Fuck It Rock It is the great new album by the Stilettos. It’s got drums that sound like a gun going off, buzzsaw guitars to cut down any tree and a voice spewing out lyrics like there’s no tomorrow. To top it off, they invited a few close friends, who added some screeching Philicordia organ and wailing saxophone.

Everything was recorded very professionally, but fortunately that didn’t get in the way of capturing their raw live sound.

Fuck It Rock It meanders between short bursts of high energy garage punk and teeth grinding mid-tempo trash.

The making this record was a collaboration between different artistic forces, battling against mediocrity and poor taste.

Behind the controls was DNA, who in recent years became a friend of theStilettos. He generously donated his 20+ years of experience in the field during the three sessions it took to record the album, which was done at Studio Moskou and Old Skool Studios in Utrecht. Together with his partner in crime and fulltime sound wizzard Peer Rave the whole thing was mixed and mastered in a tiny livingroom in Eindhoven with just enough air to breathe, also known as Custom Recording.

The cover was done by their friends at Dog and Pony, real cool guys with good taste, who know how to catch your eye.

ARTIST BIO

Stilettos are a three-piece rock 'n' roll band that started in a small country town in the Dutch bible belt. They have a very broad musical taste, ranging from pre-war blues, gospel, free-jazz, 60's garage rock, punk and hip-hop to country, bluegrass, world music and pop. They like music with some historic significance, which could be anything, as long as it's good, which is very subject to taste and mood. They're not interested in watered down versions of the real thing.

Armand, Henk-Jan and Barry live in various small towns on de Veluwe and Utrecht, where they work on farms, write books and theatre plays and enjoy life with their families and loved ones.

Stilettos have been around for ten years and this is their fourth longplayer, their second for Tocado.

Throughout the years they’ve become well known for their energetic-stop-’n-go live performance and good manners, although some might call that last feature boring...
