Atom-Age Vampire in 308 - Balzac

being a notable early release from Balzac, Atom-Age Vampire in 308 is also the band s semi-official subtitle, or at least one that always appears in conjunction with Balzac name on each release. This 7" E.P. contains four original Balzac songs from their early career rooted in the style of a Misfits tribute act, and as it mostly represents the best of their material at that time, it makes for a more pleasantly consistent release than some of their enormously varied early albums. The sound quality is also enjoyably raw and primitive, which aids the atmosphere to a great extent. Atom-Age Vampire in 308 begins with a slow, Black Sabbath style doom riff and a ...

Zennou Naru Musuu No Me Wa Shi O Yubisasu - Balzac

while the rest even approaches the level of Rancid and other contemporary punk acts based in the classic style, but ultimately this fails to make a mark and if anything, only serves to prove that Balzac without the make-up and costumes is really nothing to get excited about. 1.

The Last Men on Earth - Balzac

Balzac are essentially a Japanese rip-off of the Misfits, and for this reason alone it's difficult not to view them with slight contempt and disdain. Imitating the more famous band's sound, horror theme and image to a disappointingly commercial extent that has even seen the release of action figures, this is a band that threatens to be more about gimmick than musical quality, and that just about sums them up. The Misfits have always been my favourite punk rock band, primarily in their original, turbulent incarnation with Glenn Danzig but even in the more recent and even more turbulent reunion works with new singer Michale Graves, but their clichéd, campy horror appearance and ...
