Messer Chups is an interesting group. An experimental, slightly jazzy, surf rock band from St Petersburg Russia. Led by Oleg Gitarkin they been putting out albums under this moniker since 1999 when it began as a spin-off of his other band Messer für Frau Müller.
Those Messer für Frau Müller albums going back to 1991 and the early Messer Chups albums have a lot of samples and fit more into the experimental category than later Messer Chups releases which are more straight ahead surf rock. A friend turned me onto them around 2015 and I saw them live at the Tiki Oasis fest in 2016. Been hooked ever since.
This was the 2nd of two shows that they played at Streets of London, now just Streets, back in 2018. I had tickets for both but blew off the first night. I regret that a little bit now. I believe that these were their first ever Denver appearances.
If you dig this hit up their band camp pages and grab one of their many releases. Keep supporting independent music, artists, and venues anyway you can these days. Eventually we will get through this current pandemic and will be ready to rock live and in person once again.
Enjoy
