Often tagged as garage-rock revivalists, the Fleshtones like to mix the fuzz-guitar and Farfisa organ sounds of that genre with rockabilly, '50s and '60s R&B, and surf into a potent retro stew the group likes to call "Super Rock." The group formed in 1976 in Queens with vocalist/keyboardist Peter Zaremba, guitarist Keith Streng, bassist Jan Marek Pukulski, and drummer Bill Milhizer, and aimed to return rock and roll to the simplicity and unself-consciousness of the '50s and early-'60s.
The group fit nicely into New York's punk and new wave scene, and an early single, "American Beat," attracted the attention of independent label Red Star and, in time, I.R.S. The group's debut EP, Up-Front, was released in 1980 and was followed by their first full-length album, Roman Gods, and Blast Off!, an unreleased studio album recorded for Red Star in 1978.
In 1983 the group produced Hexbreaker, widely regarded as the Fleshtones' finest album. The band continued to record through the '80s and released Powerstance in 1992 and Beautiful Light in 1994. While the group's popularity dipped under the radar in the last half of the '90s, in 2003 the group bounded back when they were signed to the potent indie label Yep Roc Records and released one of their best albums, Do You Swing. An equally solid follow-up, Beachhead, was issued in 2005, and was produced in part by Detroit garage rock kingpin Jim Diamond. Fleshtones side projects include Keith Streng's band Full Time Men, which featured R.E.M. guitarist Peter Buck, and Peter Zaremba's Love Delegation.
The Fleshtones continue to record and perform with a wit, passion, and energy that few bands can top.

A Bruxelles, on est beaucoup de vieux se souvenant de ce concert archi-mythique au Plan K en 1983!!!
Ils restent super, les mêmes aussi à part le bassiste qui les rejoint plus tard et qui jouait dans un autre groupe sympa Jason and the Scorchers, vu d'ailleurs vers la même époque....

Saw them 6 times in France in the 90s ! Once had a couple of beers with the band after the gig. They were all very cool but I remember Peter Zaremba wasn't really pleased with the show and was a bit moody.
