About

After having released two mixtapes of Boogalooesque interpretations of hip-hop sampled favourites and 80’s anthems, Karate Boogaloo have released Carn the Boogers on College of Knowledge Records, years after its recording back in 2017. Unsurprisingly, the album is named after the fan cry that the Boogers invented themselves; one which echoed throughout the amphitheatre as loyal fans flung their boots to the sky at Meredith 2019, and that became an unspoken mutual bond between audience members squashed like sardines at Northside Records’ annual tribute to funk-legend James Brown on Christmas night at The Curtin.

The LP itself cruises through deep-funk, cinematic soul and library music with 12 tracks that flow into each other with effortless ease and with titles as noteworthy as the album. Marriage For All or None At All is the opening track of the LP, the most dance-floor ready complete with washy synth-lines, arpeggiating electric guitar and an up-tempo groove.

In all, Carn The Boogers is a captivating debut LP from Karate Boogaloo that reminds us that the four-piece band have truly carved their own unique sound full of drunken guitar lines, wishy-washy synths and syncopated stabs from bass and drums alike. Here’s to a 2020 with new KB music! - Verve Zine
