Rough Trade the label were the only ones to show any interest in the band back in the day though sadly we lacked the necessary dance element.
The single is only legendary? They’ve forgotten to put iconic and seminal.

To make to move from CD to hard drive a little easier as many ripping and playback programs rely on Musicbrainz for their song tags.
Not for nefarious purposes mind.
I’ve learnt how to do link annotations and I’m going to use them!
Which is okay until you realise they don’t work with mobiles, tablets and some embeds. [They don’t seem to work on YouTube any longer either].

A preview of the CD from Firestation Records of Berlin.
From their Facebook Page.
Early 80s Drumatix and home made synth music from the puntastically named DEF today in the Awesome From Horsham series.
For Jammie Git this is where it all started. Back in 1980 he was known as Kevin Truggle who along with Mutt Monrow and Rat Gonad were part of a musicians collective called The Krud Organization. This track credited to H.P.R was possibly released under the band name of D.E.F (Deutsche Englische Freundschaft), a homage to the mighty D.A.F. James Calderwood
Everyone’s a critic.
The eagle eyed will spot that the screen capture is from a few days after the post as originally there was just a link to the Firestation Records website.
Because we cocked the song up so much at the gig that we can’t use it whole.
The first clip, and dodgy performance, is from a Collyers gig in October 1988 organised by Mark Crane of This Idiot Glitter who also played along with Loveless, Spiralhead and, of course, The Happy Potato band. The other video is from Champagnes nightclub in February 1989.
We garnered a few radio and podcast plays on this Radio Andrea show, also available as a podcast. It was presented by a chap who used to see us play in Brighton back in the day who speaks a little about the band as well as playing Jim’s choice of a couple of tracks on the second broadcast.
The show’s embed seems to have bitten the dust so here’s the drastically abridged version.
The free downloads mentioned ultimately became part of The Gits Drink Milk leftovers collection.
And more!
The show also streamed across the pond in San Francisco on Pop Goes The Crunch.
