This copy has a pressing error: the entire B-side is from Archie Shepp’s 1971 album, Things Have Got To Change.

For Bandcamp Friday, Fugazi officially released Steve Albini’s 1992 In On The Kill Taker sessions, issued as Albini Sessions. I revisited the version of Kill Taker I heard first via this 33 year-old cassette.

here's a track that Arto did with Nação Zumbi back in the day
with Pupillo on it. Denge (the band's bassist) is playing bass.
I'm playing keys - other than the Rhodes, which played by Stephen Barber. I'm doing the rhythm stuff, noise pads, and organ.

'Liars could write melodies, they just never saw them as the be all and end all, preferring to experiment with how they might sit in dialogue with the power of the drum...'

Many Happy Returns to Drum’s Not Dead by Liars, which turns 20 today!

11 February 1977 - David Bowie released 'Sound and Vision' as a single, taken from his latest album Low. 'Sound and Vision' was used by the BBC on trailers at the time, providing useful exposure, which was much needed, as Bowie opted to do nothing to promote the single himself. #BowieForever
