a good thing! So there you have it, ladies and gentlemen: Flying Over does old style punk right. Now Wave Nation, this is a band to check out!

Now Wave(USA)

This French band seems to have dealt with quite a few line-up changes, which is once more the case since they have relocated from La Rochelle to join the wild R'n'R nightlife in Bordeaux. Their "Rockin' Frenchies" we bought a few years ago sounded like the early Rip Off bands with at times a shot of Dwarves and this is the first time we hear 'em again. "Danger Boy" and "Fier De Deplaire" are two fast and tight punk tracks that are heavily influenced by those other "Fuckin' Frenchies", the TV Killers, who blasted around Europe in the late 90's. "I Wanna Destroy You!" on the flip is a total '77 stomper that reminds a good deal of the Sex Pistols, without the cockney accent! For sure a cool release for all you punk lovers out there!

More Frenchie garage-punk who I recall appearing on the P.Trash KBD covers comp, these Flying Over boys and girls play a hopped-up Nineties-style sort of thing, like the TV Killers after some doses of HGH perhaps. "Danger Boy" will please fans of Jerry Spider Gang or Gasolheads, if such things exist. "Fier De Deplaire" is a nice cut, and the singer sounds a lot more comfortable in his native tongue. "I Wanna Destory You" is not a cover, thank God, but a mid-tempo blue collar punker. Not a real memorable record. It did do me the favor of sending me off on a Soft Boys kick for the rest of the evening however. Scum stats: 500 copies, clear vinyl, three label split release (the Frantic City, Shit in Can and Adrenalin Fix labels all pooled resources on this one...with Shit In Can obviously having the far superior name. And hey, Adrenalin Fix was the title of a TV Killers record, making this review come full circle and allowing me stop typing...)(RK)
