GOD were the seminal Melbourne group consisting of Joel Silbersher, Tim Hemensley, Matty Whittle and Sean Greenway.
This new edition of 1000 comes on translucent-blue vinyl with blue/black cover art and insert. (Different to the February sold out release.) Due to the crazy sell-out of the Feb release, these new editions surely will be gone soon.
This track was their 1987 debut single, written by the band's Joel Silbersher when he was just 15 years old. It has since become a punk rock classic, one of the most enduring songs of the Aussie underground.Characterised by a simple descending guitar riff, a driving rhythm section and the impassioned roar of Silbersher's vocal, 'My Pal' is ferocious but catchy and possesses an intoxicating, loose energy. An archetypal grunge song released years before grunge went mainstream.The single came out on Au Go Go Records, a small Melbourne label run out of a shop of the same name by Bruce Milne.Members of GOD would go on to make more seminal music in their careers in bands like The Powder Monkeys, Hoss and Tendrils. https://www.abc.net.au/listen/doublej/music-reads/features/the-story-of-gods-my-pal-an-enduring-australian-underground-clas/10272494

The third album by BLOWERS, BLOWMANIA, is a raw and ferocious blast of garage punk straight from Naarm/Melbourne, Australia. With a four-pronged vocal assault and an unrestrained attitude, the band delivers pure intensity and irreverence at every turn. Inspired by The Reatards, The Spits, and Wipers, BLOWMANIA channels the untamed spirit of punk at its most chaotic and unapologetically loud. Prepare yourself for a sonic explosion!
Sleeve artwork fully illustrated by Luiz Berger.
Welcome to BLOWMANIA – one wild ride of a record that sees BLOWERS returning to form and upping the ante, turning their blistering vocals and buzzsaw guitar sounds up to maximum levels while adding synth for extra layers and urgency, with some truly warped production touches to top it all off. It’s an all-out attack from opener ‘Wasted On My Own’ to closing track ‘Everybody In This Room Hates Me’. The album delivers full-blown earworms and depraved humour about hospital-prone fans (‘Tony’s In Hospital Again’), drug love (‘Mushrooms On My Mind’), anxiety (‘Nightmares’), lifestyle choices (‘Cigs, Beer and Wine’) and hate-fuelled duets (‘I Hate You All The Time’). BLOWMANIA delivers 11 sharp shots of unapologetic punk adrenaline and is not for the faint-hearted – enter at your own risk!
BLOWMANIA follows up from BLOWERS’ debut self-titled LP released to acclaim and disgust back in 2021, and their second album, Blown Again, in 2023 (both on Chaputa Records/Spooky Records). BLOWMANIA was engineered and mixed by Julian Cue (Street Sweeper, Gut Health, Civic, Screensaver) and mastered by Mikey Young.
BLOWMANIA is due out in April 28, 2025 on Chaputa Records (EU) and Trash Cult Records (Australia).
Tracklist:Side 1
Finally back in print! GOD's My Pal 7" is a genuine Australian rock & roll classic, an iconic slice of teen-punk from a band who dissolved only a bit over a year after the release of the record but has had a huge influence on Australian independent music for 37 years - both the band and record itself and the members' musical diaspora throughout the past three decades.
GOD were the Melbourne teenage quartet made up of Joel Silbersher, Tim Hemensley, Matty Whittle and Sean Greenway. They existed between the years 1986 - 1989 and released this 7" on the Au-go-go label, soon followed by the Rock Is Hell 12" EP and then by their sole full-length LP, For Lovers Only.
Limited coloured vinyl 5LP deluxe foil slipcase
For the first time, The Clouds present all four of their albums in one limited edition collected box set.
RetroActive features all four of The Clouds incredible albums – Penny Century, Octopus, Thunderhead and Futura – most of which are being repressed for the first time since release.
The box set arrives in a deluxe foil box, and each album arrives on limited-edition coloured vinyl.
Recorded within the bleak transitional period immediately prior to the sessions that would now become known as Bermuda Drain, Dominick Fernow sketched out four compositions which can only be framed as “ambient power electronics”.
For the past couple decades, Prurient (along with his revered Hospital Productions imprint) has tackled some of the most challenging aptitudes of experimental music and navigated the baggage that comes along with growth and maturity within the confines of noise.
Ex Used Condition
Some of Fernow’s most destitute works to date, this release captures Prurient at its most vulnerable and sedate, reflective and rapt. Compositions that throw away that past decade of experience, only to start at the foundation of his art.
