I love this sort of rubbish, I really do. This reminds me of those 80's b-sides to 7 inch singles by the more "off-kilter" artists of the era. (Think "Teardrop explodes", think "Bauhaus", or if you're too young, think "Lou Barlow" of Sebadoh dragging a broken moog sellotaped to a rusty gate around and around in a concrete courtyard). Yes, these were the days when musicians used to cast aside their artistic shackles, for the duration of a b-side's 5 unbearable minutes and really really.... experiment!!
You swore never listened to listen to those songs ever again, after that first time - but you did. You kept coming back for an occassional spin, to see whether you could have been mistaken. That these misunderstood and largely forgotten tracks were in fact criminally underated works of genius that simply needed time and repeated listening, in order to worm their way into your affections.
But no, you were totally and utterly wrong on that score, these were indeed nuggets of utter shite. Pure jawdroppingly dire wastes of precious minutes of your life.
Ahhh, those were the days. Don't you miss B-sides? Sadly, the thing is, yes you probably do. Life doesn't seem right without them.
So that is why everyone here should download this abysmal, cobbled together old noddy-bag of pointless noodling without any further delay.
My only regret is that I learned of this collection a little too late to be able to contribute some sort of aural smegma to the stew. However, if there is to be a 3rd installment to the series (and there must!!), then there are one or two un-released travesties by "TROLLEY" that have made unsuspecting women passing within earshot, sprout testicles in horror - that I will pass along for consideration.
Awful.
Absolutely fucking awful.
Well done you lot, it's quite brilliant.
