Not the death metal band..Drag City reissued an album by these guys recently which is absolutely incredible..three black guys (which would possibly make them the first black punk band??) circa 1974/75 from Detroit in Michigan, who sound like a bridge between MC5 type stuff and some sort of Wipers/Bad Brains thing. Amazing stuff.

Which shops? I'm heading in now.

 

[cesspooldublin]

Tower had it, I'm pretty sure I saw it in Freebird, and I haven't been in there yet but I expect Road would have it.

 

[dregin]

Nice one. Cheers.

 

[rotten tropics]

was looking for it earlier,definitely not in road,was looking in tower but got distracted by those royal trux reissues and wasted a silly amount of money...could be copies in there though

 

[pain of death]

Wikipedia says two of the lads are now in Lambsbread, as in the noise rock band?!

edit: Ah, there's a reggae band called Lambsbread too..

Freebird are all sold out, but they ordered more yesterday that'll be in tomorrow or the next day.
