Highly recommended.

First time ever reissue! This classic slice of outsider Australian post-punk, originally issued by Ron himself on LP back in 1979.

Born and raised in Belgrave, an outer suburb of Melbourne which, 40+ years ago was basically a rural town outside of Melbourne, Ron and his band, The Unforgettables, were a rag-tag of hippie-punks who, under Ron's tutelage, recorded this album in a vague sort of isolation from the world surrounding it.

Ron was inspired by everything from Stockhausen to the Stooges and made a kind of basement Iggy/Lou sound in step with the city's post-punk scene, but always one step removed.

Ron was a regular fixture in the scene which coalesced around the Crystal Ballroom in St. Kilda and featured other luminaries like the Boys Next Door, The Models et al, sharing stages with all and sundry. He reached a certain hometown infamy when he staged a hunger strike in the window of Missing Link Records after the album's release in protest of local commercial FM radio station 3XY not playing tracks from it. He also released the equally fantastic Vorpal Blade LP under the band name Piano Piano in 1980, among other highly-coveted rarities.

This fascinating, unique and thoroughly rockin' slice of Melbourne post-punk DIY history has been newly remastered by Mikey Young and also contains extensive liner notes by Mr. Rude himself, as well as some previously unpublished photos from the era.
