The 5678's - Bomb The Twist
Review by Branden Silva
The album Bomb The Twist by 5678's is a high-energy, rockabilly-inspired collection of songs that will get listeners moving and grooving. The band's signature sound is a mix of classic rock and roll, surf rock, and garage punk, with driving beats, catchy hooks, and plenty of attitude.
From the opening track "Woohoo" to the closing number "Surfin' Bird," Bomb The Twist is a non-stop party that never lets up. The 5678's deliver their songs with raw, unbridled energy and a sense of fun that is infectious. The lyrics are often playful and tongue-in-cheek, with references to pop culture and retro Americana.
The standout tracks on the album include "Bomb The Twist," which features a driving bassline and a catchy chorus that will have listeners singing along, and "Jungle Music," a high-octane romp that showcases the band's instrumental prowess. Other highlights include "The Barracuda," a surf rock-inspired instrumental that features some impressive guitar work, and "Three Cool Chicks," a fun, upbeat track that celebrates female empowerment.

About The 5678's
Garage rock'n'roll band from Tokyo, Japan. Initially formed in 1986 as a quartet by sisters Sachiko (Drums) and Yoshiko "Ronnie" Fujiyama (Vocals) along with Rico (Guitar), and Yoshie (Bass). However, Yoshie was replaced by Kikako prior to recording their demo ("Golden Hits of..."). In 1990 Rico and Kikako left the band to form Sleaze Sisters. They were replaced by Akiko Omo on bass and saxophone player Gaku was added later. In 1992 they became a trio prior to touring Australia. Bass guitar was taken over again by Akiko, who also previously played in the band during the lineup changes in the early 90's. Guitarist Aya joined the band for several months in 1995. Yoshiko "Yama" Yamaguchi took over bass duties from Akiko before their first big Japanese tour in 1996. Ronnie briefly took a break from the band in 1997 and released the solo single "Coney Island". The band toured extensively during 1998 and 2002 but did not produce any new recorded material.
The band appeared in the movie "Kill Bill: Volume 1" in 2003 after director Quentin Tarantino heard their CD in a Tokyo clothing shop in 2002. The final film features the studio track "Woo Hoo" and it also appears on the soundtrack. The DVD bonus features include a full live performance of "Walk Like Jayne Mansfield" and "I'm Blue" that were recorded during the filming of the movie. The band during the filming was Ronnie, Yama, and Sachiko, however, Akiko played bass on the actual studio recording of "Woo Hoo" used in the film.
In 2004 Yama left the band and Akiko returned to play bass. However, there was a brief period of touring with Saki on bass between the switch. After that the band did not release any more material and only occasionally played live. The band has gained momentum again after releasing some live and studio recordings on in 2011. Since then they have been mostly been releasing covers, older unreleased studio recordings, and re-recorded/alternate versions of older material through . Some of the material features Akiko on bass and some features Yama on bass. In 2018 they released a song for the video game Steel Rats. A single containing songs recorded with was released in 2019.

Well now, this is not your typical rock-a-billy revival ensemble is it. If I had to venture a guess as to their raison d'etre I'd most likely make a go with hardcore femdom rebel punk-a-billy trio of badass attitude that don't give a single fuck wither you like 'em or not because their doing the thing they love to do most, banging their shang-a-langs to the boogaloo with pidgin English vocals and stepping like the Supreme's.
Buddha help me, I love 'em!
