Kidnappers - Ransom Notes & Telephone Calls (Alien Snatch).
Somewhere halfway 'tween the better Rip Off releases and the Hives at their rockinest best lies the territory occupied by the Kidnappers, a young German trio set to take the globe by storm w/ their explosive brand o' punky-rock'n'roll. A version of Lolli & the Chones' 'Everybody Hates Me' should give some clues, while closer inspection reveals that 'Hey, Hey, Hey' liberally quotes the Dolls' 'Mystery Girls' and 'Excuse Me' is a thinly disguised rip of the Count Bishops take on 'Teenage Letter'. Obviously the kind of influences one can wear w/ pride, but rest assured that their own material easily compares. These guys are on a mission, and I suggest you donate to their cause ASAP.
