NUMBERS, San Francisco, 2001. Absolutely my favorite band on the planet that year.

NUMBERS, San Francisco, 2001. Absolutely my favorite band on the planet that year.
Usually it’s pretty easy for me to lay my hands on songs that I hear, even vinyl-only stuff, that I want to roast up on my own CDs and play on my mp3-only podcast. But certain songs are bedeviling, and I can’t find them anywhere.
Right now there are three that I shamelessly would love to “own”. If you happen to have mp3s of these, and would like to swap them for things that you’re looking for that I might have, please drop me a line here.
JACKKNIFE – “Come On”
THE PLAYTHINGS – “Coloured” (version from original NZ 45)
NAKED SPOTS DANCE – “Crescendo/Circle Moon”
Neo Boys Sooner Or Later (1978-1983) is finally happening. Up for preorder in the K shop today (with collectable button and poster) this rad, gatefold double LP collection of the PNW’s first all-girl punk band rings with feminist glory and is achingly good.
Read more about the Neo Boys (and check out the preorder) HERE.
This mix, available on Mixcloud as “…and the Maggots Dance, 1…2…3 from the Dead C’s Bruce Russell was made over two years ago on behalf of an online and terrestrial radio station and Flying Nun Records. It’s a selection of ultra-rare New Zealand small-indie label postpunk, punk and experimental rock music from the 1980s.
It’s, as Bruce says repeatedly on this nostalgia-laden, hour-long show, "phenomenal”.
He’s a terrific jockey of discs, and if anyone knows if he’s done any similar shows like this please let me know where I can hear ‘em.

JACKKNIFE, “San Francisco Beauty Queen” 7"EP cover from about 1992 or so.
I can’t find any online evidence that “Dogshit” by ANTLER JOE & THE ACCIDENTS ever charted in any country, but this 1981 slop-punk from Fort Meyers, Florida certainly deserved likely more attention than it got.
Perhaps it was just a little too vile for the times – or maybe it was the fact that they only made 300 of their lone 45.

WINGTIP SLOAT review by SUPERDOPE editor JAY HINMAN
By now you know that Jay has made all his Superdopes available for easy download. But did you know he also helms an unbeatable podcast featuring “punks, girls, pop, garage, freaks, proto-punkers and more”? His most recent broadcast included 2013’s stellar über riot grrrl tuffs SKINNY GIRL DIET, who have a terrific new split 7” with ETHICAL DEBATING SOCIETY on Happy Happy Birthday To Me. SKINNY GIRL DIET sound as potent as anything else listed on our tumblr (listen below). Someone write a fuckinrecordreview!
Thanks for the tip Jay.
But enough about them, do you think WINGTIP SLOAT ever made their 154 or Vs.? Mail Jay at thejayhinman@gmail.com and let him know what you think.
Very kind words from Fuckin’ Record Reviews about the ‘Dope and about our latest podcast, which you can download at https://soundcloud.com/jayhinman/dynamite-hemorrhage-radio-1.

Outstandingly primitive, ridiculously foul-mouthed GORIES drummer Peg O’Neil, circa early 90s.
