Rasco

What would the Beach Boys and The Cramps sound like in Hebrew? Well, like Rasco. The trio from Tel Aviv (named after the song »At the Rasco« by Israeli underground musician Charlie Megira, who died in Berlin) revives the golden era of surf rock with a certain garage attitude, plenty of psychedelic weirdness, a good dose of Mediterranean sunshine, and pastel colours faded by the sun. After their 2021 self-titled debut, they followed up this year with the significantly darker, shoegazier »Dmaot« – which fittingly means »tears« in Hebrew. Rasco’s recordings combine guitars with contemplations of nature and dreamscapes, where the sun and beach are contrasted by moonlight and desert sand, offering an enveloping sound that lets us drift away with the winds – but of course we’ll back in time for their set at Pop-Kultur.
