ratcharge Haha! Can totally imagine this kind of grind freak aussie. Probably not your average Rupture fan listening to Circle Pit.
While on tour down under with De Høje Hæle in 2011 we played this open air festival with Circle Pit and The Oh Sees on line up. Don't remember much of their show thou, unfortunately.
WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO AND WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT?
Emil M. Antonowsky This is an amazing album. I sort of remember their myspace page had a louder sounding version of another trick. Saw Angie in August 2024 in Sydney--amazing live set.

Was listening to the s/t 7" tonight actually. Great band. Definitely bought from Lammie's Don't Buy Records distro on the strength of his write-up.
Missed this, posted some months back- Spatulas!
Heart Full of Sorrow is a fantastic album and I think I forgot or never knew that you put out the YJ stuff. Amazing! 
Creteens rule so hard. This one's a fave: "Enjoy Your Life"
Burn the school, kill the teacher!
I have a funny Benji story I'll share with you someday if I get a few too many soda waters in me.
Nathan Loud yeah those creteens singles are great. When he first got to Florida he was completely freaked out by lizards and would freeze in his tracks anytime one would cross his path on the sidewalk, which is pretty constant. Benji stories always crack me up so would love to hear them. We haven't talked in a long time. Been thinking about him a lot lately and need to reach out.
I need to also truthfully say that this jam is the shit.
Why has it not been sampled by all the hip hop legends!?!?
"Discovered" Blue Orchids from Reading Brix Smith's book- formed when Martin Bramah left The Fall very early on - '79. Some tenuous similarities to The Fall but really spread out into its own thang especially as it was on again off again with various members but I have dipped into all periods and find it to be very compelling music.
Kinda reminds of Flying Nun stuff from around the same time.
paperhose Saw Angie in August 2024 in Sydney--amazing live set.
Didnt know they were doing solo stuff. Gotta check it out.
Allez Al Awesome, thanks! And yeah, what would we do without Lammie!
Speaking of aussie stuff, i can allways go back to this record.
Gonna go on a long Evan Dando/Lemonheads spree today. Some of the best guitar pop ever penned. Saw this recently and was unfamiliar — love Dando reading the lyrics on tv like a true pro.

Joe Gibbs & The Professionals - African Dub Chapter Two LP
Count Ossie & The Mystic Revelation Of Rastafari - Grounation 3xLP
Bay Area shoppes have seemingly struck the motherload / gone on a reggae raid. Managed to nab these Jamaican OGs and am now suffering from a severe case of couchlock.
V/A - East LP
Latest UK regional DIY/Punk comp added to the pile [this one's Lincolnshire]. Plenty have already absorbed this shite via turn of the century blog downloads, but I only recently dove into this sea and am stacking these comps with ferocity. Familiar names here [The Cigarettes, Pseudo Existors] but don't let that dissuade you.
Osamu Kitajima - Benzaiten LP
Figured since I'm close to 50 and an asshole, I should probably have a copy of this.
Happy Mondays - Hallelujah 12"
Wearing a big hat that makes me look like Toad from Super Mario. An incredibly skinny nude woman sleeps in a folding chair on my smoking terrace. I'm eating cold fries with brown sauce and will likely die by morning. Huzzah.
I don’t have many CDs in my car & I couldn’t get my Bluetooth to sync up so it’s been A Love Obscene but especially this track
Just got this new release by a local experimental musician reccomended. "Loop-based yodeling with strong homoerotic undertones". Two trakcs in and enjoying so far...
So far this morning at work before anyone else has showed up to commandeer the stereo-
RMFC - “Club Hits” - I don’t know much about egg punk or think I liked it, but I like this. And they were fantastic at Gonerfest.
Heavy Mother II - kind of hard to go wrong here, this record really lines up for me. Love it. Dig the far out moments that to me evoke Hawkwind(flute). Which lead me to….
Hawkwind - “Live at the BBC” - such a killer collection of cuts from the band at the peak of their power.

