Here's a fantastic compilation of '60s garage punk classics, lots of these tunes will be familiar to many, including the original version of Roky Erikson's 'You're Gonna Miss Me'. Here are the Thirteenth Floor Elevators looking a bit out of place on some teen pop music show...
Other great expressions of teenage disaffection and outsider cool include Green Fuzz, Born Loser and I'm a Living Sickness. This Pebbles album was my introduction to the fuzzed out garage sound and listening to these songs now is a strangely nostalgic affair, remniniscent of my years of teenage lightning, unbridled hedonism and nihilistic abandon (but that was just the good bits).

Join the fuzz army HERE. If you want to hear more of this stuff then get a look at Chocoreve...more '60s punk, psychedelia and freakbeat than I would know what to do with.
