Televised Suicide and Iron Lung Records will press to LP the discography for Perth band JAWS due out on June 26th.
From the label...
JAWS. One of the shortest lived but greatest hardcore bands from this side. Only releasing a demo and LP in 2005 and 2006, they toured and played a lot, until calling it a day and playing a final live show in 2008 with Extortion (fellow local legends). This LP has both their recordings, remastered and all together on one side and their final gig on the B side + a bonus live track recorded at 208 at some point in time.
If you’ve never heard this band, just know members went on to play/played in a million bands you would have heard…
TOTAL CONTROL, DIÄT, FROM THE RUINS, GRIM FANDANGO, MILES AWAY, BREAK EVEN, HELTA SKELTA, BLKOUT, CLOCK OF TIME, THE DJS, MEATLOCKER, ALL IN DEEP SHIT, EXTORTION, THE DARLING RANGERS, LACE CURTAINS, GOLDEN STAPH, SOVIET VALVES… an extensive list of sick stuff, do your homework.
500 copies on black 150gr vinyl housed in a gatefold 320gsm jacket with a 32 page A4 zine featuring live photos, old interviews, gig posters, lyrics and artworks, an A2 poster and sticker.
