There's some guys on here with a pretty good knowledge of music... Anyone help me out here I'm trying to remember this band name and it's keeping me up at night.. one of the first LP's I bought when I was working my first job as a teenager.
Aussie punk or surf punk band.
Late 80's early 90's.
I believe from melbourne, could be wrong though.
Record had red tones, hand drawn writing / collage style I think.
Record opened with sample from the early aussie show Matlock Police, someone on the radio saying "VKC are you there Shirl, over?" or something similar.
Anyone?
None are from Melbourne.
Melbourne was pretty grungy in late 80s. Can only think of Cosmic Psychos
Yaeh I know. I was just self indulgently posting a few bands that I loved at the time that was seeing in my search.
Not Cosmic Psychos or Moffs.
Not as well known as any I posted.
This should have been the first record. God are up there with Nirvana.
Nope none of them. Red LP, matlock police sample.. That's all I can remember. Earlier than the meanies & less well known..
I don't remember to be honest - but I've lived fairly lightly in the past, just given away a large chunk of my stuff and gone travelling. Do that a few times and you don't have very much left. I have one large suitcase which covers 0-18 years old and that's about it.
As for that particular LP I don't even remember if it's any good - who knows I might listen for 5 minutes and think it's terrible. It's just bugging me. I've been onto my sister, who gave me the tape in the first place (before I bought the LP) and now it's bugging her too..