The Walthamstow Zeros
Mystery_Ship RMFC - “Club Hits” - I don’t know much about egg punk or think I liked it, but I like this. And they were fantastic at Gonerfest.
yeah I got to see them on the west coast twice and was really blown away. Great band and a killer LP
While they great egg punk debate rages on I'm over here trying to figure out if my mother was a punk or not?
COUNTER INTUITS - Sheets Of Hits
COUNTER INTUITS - Monosyllabilly
The Counter Intuits sound like a lo-fi sonic collage, a dusty vinyl skipping between crooked guitars and lurching rhythms. Ron House’s voice is a visionary rasp leading the chaos with odd coherence, like a pirate radio station broadcasting from a parallel universe.
- The Gories - The Shaw Tapes. I mean, what needs to be said.
- The Bobbyteens - Cruisin' For a Bruisin'. I don't know why always assumed this would be pony considering the personal what are on it. It's class, and I'm a fool.
- Lauer - Answers 2 Trouble. It's like an Italo New Order. Spirited, super catchy and probably to the tastes of no-one else here. Hell, I don't listen to much that sounds like this. Lauer's great though. He was in that thrashcore band Destroyer in the 00s.
- The Spells - The Age of Backwards. It's Mary Timony and Carrie Brownstein. A precursor to Wild Flag, good indie stuff.
5 Deadly Venoms of Brooklyn mixtape. An all-timer. Tony Touch, Evil Dee, PF Cuttin', DJ Premier and Mister Cee all kill it.
This record was tucked away in my dad’s collection and profoundly upset me when I was a kid. As a deeply disturbed adult I very much have been digging it lately.
Johnny Sick Best band! Can anyone comment on once rumored follow up 2x LP?
Randall Wow! Now that would be amazing. The Counter Intuits LPs are some of the best stuff he’s ever done. Modern classics.
Randall I was supposed to do a third Counter Intuits LP. Ron was having some writers block so he sent me a single to put out in the meantime. Last I spoke to him he was still on a writing hiatus. I hope there is more to come though.
get outta here! those LP's are so good... hope he finds the love for it and can get back in the Counter Intuits rhythm again

Tonight’s spins so far-
Spits - first LP- saw they played Vancouver this week and made me reminisce about seeing them 20 years ago. Great record, I H8 Pussies is and all time punker
Great Plains - Sums It Up - mostly really dig this one, but for sure sounds like a band going in a bunch of different directions. Born in a Barn is my go LP to for them.
Gibson Bros - the Man Who Loved Couch Dancing- Perfect LP. Perfect band. Love the A-Bones clip. How many times has Don Howland recorded “Broke Down Engine”?
Revisiting 70’s CLEPUNK again…
- Edited
Human Eye - 4:Into Unknown ( Goner) Human Eye's last full length and Timmy's proggiest. at this point this might be my favorite HE album. it's got the Timmy stomping fuzzfests like "Juicy Jaw" AND the stun guitar prog epics like "Lone Wolf" and "Pluto."
Redd Kross - Nuerotica 2xLp ( Merge) I never knew this got re-released with the Spinhead Sessions demos until reading the book. Been on pretty steady rotation since I got it a few weeks ago. Demos are fun, but not necessarily essential unless you are a big fan of the band or album ( I am both)
Heavy Mother II - S/T ( Total Punk) So good to hear these songs from my turn table after having mp3's for a while now. Proto punk fun. I always feel like spinning my Tommy Jay records after listening to this. Wish I could see Corporate Retreat set with Runyon and Derr in the backing band. they will be so perfect
Lavender Flu - Standing in the Sand by the Pool (ITR) still! this album is so good.
The latest Son of Dribble record keeps finding its way back to the top of my playlist the past month of so.
My man decided to pull a random record off my shelf and grabbed this one today. Almost forgot how good it was!
Really like that Workers Comp LP after seeing a few of you post about it here. Gotta pick that one up.
Anyone into Adrian Orange? Got turned onto him by my pals at Hex Enduction in Seattle and can't stop listening to his two LPs over the past few years:
- Don't know the whole story but seems like all the PNW indie/punk crew got together and recorded a "proper" album with him.
- I heard this one second, but I think it's become my fave.
filthqueen666 I still play this one all the time. Originally bought it from the band when they came through New Mexico with Osees, probably 2010. I remember that I had lost a lot of interest in music at that point in my life. TC shocked me out of my doldrums. I formed a new band almost right after the show.
