we got newbies! and it's with a bloody sigh of releif!

after orginially launching the first record in January we've had too many cover problems to count!! broken screens, broken brains, confining commitments & screwed finances!

but after all of that and a hell of a lot of passed time we're finally releasing both of the new LP's by Hi-God People / Zond and Cousins of Reggae....

Hi-God People / Zond split 12''

The Hi-God People side was recorded around the same time as their recent split 12'' with New Zealanders the Dead C. It has live snippets from their show at the Palace whilst supporting Sonic Youth and recordings from a radio 3CR session.

On the flip side is Zond! Zond are a rock group from Melbourne, Australia. They are named after a satellite of the USSR. But Zond are broadcasting dark ecstasy, not from space but from a place far below. They are a Rorschach blot, or a Freudian analysis gone wrong. Zond include members of past and present groups: On, Fong, Library Punks, Mum Smokes, Ned & the Meds, The Stabs. This is Zond's first release!

both sides are just screwed up genius! that's all i have to say>>>>>

Cousins of Reggae ''QUARTZ'' 12''

''New limited LP from this Canada-based riot squad, best loved for their excellent split with Mouthus. Quartz goes beyond the heavily-barbecued Harry Pussy moves of their previous releases and further into new realms of lurch that would combine riffs that sound like I Wanna Be Your Dog tied to streamrollers and dragged on their face through Industrial warehouse with the deforming use of clotted F/X, endless vistas of crunch and some ****ing bandstand rocking moves that make you wonder what The Birthday Party might’ve sounded like if they dug Demo Moe more than ****ing Gene Pitney'' - David Kennan, Volcanic Tongue

both records are limited to 300 copies which are almost gone already... hand screenprinted & stenciled covers... an absolutely time consuming process!!! some would say PAINstaking... i would say a lot of love.

to order for $15 plus postage head to ...spanishmagic.org

thanks for reading!
