about

Ice Tropic is PROUD to unearth a long-thought lost single from Detroit proto-punk garage band, The Bent Magnets with their sole document: the 1969 single Party, and it's equally intense B-Side, Credit Card. It's recorded intensity also proved to be fatal, as the band broke up mere minutes after recording stopped. With 2 vocalists shrieking with infernal vigor, a guitar and drums combo that'll melt your face, and a crisp bass player keeping it down, it is clear to see how this influenced fellow Michiganders, The Stooges, MC5, as well as ? & the Mysterians. It should be noted that the A-Side, Party, was groundbreaking as one of the earliest known recordings of what is now widely known as "bi panic". Unsigned, unfiltered, uncut, unadulterated, unclean, unkempt, uncanny, unnecessary. This, is The Bent Magnets.
