Bucharest never ceases to amaze me. The Romanian capital has become a hotbed for garage punk’n’roll, with a seemingly endless stream of high-energy releases emerging in recent years. Following the footsteps of The Nuggers, Las Poftas, and Cold Brats, Fuck You! Dracu arrives with a debut that’s every bit as wild and defiant as you’d hope.

Their seven-track EP blends catchy garage-rock hooks with the raw clatter of traditional punk. The buzzing guitars, pounding rhythms, and shouted—almost Oi!-style—vocals give the record a gritty, unpolished charm. Every song bursts with energy, gets in, and gets out before it overstays its welcome. It’s the kind of music that thrives on simplicity, but it’s executed with enough flair to leave a lasting impression.

What really sets Fuck You! Dracu apart is their playful, zero-fucks-given attitude. The lyrics, all sung in Romanian, have a comical and almost childish edge—at least as far as Google Translate and my Romanian pals can tell me. But that’s part of the appeal. Not every punk release needs to take itself too seriously, and this record reminds us how fun and irreverent the genre can be.

The lo-fi, DIY aesthetic carries over into the zero-frills artwork and their witty, charismatic stage presence. Everything about Fuck Off And Dracu screams pure, Transilvanian fun. If you’re into garage punk with an outcast attitude and a knack for catchy, no-nonsense tunes, this EP is a must-listen.
