Bio:
VCPS consists of four boys from Falun, Sweden. They have been playing dangerous rock since the fall of 2007.A bunch of demo discs has been spread around the globe and in late 2010 they released their debut album, Restless, Young, Hungry and Free, on cassette tape(!?). It received a lot of attention due to the outdated carrier format. The album was later released on CD by Italian label Street Symphonies. In 2013 the album We Spread Diseases was released by the bands self-founded label, Dangerous Rock Records, accompanied by a 7inch vinyl single.Both albums were released using the band name VIETCONG PORNSÜRFERS.Except a lot of shows in Sweden and Scandinavia, VCPS have been wasting their health traveling the roads throughout all of Europe several times. They have appeared on festivals like Peace & Love Festival and Getaway Rock Festival.To see the band live have been described as a boot in the groin, but still pleasurable. No silly stuff, VCPS knows how to take the stage and deliver kick-ass rock tunes in tight punk style.
Album:
You can change your band name or, in the case of Sweden’s Viet Cong Porn Surfers, merely shorten it to VCPS. But does that change the band’s sound? For some bands it does. Break up to make up a new band with a new name. Not so much with VCPS.They’re still doing their lively version of punk inspired, bit sleazified, melodic hard rock on this six song self-titled EP. Actually, I think these songs lean more towards basic rock, melodic and darn catchy. Good melodies with harmony,notably in the vocal arrangements and guitar. Supporting this is some true groove, veering close to the danceable kind. All Bad Things strikes that chord. Overall, VCPS sounds a bit more stripped down, somewhat raw, which only supports the punk rock side of things. That punkish protest sound comes through in Yes, I Can, yet still sounds somewhat like AOR. Possibly even more so in the AOR vein is Hold Me, a slightly subdued song, perhaps nearing a ballad. So what’s the goal here? The end game? A reinvention of themselves? I’m not sure. VCPS is basically the same band with the same sound, and they still sound pretty good. Maybe they just needed us to sit up and take notice. I’m guessing there’s also more tune on the horizon.
