LUNG LEG, live in Glasgow, Scotland, 1995.
Tag: Lung Leg
Hyper, scattered 1995 Scottish all-gal artpunk from LUNG LEG; this wacked-out charmer was on a Vesuvius Records compilation called “In Spelunca”, also featuring DH faves Sally Skull and The Yummy Fur.
LUNG LEG, SALLY SKULL and HELLO SKINNY flyer for live show – Edinburgh, Scotland – probably 1996 or 1997. Borrowed Raymond Pettibon imagery.
New episode of Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio Podcast – our 14th. I recorded this over the weekend with you – you – in mind. I knew you’d want to hear new stuff from The Sleaze, The Delphines, Raw Prawn, The Wimps, Cheater Slicks and The Oblivians. I figured you’d be up for cuts from new reissues from Come and the Androids of Mu. And my thinking was that you’d also be real happy if I played some older stuff from Ty Wagner, Susan Lynn, The Other Half, Pussy Galore and a whole bunch more. So an hour and fifteen minutes later, Dynamite Hemorrhage Radio #14 was ready to go.

As careful readers of the ‘Hemorhhage know, I’ve been making up for 15 years of lost time and diving in deep to the wild world of loopy late 90s UK girlpunk, pop and noise. The label Slampt – wholly unknown to me before this year – seemed to be a prime mover in a world of their own making, with jarring lo-fi pop and angular punk bands like Lung Leg, Sally Skull, The Yummy Fur, Golden Starlet and others passing through their ranks at various times. We love ’em. Not all of ’em, but we love a bunch of it when we’re in the mood, you know.
Thanks to a blog called PUKEKOS, who are perhaps the only mp3 blog whose files are still active (my old one Detailed Twang also still has a bunch of active stuff, BTW), I discovered the Crampsian shout-and-shriek sounds of BETTE DAVIS AND THE BALCONETTES recently. They too spent some time on Slampt.
Their discography is wobbly and uneven, but a few cacophonous gems totally stand out, like this one, “Surf Surf Kill Kill”, the A-side of a 45 on Damaged Goods in 1998. It sounds like the Maximum Rock & Roll radio show theme song crossed w/ “Golf” by Art Phag, with a bored, drunk English girl spitting out a poetry slam on top. The sleeve also features the best anthropomorphic use of a bear since Monoshock’s “Primitive Zippo” 45, a single that I put out.
Outstanding stuff. Play loud for maximum ear bleed.
OK, brand-new 8Track mix has been completed and is live for you to listen to right now on yer computer or smartphone. It’s all-female, super uptempo 1990s low-fidelity bashing, which loyal Dynamite Hemorrhage readers know is one of our musical calling cards. I’m calling it “Object To I-Dent”, after the Pussycat Trash song included in this mix. Whatever that means. Sounds gnarly.
Half of the 17 songs here come from the riot grrl primordial swamp, the other are rooted more in learning-to-play, third-wave garage punk. Where you draw the line is up to you. You’ll hear quality entertainment from a variety of whooping and screeching young women plying their rough trade two decades ago. I’m especially proud that it’s 17 songs in 27 minutes. Pure blitzkrieg.
Come listen to “Object To I-Dent” here.
