Bonemen Of Barumba - Icons LP


I know the this one has been posted some time ago on the 80's Postpunk Underground blog, but I already ripped it and planned to post it. Anyway, I had a hard time ripping this one as the record skipped from time to time although the vinyl looks very clean. Think some cheap vinyl was used to press the album.
'Icons' is Bonemen Of Barumba's third and final release. First one is the self-titled 10" released in 1981, and then the 'Driving The Bats Thru Jerusalem' 12" followed in 1982.
The band split up shortly after the album was released due to internal tensions.
Get more info on Bonemen Of Barumba here.
Here's a page of one of the founding members, Mark Panick.

Hey, thanks for this very good record and for a very good and interesting blog in general. I have a request: a while ago you posted a link to the Dark Arts CD "Long Way From Brigadoon", but the link is now dead. Is there any chance you could post this record? (I absolutely love the 2nd Dark Arts album that you posted here.)

Hello Markus, thanks for letting me know. I'll try to rip my record and post it ASAP.

Markus said...

That is great...thank you very much (and thanks for making me become aware of this fantastic band).

Dear CG, could you re-post all you got by BoB?

Do you happen to have: the Effigies 'Fly on a Wire'?

I am in corrosive Killing Joke mood. Fire dancing in the snow on the New Years Eve...Build a fire!

Thank you for this album & generally for your efforts to keep PH goth-spot alive all these years. I like 'Icons', pretty good. Decent Chicago sound quality despite cheap vinyl pressing. All the best in 2015!
