VENOM P. STINGER - 1986-1991

Aussie 2nd-wave punk crud of the highest caliber, circa 1986-¢‚Ǩ‚Äú1991. A complete early works, first time on CD ever, sacrificing none of the scum!Compiles all of Meet My Friend Venom LP, Walking About" 7", Whats Yours is Mine LP, and the Waiting Room EP.The VENOM P. STINGER retrospective is on! One of the roughest groups of the 80s is back in print on vinyl and for the first time ever on CD, and still nice and hard and rough and wild on either format. File under: punk rock/noise rock/free-of-constraints rock. Comprised of DIRTY THREEs MICK TURNER and JIM WHITE, along with ferocious frontman DUGALD MCKENZIE and bassist ALAN SECHER-JENSEN. Venom P. Stinger attacked in a modified, somewhat streamlined hardcore punk style, with Micks burnt-and-twisted guitar tone setting them apart. Instead of the violent pile-up that occurred in every SICK THINGS (McKenzie and Turners previous group) recording, there was instead something more organized, though coming from unique and indeed, singular corners of approach: post-hardcore with a very individual style." -Drag City.
