THE SYNDICATE "The Egyptian Thing" (Break-A-Way Records BREAK 034)
Brand new limited edition vinyl LP—only 500 copies pressed!
The story of the Syndicate runs along similar lines to countless other rock’n’roll bands in the mid-sixties. They got together to have fun, made some noise on the local teen scene, recorded a couple of singles, made a vain grasp for the brassring, then vanished into thin air—all within the space of two magical years: 1965 and 1966.What makes the Syndicate special, though, is those two hard-to-find singles. “My Baby’s Barefoot” and “The Egyptian Thing”, both released in 1965 and two of the most savage, hot-wired blasts of Punk R&B mayhem ever etched into wax, while the flipside of “The Egyptian Thing,” “She Haunts You” shows the group were equally adept at moody, minor-key material. One year in the making, the “Egyptian Thing” album presents the band’s four A's & B's alongside four unreleased,  same-calibre tracks from the same period, taken from the only surviving acetate and painstakingly remastered at KSL. Added up is an earlier 45 by the Ris-Kays featuring Syndicate front man Bill Rash. An in-depth insert written by Ugly Things' Mike Stax with a cache of photos compiles the legacy of a band, whose 45s are among the top wanted items in their genre, making this release the ultimate Syndicate collection and an unforgettable garage punk adventure.
Factory-sealed from new!
