NOTES ON THE ALBUM REISSUES, by Vince Giarrusso

Get to Notice
Recorded in Simon Grounds’ home studio. We were concentrating on songs and song structure and getting used to the studio process. The overall sound is a collaboration between the band and Simon Grounds’ excellent acoustic/electric aesthetic, recalling early David Bowie and the Kinks.

Rushall Station
Recorded at Hothouse Studios St Kilda after Leaves Me Blind and Dream It Down. I always considered this ‘second’ first album after a lot of shit went down with a major shake up in the band, and getting out of a major label contract. Again the focus was on songs and song structure which parallel with Get to Notice. The sound of the record is a collaboration between the band and the producer Wayne Connolly, but moving away from the lush over dubs of the previous two albums concentrating on capturing a live, almost acoustic sound. My favourite track is ‘Undone’.

Whitey Trickster by GBVG
A home studio recording. A collaboration between Glenn, myself and Sonic Animation. We would provide the songs, lyrics and melodies and the Sonic Animation boys would arrange and set up the rhythm tracks. From there it was a collaboration on arrangement and structure. The album was structured as a journey into the night. My favourite track is ‘Quello Che Voi’.

Ways T'Burn
Recorded at Birdland Studios with Mikey Alonso and Lindsay Gravina. A loose collection of songs reflecting what was going on at the time, referencing electronica , drum ‘n’ bass, the blues and rock. Our most experimental record, and my favourite. The artwork is by Matthew Robertson and Cailan.

Cold Feeling
Recorded at Birdland Studios with Mikey Alonso after pre production at the Sonic Animation studios where we layered rhythms and beats. A difficult album to structure as we had two mega tunes as bookends . ‘Put Me in Your Movie’ is my favourite track. Merida Sussex (The Paradise Motel) does a great vocal. The artwork is by Matthew Robertson and Cailan.

Evil Underground Lovers 94-97
A compilation of live tracks sourced from gigs during 94-97 initially to be sold only at gigs.

like the sound of the last 'un

Is my screen name too subtle or just not funny?

i get it.. but maybe it's subtle?

when i change my sn it is always to amuse myself and if anyone else likes it it's a bonus

^ so indie

the SN that celebrates itself

when i change my sn it is always to amuse myself

Haha me too, tbh. I've been sitting here going "hard one... hard on... semi on... GEDDIT EH EH?" all day.

I kill me.

For some reason I find this graph hilarious

i'm not sure those facts needed to be graphically rendered

Clearly I'm out of the loop because I have NFI who a single person in that graph even is.

wroflmother

Yeah I guessed as much.

so you did have SFI

Only after I bothered thinking about it for more than 5 seconds.

Which I dont usually bother doing, obv.

woo monday off.. long weekend~!

so h+t we gonna have pre-undies fap @ cookie (or lounge)?

werks for me

dey got dat fried chikken at cookie

finest example of

interesssting

not been there in a while. always seem to have trouble getting served by dint of not being a good looking woman

i had no trouble at all on birthday evening

:0

i'm invisible at the bar at the best of times though so

FAP sounds good! Would pref lounge only because its significantly cheaper - love Cookie but is so pricey :/ But I'm easy. What time?

Shit I'll have to go right from work wont I, going home and coming back out will be stupid.

depends really. i think doors are @ 9?

Ya. Maybe I can leave work early that day or something.

if they don't let u they are unaustralian

hay is anyone seeing powly at the pow tonite?

briefly considered it but, y'know, st kilda

i am trying to go into 'stop spending money lockdown' now that i have cleared CC debt

remember 'saving', kids??

it's kind of an abstract concept for me at this point

but will be debt free by end of 2010 if there are no major disasters

^feelin this SN

brief flash of inspiration

Would save if I ever had any cash left over to do so with :/

I love 'em, but what flavour is Light 'n' Tangy actually meant to be? I looked at the bag, and there's a picture of a tomato on there. Why?

good question

maybe it's its own flavour, like blue heaven

I assumed some weird variant of lemon pepper... kind of thing.

still annoyed that *I* suggested Butter Popcorn for the Smiths competition and yet they chose some "bloke"'s Butter Popcorn entry

TBH the idea of popcorn potato chips sounds a bit gross! Also, 8942578435 ppl prob suggested it.

reading kbp's lament gave me a great surge of happiness.

MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE SUGGESTED GOTH CHIPS, TRAYCE
