The Freeks - American Lightning


Los Angeles band, THE FREEKS, know that as the Earth revolves the sun and the Universe infinitely expands, it must be shared with as many different kinds of life as there are stars. A bold statement coming from a bunch of FREEKS. This is not a new concept, however, an ever-recurring one dating back to Ezekiel’s biblical account to even further back with evidence from ancient Egypt and Mayan times. After 4,000 years the theory continues strong as we enter 2018.

THE FREEKS also enter 2018 with the completion of "CRAZY WORLD", their fourth full length “LP” and second release for Italian based HEAVY PSYCH SOUNDS RECORDS. A studio record with eight songs that take you on a psychedelic journey from hidden moonlit distilleries all the way up to the Mothership and back down to Mother Earth. It could have happened in 2700 BC and it’s definitely happening again now as THE FREEKS continue to ferment their ethanol infused fuzz rock, bead their songwriting to reflect a heavier content and extract added amounts of psychoactive chemicals from the minds of their listeners.


THE FREEKS consists of: Ruben Romano (founding member of FU MANCHU and NEBULA) returns at the helm supported by Bob Lee on drums (CLAW HAMMER, MIKE WATT), Esteban Steban Chavez on Keys, Jonathan Hall on Guitar (BACKBITER) and introducing the latest Freek on Bass, Ray Piller (BIBLICAL PROOF OF U.F.O.’s).


Today's tune "American Lightning" taken from the album "Crazy World", featuring the ripping guitar leads by Ray Hanson (from legendary THEE HYPNOTICS), enjoy!
