NOTES: While Blood Red River was the third release from Australia's the Scientists, this was for all practical purposes an entirely different band than that which had cut a self-titled debut album in 1981. The Scientists had briefly broken up after the first album's release (two parting members would soon join an embryonic version of the Hoodoo Gurus), and guitarist and singer Kim Salmon put together a new edition of the group that more strongly reflected his own musical obsessions -- plenty of twisted blues changes and skittery slide guitar, thick and pulsing basslines, and primal rhythms and noisy guitar solos that reflected the influences of the Stooges and the Velvet Underground. As a result, Blood Red River is truly the first salvo of the Scientists as fans would come to know them, and these six tunes set the template the group would follow through the '80s.
