Ketamines

The final installment of Ketamines’ four-part 7-inch series finds everyone’s favorite spaced-out punks straying from the garage, discovering amphetamines and taking that swing into the sunshine of romance and power pop. Along the same gracious lines, B-side “Always Small” is self-affirmation in sugar-pill form. 
Parts one through three of the series were released by Pleasence Records, Leaning Trees Records and Hosehead Records, and are available individually from those labels in frighteningly small quantities. Collect all four to complete a grand, mind-bending image of magic by artist Felix Morel. 
 
“Ketamines have found the delight in the details, adding to their pop-tarted tracks with fuzzed-out blasts, cartoon-indebted backing tracks, moody guitar washes and synth stabs that all seem pulled from their personal obsessions, then melted, sewn and stapled together into music that feels as personally seamless as it is aesthetically schizophrenic.” —Raven Sings the Blues 
“Ketamines are nearly impossible to pin down: lo- / no-fi garage rock that’s occasionally poppy / catchy, sometimes glittery, often ass-kickin’ and always, at the very least, engrossing.” —Gumshoe Grove 
“Lots of sound effects like when a person materializes in a He-Man cartoon.” —Vice
