Release Notes:
With an average age of 12 and weighing in at a total
of 120 lbs, Brooklyn, New York's Tiny Masters of
Today are certainly one of the youngest and tiniest
bands toughing out the international club scene.
Comprised of siblings Ivan (age 13) and Ada (age 11)
the pre-teen punk duo have been tearing it up in the
UK with two sold-out singles, rave reviews plus BBC
and XFM airplay. Their spring UK tour saw them
playing to packed houses and magazines from Newsweek
(who called their "brief, bratty" songs
"remarkable") to Artrocker (who put them on the
cover and proclaimed them "the future of rock and
roll.") to Guardian, the NME and a host of others
have written about the siblings while none other
than David Bowie declared their first single
ôGenius.ö
Tiny Masters Of Today's debut album Bang Bang Boom
Cake, features 13 songs including their new Mute
Irregulars single Radio Riot. The album was recorded
in New York with production duties handled by
legendary Jon Spencer Blues Explosion drummer
Russell Simins and the Elegant Too. Simins, who
frequently serves as the band's live drummer, plays
on most of the album and there are a number of
surprise cameos and collaborations brought out of
the diverse New York music community Tiny Masters Of
Today are growing up in. Kimya Dawson (Moldy
Peaches), Fred Schneider (the B-52s), Gibby Haynes
(the Butthole Surfers) amongst others all lend their
unique talents to tracks.
With Bang Bang Boom Cake, Tiny Masters of Today have
delivered on the promise of their previous singles,
bringing an outrageous punk pastiche that touches on
everything from hip-hop to techno to good
old-fashioned garage rock. Lyrically, they still
skewer politicians and adults and phonies, but
somehow manage to avoid wallowing in grown-up
cynicism. While there is a serious undercurrent, it
is equally matched with enough hilarity to create
something that is both serious and fun. Serious fun.
