Zack Zack - Demo (2010)

Because I'm old and have been listening to Punk Rock for a long time, finding new bands that are interesting and exciting past a few listens is not easy but there are a few. One of those bands is Zack Zack from Berlin Germany. I'd never heard of them before I saw them last summer at Berlin's famous S.O. 36 club. I thought they were very good that night and recently I got this demo that they recorded and have been listening to it constantly since it arrived. They are definitely 70s Punk and Mod Revival inspired.
