The End-All Urgh! (A Work In Progress)

Feb 9, 2009, 12:58am The Lost Turntable

First things first - RIP Lux Interior... Now, onto the business, and this business was much, much delayed. In April of 2006 I put up the soundtrack Urgh! to much fanfare around the blogosphere (God I hate that "word") so much so that I had to get a server upgrade. Unfortunately, as it was pointed out to me several months ago those files were recorded on a turntable that spun too fucking fast. Since then I had been meaning to re-record the tracks and repost them, but life can be a bitch. Well, I [...]

URGH! A Music War - The Album - 1981

Mar 4, 2008, 3:47am Utahpolis

The concert film, URGH! A Music War , is a great little time capsule of the art rock scene in 1980. Punk had flung open the door to the underground and new-wave, post-punk, synth pop, hardcore and no wave, among others, were ready to burst out onto the world. The film is shot documentary style, but with no narration or explanation of what you're seeing. Just the jams, man. Just the jams. I've never actually seen it, and probably never will, considering that the legal issues involved in getting the [...]

Athletico Spizz 80 - Do A Runner

Dec 11, 2007, 12:39pm Jamie's Runout Groove

After the embarrassment of riches that was to be found at this weekend's Portishead curated All Tomorrow's Parties, I actually spent nearly all of monday not listening to any music, just to heal my brain and ears a bit. For those who are wondering, the Phead comeback was immense and beautiful, and the new stuff sounds really exciting. The rest of the lineup was pure genius from what I saw (only a rather odd solo set from Sparklehorse really disappointed me even a little), but it was the Sunday afternoon and evening run of *deep breathe* Oren Ambarchi, [...]

Doing a Runner...

Jun 18, 2007, 2:12pm Spoilt Victorian Child

Athletico Spizz '80 - Airships There were many incarnations of groups fronted by Kenneth Spiers (aka Spizz) including Spizzoil, Spizzenergi and Spizzles amongst a few others, but here we have a track from Spizz's (?) debut album from 1980 and was recorded under the moniker Athletico Spizz '80. Spizz bands had been around for a few years by this point and had already had their most commercial

The Super-Big Urgh! post.

Apr 30, 2007, 2:19am The Lost Turntable

I got an email from someone asking about Urgh! and I thought that in an effort to make things a bit more streamlined and easy to navigate, Id make this post which includes every single song from the Urgh! soundtrack as well as some bonus ones. I'm not the most organized person in the world, and it shows in the haphazard nature in which these tracks were originally put up. I hope this makes things a little easier for everyone. And if anyone is still looking for the long-deleted Urgh! Yahoo! Group (wow [...]
