F.A.K. - Grußlos 1981

F.A.K. is a post-punk band from Stuttgart and was active in the early 1980s, the band consisted of Maggie (vocals), Martin (guitars), Ulf (bass), Vic (keyboard), Simon (sax) & Alfred (drums) and 1981 their first EP Verzweiflungstat 1 appeared on Schreckschuss Schallplatten, available in any well-stocked record store at bargain price. Useless Review: A push from the Stuttgart area, which ended the 7Inch trial phase with a very pleasant work, and has difficulty in getting the hoped-for attention, but it definitely deserves to be mentioned. Playfulness and a good concept is behind it - and you can hear that. 'Grußlos' is published by the small Stuttgart Intact label and is very contemporary, the band operates with currently popular means, with straight rhythms, a slightly snotty voice, small electronic gadgets, brittle guitar sound, a saxophone that sets the right notes at the right time (Bad Charly), from time to time it gets weird, it always stays fresh and unprofessional. (Martin Sulkowsky, Sounds No.1/January 1982) - Translated this means: a convincingly real slab with potential and musically are F.A.K. snappy, angular and with an evil sound, rarely represented on compilations and what F.A.K. means remains hidden in the shadows of the microcosm, Hell...Yeah!
