There are two fine comps of these guys available from
http://www.citadel-records.com.au

They have been quoted by the likes of Mudhoney etc as the original grunge
band (but don't hold that against them.)

Kim Salmon (the main man) has some great solo things available, some of them
more horns-and-funk than grunge.

They reformed for a live-in-the-studio thing in Sydney eight months ago and
are doing two shows here in February.
