Wasn't a knock seeds, just reminded me of some stuff.. I am really grateful for being introduced to the Boingas by this forum.. the spoken apology to Xavier at the end of their epic snotty-gremlin-wanker-chanting cracked me up
(good inside info re their name, not a winkipops then?)

Enjoyed reading this, Seeds. Cheers, mate.
Understand the anguish of the approaching crossroad: sensible bedtime this way, hungover like a bastard that way (after a hell night of laughs).

tbb tried a Basesix mash with Seeds...this is legit...
Planting the Seeds to stoke up a Garage Psych monster...
Backbeat : 60's bands had (eg:) "The Seeds Sound" or Their own Groove....
This being an Ultra Cool Example of a Band perfecting their Sound!
'No Escape' is the perfect Sound for a Seeds Hit Tune ... 'Pushin' too hard'
Keyboarder Pushed too hard & offered up same dose for 3 songs on first LP.
So yeah! It's a 60's thing to perfect yer own 'sound'!
Just play trax back to back for a Double Dose of The Seeds Sound.
Listen to how the Crowd go crazy over the insane original Seeds Sound.
Hot tune has some seriously good cover versions as it is...very much respected alt track!
Whole World goes even more crazy over the even more insane Seeds do over...drool!
To record one shit hot song is plenty enough but to then go next level on it...Man, that's Unreal!
Early 80's 12inch remixes revived this Sound thing in the booth..to resell hits as is the norm now!

next in the chronology would probably be this adelaide world-hit. music written by a talented music student of sister mead, who went on to have a band called speedboat in the 80s.

Southern Death Cult was an earlier incarnation of The Cult with Ian Astbury on vocals I think.

continuing tbb's tribute theme (via blackers), here's a melbourne act that kinda covered (added their own words) to a french hit as soon as it came out circa 1981.. (french hit below. hope seeds prefers this to his namesake band, it's his thread after all : )

Salute Wilhelm Scream...crew are stoked with another hot tune from prog Chix.
Thanx for sharing that track...Hard to believe that's 1974
Both Sound / Visuals easily fit into Today's modern edgy retro Chic.
Must admit...tbb was confused by recent Promos...( Reason: Betty passed away last year...RIP.)
Thought this was a retro redo...certainly can't recall this track...in this quality...escaped tbb's youth!
Betty was a decent songwriter & MOR singer married to Miles Davis + recorded with MOR artists
Like most in the era was influenced by Psychedelics / Hendrix.
1971 was aiming to record with Santana...but got waylaid to compose all the songs for her debut LP.
Recorded 'above' with Sly & the Family Stone-Drums/Guitar + Tower of Power Horns + Pointer Sisters.
This being a belated swellnet tribute.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/22/arts/music/betty-davis-they-say-im-di...
tbb recalls a run of late 60's early 70's Provocative hot under the collar Foxy Sound in the background.
Keys clangin' in Bowls, sexy sounding Cocktails > Early '70's ~ Younger Yummy Mummy Scene!
Went hand in hand with the Sexploitation LP covers of the day...(Plenty of them turnin' Gromz heads).
Been tryin' to track down a spaced out French Chic that wowed the era with her edgy modern funk.
tbb was too young...just sharing that Gromz did pick up on this rare alt Foxy time out...Good Stuff!
1967-69 Earlier Classic French / UK Track ~ Je t'Aime - Moi Non Plus xxx Version
Next track was also early in the piece & did well in US but got banned by the BBC for heavy breathing.
Another straight Band that sexed it up & paid off, they tried a few other variations on a theme...
tbb won't be waylaid...best we stick with the classics...nothing too sexy.
1970 Jungle Fever ~ The Cha ka chas (Belgian / Latin Band ~ Vocals : Kari Kenton)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jungle_Fever_(song)
Hodad crew might recall this...if not, the Gromz learn a few moves too soon...(Cool it!)

Jeeez.. they used the wrong picture of The Undecided!
I was in the band with Andrew P Street (who, following an illustrious career as music journo and author is now the speechwriter for Peter Malinauskas!), however Ch7 managed to dig up a photo of a mid-80's Sydney band with the same name.
Oh well. Great memories all the same. Unreal to see Di Joy too, an incredible woman who gave so much to the SA music scene.

well that is shit hot, nice to see kris back on form, relaxed, simple, not afraid of space.. last time i checked in on him was in the oo's and Sneak Attack was frkn horrible, to busy, shouty, goddy and desperate. Love the waspy/mosquitoey brown noise in the background of this track and the og vibe.

a replay of this came on a telly last night. This is what 'post-(whatever)' bands are all about : ) .. the angst of ian curtis (minus the nihilism), the intimacy of emiliana torrini (without the affectation), the atmos of mountain-folk (without the.. er... mountains).. just peeps jamming good with weird and goodness - good winter-google band ..

to be honest, I woke up to the above^^, amazing how music hits you in that state.. never sure if the song sounds memorable purely because you were half asleep.. I still remember waking up to this song on rage:

#Take The Pressure Down
Indo got me thinking the other day about this after mentioning he was into rap and hip hop as a young fella.
- what was the first song you liked?
- what bands were you into up to the age of 18.
- did your parents hate it? What did they listen to?
- when you started going out did your musical tastes change?
- what do you listen to now? Changed tastes? Still a diehard? Do you revisit your teen years?
-
