Whoops I thought this was Tex Perkin’s new project (nope, that’s The Ape). Anyways, Apes is a Ballarat-raised meat ‘n’ taters rock and roll. The meat’s overcooked and the taters are soggy on Napalm, with songwriting chops you’d expect from a local high school battle of the bands. I’m guessing they’re young but? Still a chance for them to worship at the altar of Lemmy and evolve into something worthwhile.
