about

Released on Brisbane Label STONE GROOVE in 1991.
Cat# Stoned 03 / Groove 03, depending on the cover art or the cassette itself.
Art by Carl Breitkreuz.
Label boss: Tim Steward

A great retrospective insight into the Brisbane music in the era immediately preceding the grunge explosion, when "indie rock" had solidified into a global scene. The bands were hugely diverse, absorbing influences from America and the UK, but still doing their own thing in this pre-internet, isolated-by-time-and-space city.

Originally a cassette-only release. These versions were recorded back straight from cassette and remastered to bring them up to level. Hopefully they survived the last 25 years pretty ok.

If you'd like to get in touch please email. If you're in one of the bands and I haven't been able to track you down get in touch too. I can send you a wave file of your song, and a full download of both collections.

Album includes a set of photos of the tape, scans of the entire 12 panel cover, and a set of flyer artwork.

Thanks to all the bands and the people involved. All songs copyright the artists, 1991.
