Since emerging five years ago Lumpy and the Dumpers have gone from being
aberrant oddballs to key figures in a whole scene of weirdo punk.
Through Lumpy Records and its influence a grubby morrass of freak punk
has bubbled to the surface in their slimy wake. Those Pickled Fuckers is
the sound of a band distinguishing themselves from a sound they
inspired, not falling into the easiness of a sound, finding new ways to
express their grubby vision while retaining the essential muck that made
people take notice in the first place.
Over seven tracks of gritty discomfort punk, bulging with bodyhorror
blues and puerile manic imprecations, Lumpy and the Dumpers revel and
writhe in the effluvia of life and the rude pangs and oozings of flesh.
Revivifying the dead metaphor of the earworm, these songs burrow snugly
into your brain, distorted sing-song playground melodies, like hell
dimension children's show theme songs, exploding with weird turns and
twists, from the blaring horns of Someone's In The House's paranoiac
stomp, to the wild malfunctioning chiptune screams cutting through
Attention and the sinister whoops and crashes of the oddly mellow
Clatter Song, Those Pickled Fuckers is an album only Lumpy and the
Dumpers could've made.
