Spacemen 3: For All The Fucked-up Children Of This World We Give You Spacemen 3 12″ (new)

Description

In 1984,Spacemen 3made their first-ever recording session and sold a few cassettes at now-legendary, incendiary gigs. Growing out of the dual guitar attack ofJason PierceandPete Kember, the band’s three-piece line up withNatty Brookeron drums offered a liturgical take on ’60s psychedelia, bare-knuckle blues and stunning feedback.

This early glimpse into theSpacemen 3cosmos crafted by andFor All The Fucked-Up Children of This World… captures the band’s unorthodox approach to rock ‘n’ roll with nuance and power. While the raw atavism of “Things’ll Never Be The Same” and “Walkin’ With Jesus” would be scaled back considerably on later recordings, the one-chord propulsion of “T.V. Catastrophe” and hardwired stomping of “Fixing To Die” draw from a primitive force that served as the impetus for the group’s formation.

For All The Fucked-Up Children…remains the perfect introduction toSpacemen 3. Not only do these demos reveal the auspicious beginnings of two teenagers born on the same day in Rugby, England, but also compelling clues that point toward the exploration and eventual refining of their signature sound.
