IDOL FRET / Hey Fourosia
1977 is when Punk went mainstream. It needed to happen. I mean, have you ever heard Tales from Topographic Oceans? So, for the fiftieth anniversary of this cultural watershed moment, theyβre back. Who? IDOL FRET ! Having sprayed the Smokehouse walls with punk in 2026, they return to blastΒ you with loud, snotty, accelerated fun with a capital Fuh.
Most of IDOL FRET experienced it first-hand. There’s something about fast, hard riffs that raises hairs and pumps blood.Β That stuff stays with you. IDOL FRET delivers an eclectic mix of Punk tunes, some familiar, some deep cuts. What they have in common is a vibe, a sensibility, an attitude. A righteous two fingers to The Man (or, at least, your parents). IDOL FRET hopes to give fans and newbies alike a history of the who, what, why, when and how the songs fitted into the big picture.
