CENTIPEDE HORROR (1982); DVD
DVD, Hong Kong, (Frolic Pictures - Grindhouse series) New
After his sister dies under mysterious circumstances while on vacation, Wai Lun decides to take matters into his own hands. Soon enough, he discovers a family curse, battling wizards, and centipedes — lots and lots of centipedes. Written by Suet Ming Chan (making this one of the only Hong Kong Category III horror movies written by a woman) and filled with creepy crawlies, melodrama, evil spirits and insect-barfing, CENTIPEDE HORROR is a true discovery for adventurous horror-fiends. Never released legitimately on home video in the U.S., This DVD is repressed from the only 35mm film print in existence. Also of note, there is a great bit of moody 80s synthesizer work in here, which sounds awfully familiar to something from El-p's 'Fantastic Damage' album.
LUTHER THE GEEK; DVD
DVD (1989), New
As a young child Luther The Geek or "The Freak" witnesses a band of men goading a geek (a man who bites off chicken's heads and drinks the blood) into performing. In the ensuing hullabaloo, Luther bites his lip and likes the taste of blood. Flash forward some thirty years and a parole board is meeting to discuss Luther's release. It seems the cheeky blighter has been murdering folk in the meantime. A dopey parole board trainee sides with the liberals and so Luther is unleashed, except now he has a special pair of customised metal teeth. Luther then proceeds to "bite the heads off" of many hapless folk until the tense ending. This movie is most notable for it's bare dialogue, whole stretches pass without a sound. Most of the audio is composed of Luther clucking insanely like a chicken.

NO NECK BLUES BAND; The Math of Crack 7" (1995)
7" single (1995), Used
Critically considered to be one of NNCK's best early recordings, The Math of Crack/The Mouth of Gack 7" single from 1995 was released on the brilliant "New world of sound" label and hasn't ever recieved a re-issue. Certainly one for the psych/noise fans....

1996 experimental / noise release from US duo 'Ron of Japan' featuring electronics, tapes and voice. This is limited to 500 copies, but apparently this edition, released in a clear sleeve, is limited to only 5 copies??

SMELL AND QUIM; Scum-Grief 7" flexi-disc (1989)
7" uncut flexi-disc (1989), Used
Flexi from 1989, an early one. Nasty stapled cover displaying a cock split in half. I expected the more crazy and wack S&Q, but this is closer in nature to their rather untypical and subdued second album, The Jissom Killers. Here Milovan and Paul sound like as if ART ENSEMBLE OF CHICAGO were covering METGUMBNERBONE, or something. Demented flutes (or whatever it might be) wailing sadly to the steady beat of a distant kettle-drum, with various rattling sounds appearing along the way. Eerie lobotomized march music. Great sound too (for being a flexi that is).

FAITH NO MORE; Super Hero 7"
7" Single (2015), New
‘Superhero’ is the first single proper from the 'Sol Invictus' record, and sports all the archetypes Faith No More became known for throughout the 80s and 90s. The pulverizing, hypnotic “Superhero” marries typically eerie keyboard work with razor sharp guitars, a gritty slog of a distorted bassline, and Mike Patton’s inimitable mixture of unearthly screeches and croons.
SMOKE 'EM IF YOU GOT 'EM; DVD
Special Edition DVD (1988), New
SMOKE ‘EM IF YOU GOT ‘EM is a long lost post-apocalyptic Aussie cult classic – a nuke and puke masterpiece for the post-punk crowd – set slap bang in the middle of Melbourne’s 80’s underground music scene. Starring Nique Needles (DOGS IN SPACE). In the smouldering devastation of post nuclear bomb-blasted Melbourne, a periscope protruding from a pile of rubble leads three desperate scavengers to a subterranean fall-out shelter. They muscle their way in, only to discover a raging party in a converted wine cellar, celebrating the Big Meltdown. There’s a band, booze, sex, drugs and a horde of sweat-soaked revellers partying like there is no tomorrow… which for these poor radiation-drenched end-of-the-worlders there isn’t. What choice do the scroungers have but to join in?
This special "Bong and Bang Cocktail" edition comes with over 3 hours of extra features including commentaries, interviews, music video’s short films and more…
