1/ V/A “BURN YOUR FINGERS ON THE SUN” 2XCD AUD$27.50

Just out on OFF THE HIP RECORDS/DARKLAND RECORDINGS we present a great compilation of current Australian Psychedelic bands. The fact that you may not know all of the bands on this compilation is meaningless, for once you have been exposed to their sound: you will surrender.

Burn Your Fingers On The Sun is a two-disc set that captures the remarkable depth of talent and scope of song-writing that exists within a growing collective of home-grown bands. Made up of bands from Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, Burn Your Fingers is an important document of the sounds currently emanating from the psych-flavoured Australian underground. Evident on this record is Syd Barrett-inspired psychedelia, jangly Byrds-esque pop, Spacemen3 drone and the noise and shoegaze sounds indebted to such bands as My Bloody Valentine and The Jesus and Mary Chain, all of which attests to the broad spectrum of musical styles captured on this collection.

Sydney-based Belles Will Ring, who have been creating a palpable buzz amongst critics and have just released their debut album Mood Patterns, recorded a track especially for the compilation that is entirely unavailable elsewhere. Similarly, The Black Ryder - a band comprised of ex-members of The Morning After Girls, and recently handpicked for the Australian national support for The Black Rebel Motorcycle Club – have submitted tracks that can also only be heard here.

Burn Your Fingers also showcases a large number of up-and-coming talents such as The Dolly Rocker Movement, who released two full-length albums through Off The Hip in 2006; Triple J Unearthed winners Richard In Your Mind; and indie pop favourites Treetops, who have played alongside The Vines and You Am I. Additionally, the compilation features unreleased and exclusive tracks from The Laurels, The Years, Starstream, The Sun Blindness, The Unheard (whose track here was incredibly recorded in 1989 and has not surfaced till now), and many, as yet, undiscovered gems.

Like the notorious compilations Pebbles and C86 before it, Burn Your Fingers On The Sun is a startling collection of compelling new music from its time.
