Eleven songs from the Australian band WET BLANKETS. Rise Of Wet Blankets is their debut 12” lasting just 18 minutes. Wet Blankets don’t write long songs, don’t have a permanent guitarist on this LP, in fact, Wet Blankets write songs about real world problems like homeless people, stealing from Coles and being late for school.The band came together round August of 2013, when 14-year-old ZANE GARDNER started slammin’ chords and rippin’ solos on his brother’s guitar. By the years end, a two track 7” was recorded in the bedroom and released in February ’14 on Italian label Goodbye Boozy. A couple of months later, Rise Of Wet Blankets was born. The record was recorded on the industrial side of West Geelong with top bloke MARK DOMAN on his reel-to-reel 8 track one Saturday last year, spitting out influences like the Reatards, Swell Maps, Ramones and Dead Kennedy’s to name a few. Guitarists ZAK & JAKE (of HIEROPHANTS fame) take turns shredding over the top of each track to give it some extra life, but what it really sounds like is a fifteen-year-old kid yellin’ his guts out about bogans stealing carrots, crummy school teachers and eating overcooked steak for breakfast.
