RADIO BIRDMAN - The Essential Radio Birdman (1974-1978) 2xLP

This is the recut and remastered 2024 version. Sounds ever better than the OG from the 2001. If you're new to Radio Birdman or even a seasoned vet, this particular selection of songs is a perfect listen. The choicest cuts in an excellent sequence. Nice work, Sub Pop. -Jensen

Founded in Australia by Michigan native, guitarist Deniz Tek and vocalist Rob Younger, Radio Birdman was one of the crucial forebears of underground, high-energy punk. Blending the Motor City sound of bands like The Stooges and MC5 that permeated Tek's youth, with elements of surf-rock, Radio Birdman developed a sound that was truly all their own. And yet, their recordings have remained obscure and generally unattainable. Until now. This 22-track, 2xLP collection is the first release of Radio Birdman material in the U.S. in over twenty years.

This has newly designed cover art and contains remastered
tracks from Burned My Eye EP, Radios Appear, and Living
Eyes, as well as the live tracks from Paddo '77 that were included in the "Ashes" box set.
