Adenoids 1977-1985

VINYL FORMAT. Contains earliest tracks from '77-'81 plus tracks from the Terse releases Ear Bitten & Clean, the long lost side 3 tape, Blubberknife, Cheesecake and various other tracks from '83-'85. To describe this treasure it is best to state what Tom Ellard had to say: 'And here we have it - the ultimate produce of the new millennium. A box of vinyl discs with music from as much as thirty years ago. Could something express any less faith in the future? My guess is that we seek to capture some "purity" that has since been encrusted with quibbles. It's a hopeless fetish that leads in an ever contracting spiral -- music is born continuously and defies attempts to capture it in decorative tombs. Nevertheless. We have here a very decorative tomb. Music made from 1977 onwards by people who would be identified for a time as "Severed Heads." Much is by Richard Fielding who left in 1982. Some by Andrew Wright, gone in 1980. Some by Bradbury, left in 1985, Deering also. In each case, the music has been taken from the best copy, cleaned only as much as needed and organized to fit onto long-playing vinyl. It is ancient, funny, half-arsed, crinkly, clever and juvenile. It was compiled by a prick. All proceeds will be spent by Fielding on horse races. Buy two because they will wear out.'
