Popis - FLY-BLOWN & MAGGOT RIDDLED:
This compilation represents a trawl through the Maggot Slayer Overdrive archives. The majority of the recordings have not previously been released in any form, although several of the tracks have found their way onto various compilations over the years. Maggot Slayer Overdrive were - or perhaps still are - a band on a mission; the only real snag being that no-one, not least the band members, knew exactly what that mission was. It may have been a quest to drink the squat bars of Europe dry, it might well have been to warn an unsuspecting public of the perils of rampant vinegar flies and vengeful giant cephalopods, or possibly merely to thrust a custard pie into the sometimes-austere face of the 1990s independent hardcore punk music scene. Regardless, during the 9 long years of their original incarnation, Maggot Slayer Overdrive (henceforth referred to as 'The Maggots,' or simply, M.S.O.) produced a scattered selection of official musical releases, these primarily being 1993's 'Soggy,' one half of a split LP with Bristol's Corpus Vile, released on MCR UK, and 1995's 'The Angry Buzzing of a Million Flies' EP, on the German Epistrophy label. There were also several compilation appearances, including covers of Crass and Subhumans songs on their respective 'tribute' albums (versions of 'General Bacardi' and 'Religious Wars' - both of which are available to listen to via online media platforms). However, by the time the musical activities of the band finally ground to a halt following a tour of the West Coast of America in 1998, several unused recording sessions had been completed which by and large were to remain overlooked and in due course forgotten about over the years. Which brings us to the present, when, to celebrate the fact that the somewhat-implausibly still-living last line-up of the band have agreed to reconvene to play a few gigs in 2023, it has been decided to give some of these recordings a dusting-off and belatedly bestow on them a vinyl and CD release. Thus, with a little assistance from your Friendly Neighbourhood Heretical Hunchback, plus a remastering job by legendary Riot City producer Steve Street, we present to you 'Fly-Blown & Maggot-Riddled: A Selection of Audible Chunks from the M.S.O. Archives'... The CD version is limited to 200 copies and includes a 3-colour 12-page booklet and 2 bonus tracks.
