...time on my arms so here's the Rockshop Live Album!!

This was one of our last shows recorded early 2009 at a renowned do it yourself cultural haven known as Spacething located in the windy town of Wellington New Zealand.We played before Knifefight who put on the show to celebrate the release of their seven inch record.Thanks for having us Brendan,John and Meno! I set up the tapedeck with the plastic stereo condenser microphone that ALC5 gave me and the results are warmly pleasing.The set list covers all of the tunes we ever wrote and it was a good show that we were all happy with.Sadly we all dispersed to different parts of N.Z. and I moved to Australia shortly afterwards.I felt like we were just getting into our stride...Kim sings,Edie drums,Kristen plays keyboards and I (Lynton) performed guitar.

Stick it down your ears!

ets bin ah wile.. .

Here is a piece of footage kindly filmed by Rob at kOf Gallery from our first Satanic Rockers show.It's a bit rickety but that's what you get at a cheap show.. .

five dollar rip-off

and here is heavy turkey's five dollar rip-off.recorded in 2008 in wellington at the klearnote loungepad onto tascam four track this motherfucker was overloaded! there were some overdubs done on "bat's" and "satan raise the dead" involving the computer. i had an amateur's stab at compression and e.q. on a couple of tracks and tried to smooth out the upper frequencies so that it goes down like a warm slug down a canetoad's throat so let your ears flap around these thanks dude...Dave and I did the artwork by taking turns trying to draw each other..

The five dollar rip-off concept evolved out of our rushed production;we recorded,mixed,and manufactured the run of fifty cdr's in twenty four hours.That's why the sound quality is not as good as the first album.We also repeated a couple of tracks from the earlier release so you can do a comparison between the different versions.......schneurch!

Here is a clip filmed by Dave's girlfriend of us playing at the late Records Records in Dunedin which was run by Pat Faigan.Early 2009.....

Rockshop Album Rockshop(2009)

Previously I posted the Rockshop e.p.,so here is the album!It was recorded in 2009 on my fourtrack.No slack just christian rat attack snap,the bat's back! Fans of electric panflute will be disappointed..here's a clip filmed at the Klearnote of us by Piotr Wolodzko(hope I spelt your last name right!)

At Last The Long-Promised New Satanic Rockers Album!!

It's taken about six months to get this sucker done but quality does not come quickly. This is my first digital era album and I am as pleased as peanuts about it. Just got dumped by my bratty girlfriend so let the power of sound sustain me.....

There are two guest musicians;Dave Michaels plays the guitar lead at the end of "Tenement Block" and Matt Middleton performs saxophone and shawm on "Funky Grooove". All of these tracks were recorded at 232 Bellair Street in Kensington,Melbourne. 2010,what a crap year for ailment and doom.....

I played all the other parts(drums,vocals, and guitars).

The Satanic Rockers wish to thank in no particular order; Dave Wertham for showing me how to use Protools. KoF Gallery in Flemington down the road for rocking hard. Josh Jenkins and Beth Dawson for music enthusiasms. Rob Buick for letting me scorch his knives. Previous flatmates and workmates for inspiration. And all Rockers both Past and Present!!!Rock on Rockers!!!!!

I'll survive.

P.s.thanks Matt and Dave!

Here's Part Two Of The Cockfight.....

I Know This Is Really Childish But It Makes Me Laugh!

I twinked out some war comic caption bubbles and added my own dirty words-I dug these out from my artchives the other day and they have stood the test of time.I did these for a zine a couple of years ago that I never got around to doing so here they are in digital form.Please look away if you are prone to getting offended....also the captions have to be read bottom to top.Part two will be posted in a moment.Have a laugh on the house...
