Some Canadian shit I wanna see

Sturgeons- punk rock virgins
Two men laughing collection
Existers- telex love
Hunger project- assembly
Dry heeves- what's inside

smudge I'm from Los Angeles and I've never seen one in the wild. Friedl had a copy that he picked up at an estate sale. He sold it. It always went for good money, but prices recently have been up into the stratosphere. Obviously, it was self-released and my feeling is that Su got no distro on it and it was mostly friends and fans who were able to get copies. I won't say who, but it was someone associated with LAFMS, and they knew her. Said she might have been on the spectrum. Unbelievably talented individual whose refusal to even discuss this period in time has only added to her mystique.

That record was such a 180 from Suburban Lawns. It just shows one how she could effortlessly navigate the avant-garde.

It's similar to Lesa Aldridge's Barbarian 7". I have seen copies. Friends and bandmates of hers in Memphis have them.

Speaking of LAFMS, those first couple Decayes lps deserve to get reissued.

    dirty knobber Good call. There's a bunch of LAFMS-related releases that would be of interest to people on this board if nobody else. I know Neef's first release was only available for purchase on converted cigarette vending machines on UCLA's campus and Wacko's.

    Charlotte was one of the best writers from this scene too.

      Ryan Leach got into this brilliant Frank Kogan release while familiarizing myself with all things Pressler (Dark Red Sweet) some years ago. Would definitely add this into the convo of why hasn't this been reissued

        terminalsunset I hear (from a pal that did layout for the original versions) that the two surviving members of karp are working on reissues. but that was 2-3 years ago... we'll see!

        Red Menace Murder City Wrecks - Get Wrecked - was this ever on vinyl? I have it on CD. Deserves a ressiue regardless.

          Mystery_Ship Ron's Obsessed cd is being released very soon via Zaius Tapes, available the rough the Siltbreeze Bandcamp site; siltbreeze.bandcamp.com

          I'd say by April, stay tuned

          Another cool way to lose money would be to reissue the We Couldn't Agree On A Title comp from '81 w/ Walking Floors, Colin Potter, Instant Automatons, Digital Dinosaurs, and other freaks that nobody remembers.

          Seems crazy this has never been released.

          Dandelion Abortion - Paul Mahern's post-Zero Boys band (pre-Datura Seeds tho). Every few years I hear that Secretly Canadian will do a reissue but it doesn't happen. Shoplifter and other tracks are jams. They also do a fun version of the Osmonds 'Crazy Horses'.

          Mystery_Ship still kicking myself for buying the CD of No Old Guy instead of the LP when that came out.

          Rockathon, so it's presumably stuck in Pollard Purgatory.

          Bob Petric's guitar work on that one is fantastic.

            televod oh wait, it only ever came out on CD. Duh. I feel like I knew that already.
