Clocking in at a blistering 3 minutes and 11 seconds, "Hurricane" by Australian underground veteran Ben Gel is a right-to-the-point, aggressively energetic blast of garage-fueled punk and hard rock. Stripping the sound down to the absolute essentials of guitars, drums, bass, and a snarling vocal delivery, the track captures the raw, unpolished essence of classic Aussie pub rock, drawing thrilling comparisons to the likes of Amyl & the Sniffers, Cosmic Psychos, The Chats, and Rose Tattoo. Yet, beneath its unapologetically loud and abrasive exterior lies a fiercely catchy hook, perfectly encapsulating the gritty ethos of an artist who has been a mainstay of the Adelaide punk scene for over two decades. With a resume boasting nearly 1,000 live gigs and shared stages with punk legends like Mudhoney and TSOL, Gel delivers a no-frills, high-octane anthem that proves exactly why critics hail him as an underground rocker who truly deserves to be a household name.
