Kiwi Platter
:: Brother Love - King Acid ::
:: Cyclops - Light ::
If you’re hard pressed to come up with some New Zealand bands that weren’t off of the Flying Nun label, here are two. Both of these 7-inch releases were put out by a short-lived, Highland Park, NJ label, New World of Sound, back in 1993. First up is some fuzzed-out stoner rock, courtesy of Brother Love, of Christchurch, NZ. Members of this band were also in bands called Spacedust and Ape Management. The next song, "Light," is from a band called Cyclops, out of Dunedin, which featured members of Trash. I’d expound and pontificate on the virtues of each were I not in the midst of a fever and coughing fits, so this will have to do. I’m going back to hiding under my blanky.
