« on: March 17, 2011, 08:25:31 AM »

Does anyone know anything about this record?  I picked up a copy recently for $1 and just want to find out more about it.  It was released on Cleopatra Records (Australia) in '86-'87.  The catalogue number is CLP231.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.  I have looked around and can't seem to find out anything about it.

Non-Music Shit / Re: Japan is in trouble

« on: March 13, 2011, 06:58:26 AM »

hey everyone.  i got an email from a friend who runs a record shop in tokyo this morning... here it is...

Hi my friends,

First I want to tell that me and all my families, friends, our shop are okay.
Thanks for the thought.

The epicenter was 111 miles east of Tokyo, but at the moment of the quake I was walking down the
street and didn't realize at first then so many people rushed out from the houses and buildings.
Everyone couldn't stand still, screaming, holding to each other.... we couldn't believe what had happened.
All the trains stopped, so most of the people walked or bought bikes to get home.
That scene of the crowds walking the big streets was like I was looking a disaster film.
We had three big aftershocks, and having constant shocks so can't sleep very well.
Most of the shops are closed in Tokyo, so quiet....

Our customers, which means your fans are living all over in Japan.
Of course some of them are disaster victims or lost their house or families and friends living near the devastated area.

Even us, in Tokyo couldn't talk or send emails by the mobile phone for a day so we all talked on twitter telling and asking the safety.
Some people asked for help on twitter.
After this earthquake everyone is in big fear, so keeping on talking on twitter to cheer up each other.
Earthquake, Tsunami, aftershocks, and nuclear plant explosion..........
Twitter is now helping Japanese people.
I hear disaster victims are reading twitter by their mobile, and any warm words helps them a lot.
Of course they need donation, but at the moment they need hope.

I was thinking what I could do for our customers in sorrow, and thought it's to send cheers from bands and labels.
So what I want to ask is a message sent by you to them if you have a twitter account.
Japanese people feel really happy when they know that they're "thought" by their favorite people.
For our customers, it's you!
Please forward this message to your bands and to your friends who are in music industry.

Please tweet to @bigloverecords and I can retweet for our followers.

Lastly, we at BIG LOVE will work properly or even more to keep everything as usual,
cus if us in Tokyo are depressed, Japan will be dead.
So please don't hesitate to send your new release information, anything!!!!
We'll try our best for the recovery.

Hoping to hear from you on twitter!!!!!

With love,

Haruka

So yeah... if everyone can just do this simple act of kindness, it would be greatly appreciated.  BIG LOVE is a great store and supports most labels/ bands that post on here.

thanks.

LP - Shaved Women - Shaved Women
Greatness of this caliber hasn't come out of Saint Louis since the late great Drunks With Guns! Shaved Women's debut 12" is a pretty brutal piece of wax, with equal parts 80s hardcore and pigfuck noise rock. This eponymous piece of powerful brilliance mixes Black Flag-esque choruses and tough-as-nails AmRep-y verses, bridges, and breakdowns seamlessly. Just imagine what Black Flag would've sounded like in the early-90s, if they ditched Henry and hooked back up with a fictional emphysema-riddled Keith Morris instead. Sounds pretty righteous, huh? Not as righteous as this record will once it hits your turntable. It's a 12" EP full of no-nonsense punk fucking rock that reminiscent of a seemless mix of Francis Harold and the Holograms and Pissed Jeans. This record feels like a mutant monster truck going In The Red. A fist-pumping, melodic, instantly memorable, hooky record with 7 full-on shout-alongs to pass down to posterity. It's fucking relentless, is what it is and it sounds way more like a crew of hairy-ass fat dudes than a shaved women, but Shaved Women is an awesome band name, isn't it? I digress, those with a little less testosterone under the hood, will be stoked to hear that the last cut on side A, "Same In The End", has a killer mid-tempo, groovy, downer vibe that out-weirds most weird punks going all the way back to when punk first started getting weird and the band is tighter than a pair of the tightest skinny jeans. In fact, this author would go as far as to say that Shaved Women must bring a serious amount of mosh with them when they perform live. Furthermore, "Choices" contains some of the most damaged bass playing I've heard in ages and the last cut on the underside is a fucking killer Die Kruezen cover ("Think For Me"). This slab is on Rotted Tooth Recordings so you know it's decked out with some killer screen printed artwork. In this case, Jeremy Kannapell of Ghost Ice is the artiste. The grunt work (hand-screen printing) was done by none quite capably by none other than Kyle Reynolds (Cacaw, Heavy Times, Bad Drugs). There's only 150 hand-numbered copies to be shared by all the scum of the earth, so you better cop one quick or get sick!

Okay...you talked me into it!

you will not be disappointed.  one of the best records i've heard in awhile.
