GIUDA - "Let's Do It Again" LP (CLEAR VINYL)

CLEAR VINYL VERSION - 300 COPIES

While veteran TKO fans should already be well-versed in Italy’s reigning champs of Bootboy Bovver Rock, GIUDA, here’s the scoop for newcomers:

After the uncompromising opening salvo of 2010’s Racey Roller, GIUDA followed things up with the aptly titled 2013 sophomore release, Let’s Do It Again. And "do it again" they did indeed.

Solidifying the band's lineup with the additions of new drummer Daniele Tarea and lead guitarist Michele “Mikey Steakknife” Malagnini, Let’s Do It Again finds the GIUDA in top form, delivering on the promise of Racey Roller and then some. The stomps are harder, the chants are louder, and the grooves are heavier than ever. Every song on this album is catchy enough to be a legendary single in its own right. This is the very definition of "all killer, no filler."

Thanks to increased touring, and an excellent promotional campaign by Damaged Goods for the UK release, Let’s Do It Again elevated GIUDA's international profile as subculture heroes. Much like Racey Roller before it, Let's Do It Again has seen release internationally on many labels like Fungo Records (Italy), Damaged Goods (UK), TKO, Burning Heart Records (Sweden), and Overdrive Records (Italy).

This is the first domestic release of Let’s Do It Again since TKO initially released it in 2014, and we’re eager to get it into the hands of anyone who missed it the first time around. If that’s you, don’t make the same mistake twice. GIUDA is unequaled at what they do; namely cranking out stomping, modern Glitter Punk anthems that are every bit as essential as the classic 70's material that inspired them.

"When a band is described as “the new Gary Glitter” – by legendary pop Svengali Kim Fowley, no less – and their label proudly slap the quote on their website rather than irately demanding a retraction, you’re entitled to wonder what the hell is going on. The answer: Italian quintet Giuda are the greatest ’70s glam-rock band to have existed since… the 1970s. Bedecked with more handclaps and tambourines than a Pentecostal church, their second album starts with a Mud reference (‘Wild Tiger Woman’), cribs from The Sweet’s ‘Blockbuster’ (‘Teenage Rebel’) and reaches a conceptual zenith with the song title ‘Roller Skates Rule OK’. Their zeal for time travel would be frightening if they didn’t write such stomping tunes. "
