HARD-ONS ANTHOLOGY SERIES!

We are working on a 5 part reissue series thru CITADEL RECORDS.

WE HAVE NEARLY FINISHED PUTTING TOGETHER ARTWORK and CD MASTERS for PART 1:


... Part 1: 1984-1987.

2CD set in multipanel digipak with 36 page book of photos from our own archives, never before seen by the public let alone published. Liner-notes are extensive. There are 60 (!) songs spread over 2 cds. CD 1 will be SMELL MY FINGER, HOT FOR YOUR LOVE BABY and the three 7" releases from this period + outtakes from these releases, plus rare compilation tracks.

CD 2 will have live tracks, demos, cover versions, a house party tape from 1984 as a 4 piece, basically never-before heard material that just sat in milkcrates, stored away, for their time to come.

We found at Ray's mum and dad's house, a series of comics that were published frequently chronicling satirically, our adventures. These went from 1982-1987, and were never made public. In fact, the only time they were made public were when one issue was given away on the harbour cruise record launch for ALL SET TO GO. Some selected panels will be published within the pages of the book inside.

Projected release date: SOMETIME in MAY 2012.

HARD-ONS OFF THE BEATEN TRACK

---

There are places outside the big cities like Sydney and Melbourne where people just like you and I live! Apparently! Instead of filing these places away under "Buttfucknowhere" like we always do, we are going to explore them. Just like the Leyland Brothers did when they had their TV show. Starting with a wonderful place by the ocean called "WOMBARRA" and an inland paradise not too far from Canberra called "BRAIDWOOD".

we are looking forward to it and we've even rented an AVIS van to take us and our gear (except drums, as they don't fit)
