The Mel-O-Tones - s/t MLP


Here's the first release of The Mel-O-Tones from Liverpool. Sounds quite different than the 'Melonheaded' 12". Perhaps it has to do that this one was 'recorded in glorious monophonic'. It gives a raw touch. Actually this is a 12" as it plays on 45RPM but it is listed in the LP category of Probe Plus Records.
Here's a bit more from the Headheritage review:
The general production quality is on a par with the Electric Eels and is likewise all the better for it and distinctly non-eighties.'Burton buzz' manages to constantly sound on the verge of falling apart and rip the shit out of Simon le Bon at the same time.What more could you ask for?

1. Bomb Sutra
2. Burton Buzz
3. Lice Age
