It lives! I thought after my last fiasco of a show that the people might revolt and I’d be asked to stop doing these hour-long phony radio show podcasts, but no, turns out several dozen of you liked that one and I’ve presumptively assumed that you’d like me to keep going. So here’s DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE RADIO PODCAST #17, this time 1 hour, 11 minutes of wiry punk, aggressive pop stomp, razorburn instrumental surf music and some loopy early 80s UK DIY that was (perhaps) lost to time until today. I think you’re going to find a song or two you like in this batch, some of which came from a pile of 45s I turned into digital tracks just last night.

Bands span the quality and fame gamut from The Au Pairs to Subverse, fromSubmarine Races to The Titans, from The Great Unwashed to the Axel Grinders, and even from The Wailers to Blunder Tongue. Download it, stream it, and as always – make sure you tell all of your pals about it.

It’s not easy curating a definitive selection of the best sub-underground, late 70s UK 45s and comp tracks from the heyday of do-it-yourself record making, but I’ve put together a start. I’ve culled my newest 8Tracks mix, “SUB-UNDERGROUND UK DIY” from multiple sources: the “Instant Pop Classics” comps, various internet downloads, “Messthetics” and my own collection. Just like the compilation I posted yesterday of female-fronted riot grrl/garage punk, it’s available right now to listen to on computers, smartphones and tablets. 

Outside of the fairly-well-known (such as it is) DIY pioneers like The Desperate Bicycles and Animals & Men, most acts on here are ultra-obscure and maybe only lasted for one 45 or a couple of compilation tracks, sometimes only on cassette. 23 tracks in all. Most given to that tinny, experimental, slipshod and faraway sound that characterizes the best of the best of this posthumously-defined genre.

Come listen to "SUB-UNDERGROUND UK DIY" here.
