HOMELESS update: DENNIS (ex Bits of Shit/Whipper) and WILFUL BOYS out now!

[Homeless]

Three top notch releases to end what has been a huge 2013 for Homeless.
With just one release for 2012 (the Bits of Shit 'Cut Sleeves' LP), Homeless has unleashed a further TEN LP's in 2013.

Since announcing the two reissues of Tasmania's long forgotten favourite sons, The Stickmen, here at Homeless we have been inundated with questions regarding the releases. Here they are, finally, the delays caused by The Stickmen's unwavering quest for perfection, which sees them release each LP in a spectacular, silk-screen edition. Hand crafted by New Zealand professionals, with no less than 7 colour separations, lacquer, and metallic powders then die cut, glued and including a printed inner sleeve with liner notes.

Silk-screen editions are limited to 120 only available for preorder worldwide.

'The Stickmen' and 'Man Made Stars' will each also be available in editions of 350 case wrapped (old style "tip on") sleeves on thick board.

Each LP includes a download code, with a bonus previously unreleased track.
'Man Made Stars' is pressed on Aqua Blue vinyl.

Both albums remastered by Mikey Young.
Released 13th December, 2013.

*********************************************************

Tasmanian siblings Linda J and Bean of legendary noise outfit Little Ugly Girls released a classic album of sonic fuckery on CD only in 2009, combining elements of The Stooges with VU and as someone said "Monkey?s Blood finds The Dacios sounding as if a young Jason Spaceman had drunk beer instead of taken drugs, replaced an orchestra with a pissed-off Patti Smith and got to the point."

At just 250 copies it's Homeless' most limited release to date and sold out at the source. It won't be repressed.
Revolver, Forte, Goner, 1-2-3-4 and Florida's Dying have stock. Don't Buy Records and X-Mist will have theirs next week.

******************************************************

One of the greatest albums released last year was the little-heard Yes I'm Leaving Mission Bulb, which we had a little cry about that it wasn't offered to us. We're pleased to be rectifying this on September 29th, along with the new Yes I'm Leaving album Slow Release

Yes, I?m Leaving have been toiling away in Sydney's suburbs for a few years, releasing three LP?s and perfecting an intense live show that is something akin to a sonic melting pot of bands such as Scratch Acid and Big Black. The band?s rhythm section, comprised of bassist David Cook and drummer Anthony Boyer, create a brutal steamroller that serves as the perfect platform to aid Billy Burke?s thrashing guitar and borderline tortured vocal delivery. Not since the days of Lubricated Goat has Sydney seen such an intriguing mix of noise and menace.

"Yes I?m Leaving?s formula revolves around punishing rhythmic passages of noise that repeat relentlessly until broken in the form of a shouted chorus before it quickly returns to its sludgy backbone. It?s almost symbolic of the way they view the world in their lyrics. Choruses act as reprieves from the chaos, cathartic life events that create an escape from a life led in continual mental anguish. Here, Yes I?m Leaving?s barely restrained edginess tears out of normality for a raging reprieve before the inevitable return to a mire of silently shot glances at the outside world."

"If you dig Big Black, AmRep and Toronto's METZ, you should give these Aussies a go."

Evan Minsker suggests "Both of these records are great and should be filed in your record collection next to your dollar bin copy of Fragile."

"Austin's Spray Paint touches on discordant post-punk on their latest burner "Polar Beer," due on their forthcoming LP Punters On a Barge. Anchored by monotone, robotic vocals, "Polar Beer" bounces along with an atonal bent chord as the primary melodic vehicle, driven forward by a simple drum beat and adorned with squelches of noise. The Fall comes to mind, as do recent favorites like Total Control."
