The Eastern Dark 12". Long Live the New Flesh
Another one of those "of course he's got this one" albums. This EP was a revelation when it came out.
This is Australian Ramones at it's best. Their first 7" single "Joey and Dee Dee" (also available) said it all. Members of the Celibate Rifles and Lime Spiders joined forces to form a band and opened every live show with a Ramones cover, in order of their discography. Their name was taken from the Phantom comic. They were pure "pop punk" before it was cool.
This EP was actually released after lead singer and songwriter James Darroch was killed when the bands tour van ran off the road ending a short but VERY impressive bands career. This 12' and the aforementioned 7' are both Australian punk classics and a must for any collection. Tim.
We have copies of both available for sale.
