Fuzz Club is a London based independent record label that focuses on raw, experimental rock 'n' roll. Influenced by genres such as psychedelia, shoegaze, noise, garage, blues, folk and experimentation. The label started in rural Norway during the 24 hour darkness of the Arctic winter and emerged onto the scene in 2012 with their compilation album "The Reverb Conspiracy". This annual release captures the essence of today's underground music scene.

With over 40 releases and around 20 artists under their belt, Fuzz Club has worked with renowned names like Anton Newcombe, Goat, Alan Vega, The Black Angels, Dead Skeletons, A Place to Bury Strangers and The Underground Youth. They believe in putting as much energy and art into the presentation of their records as the bands do into their music. Collaborating with visual artists allows them to create unique and collectible album covers and vinyl.

In addition to their regular releases, Fuzz Club offers super limited edition deluxe versions of select albums. These hand painted, stamped and sealed editions are considered works of art themselves. As a distributor for Fuzz Club records, Cargo Records ensures that these exceptional releases reach fans worldwide.

Drawing from minimal krautrock repetition, pounding industrial techno and EBM, Lisbon trio Maquina. (‘Machine’) explore the boundaries of these genres with force on their second album Prata (‘Silver’), on Fuzz Club. Across the album’s six tracks, they carve out an adrenaline-fuelled sound that's equally suited to dark, sweaty back rooms and the dance floor. Though Maquina.’s sound might have the club in its sights – Prata follows their aptly-titled 2023 EP Dirty Tracks For Clubbing – this is an organic dance music that’s equally punk and psychedelic, played by a guitar-drums-bass power trio formation firing on all cylinders, without a synthesiser in sight. Instead, the Maquina. M.O. is relentless machine-like drums and primal vocal outbursts (Halison), scuzzy floor-shaking bass riffs (Tomás) and piercing guitar noise and FX (João).Having already amassed a notorious reputation in Portugal for the all-out energy of their live shows, it’s no mean feat to replicate that in the studio but on Prata they have managed exactly that – owing to a creative approach largely rooted in improvisation, both on stage and in the studio. Describing Prata, recorded and co-produced by Carlos de Jesus (Sunflowers) at Arda Recorders, they write: “This album was composed spontaneously in the studio throughout the year 2023. It's music of colour, delving into depths and dimensions that resonate with scale and contrast. Pushing sounds together to make noise and pushing noise together to make sounds. Emphasising textures that evoke feelings and soundscapes rather than relying solely on textual narratives. The music breathes life into auditory canvases, painting sonic panoramas pushing into a world of tactile sensation and immersive experiences.”
