I have spent a good part of this holiday break sick with a cold, and therefore catching up on home-based projects of a musical nature instead of shouldering my half of the parenting and whatnot. I have digitized a few records I’d recently bought, because I – sacre bleu! – don’t own a real turntable anymore, just one of those USB plug-and-burn things that allow me to turn vinyl into 1’s and 0’s.
I recently roasted up the 1995 Vesuvius Records 10"EP “IN SPELUNCA”, which I paid twenty bucks for in order to have the compleat works of all-female Scottish 90s lo-fi garage pop band SALLY SKULL in my possession. This was the capper, and it contains their first recorded song, “Raven”, which I’m posting for you here. It has a surprising sax addition and a more understated lo-fi bounce than their later two EPs. I hope ya like it.
