With one of the best cover sleeves we’ve seen all year, Vaguess have announced The Bodhi Collection, a compilation of twenty tracks taken from previous cassette and other self-releases from around the Los Angeles area. Mixing proto-punk riffs, garage sneer and the attitude of heyday-era Ramones, the songs are two-minute nuggets caked with bonehead attitude and crackling distortion.

Vaguess (actually pronounced “Vegas”) is the moniker of rock and roller Vinny Vaguess, who has a mean way with titles too, (You’re) Only Happy When You Bleed, Sinkpisser, I’m Gonna Stab Myself, Cherry Flavored Chunks… you get the picture.

Have a listen to the elemental Danny’s Park.
