HIROSHIMA CHAIR/CULTURCIDE-RESET/YEAR ONE, SPLIT LP, 1981, AUSTRALIA/USA




Having long flown a flag for the sublime craziness of ex-Severed Heads mage Garry Bradbury in his various guises (his Bradbury and Size recordings can be found elsewhere on MS), it's with some delight that I bring you the rarest piece of his puzzle; a split with the merry misanthropes of Houston Texas' Culturcide. Issued on the Dogfood Production System label that was home to several other cornerstones works from the Aussie underground, this beautifully diseased sounding slab emerged around the same time that he began his epochal work with Severed Heads and offers some very telling examples of just what he brought to their early era, it's pitching, heaving and tweezing atmosphere of malaised loops, punch press rhythms and twisted samples sounding wholly of a piece with his work alongside Ellard and co. As for Culturcide, the band heard here is proffering something markedly different and a goodly bit more exciting than the pre-V/VM style pop culture rape they became more known for latterly; with an engagingly hard to peg stance that splits the difference between trashily garrulous MX-80 Sound-like post punk blurt and a more malevolently snarling post-TG industrial churn.
