SATURN`S FLEA COLLAR ‎– Monosyllabic -(Alternative Tentacles-USA-1996)

An american project developed by members of the legendary Victims Family! In fact guitarist Ralph Spight and  bassist  Larry Boothroyd join Jason Christian to create creative and  original tunes.

Expect broken rhytms, fast changes, jazzy melodies mixed with powerful  riffs.Some kind of HC punk is there yet it is all a fantastic mash up of various influences.For the lovers of Victims Family and related projects.

Big Thanx to Puppybarf for this original vinyl rip.

Enjoy it.

VICTIMS FAMILY-Peel Session 11/07/1989-(Unreleased-1989)

Formed in Santa Rosa, California, in 1984, Victims Family made an indelible mark in the Punk and Indy scenes with their mad tempo changes and flirtations with Hardcore Punk, Jazz, Funk and Noise textures and satirical and poignant lyrics. In an era when Punk devolved into metal, they went in a direction uniquely their own. (from their webpage) 

6 amazing well-recorded tracks in this Peel Session show us their astonishing skills. An FB page about them is here. 

Enjoy this spectacular Peel Session.
