STRAPPING FIELDHANDS Wattle & Daub 1996

Discogs

Artist Biography by John Bush

Debuting in 1991 as a three-piece support act for the Frogs, Strapping Fieldhands made a few waves as one of the more charming -- albeit ramshackle -- bands in indie-rock's decidedly ragged lo-fi movement. The band, comprised of Bob Malloy, Bob Dickie, Jacy Webster, Sky Kishlo and Jeff Werner, gigged around Philadelphia and recorded their debut EP, The Demiurge, in 1991 for Siltbreeze Records. Several singles for the label followed, and Strapping Fieldhands released their first album, Discus, in 1993. The group played around the East and followed up with two ten-inch EPs released during 1994, In the Pineys and The Caul. The band's second LP, Wattle & Daub, was released by Shangri-La in 1996. Siltbreeze later combined Strapping Fieldhands' seven-inch output on the compilation Gobs on the Midway.

SPIN Radio Network Fall 1994

Behold I have a CD rarity for you to peruse - SPIN Radio Network - a radio show that was sent out to college radio in the 1990's which featured rare versions of songs from a plethora of bands worthy of a permanent place our hearts. These old shows were part of college radio's glory days - when SUM41 and Panic! At The Disco were thankfully nonexistent and the word emo meant screaming along to your favorite Fugazi songs, not how you wore your hair. Step back in time and remember when there was no interwebs, no iPods and all you could do was record this on a cassette.

Sadly, this is the only copy of the program I have. I think I threw the others away many years ago. I know, that was a bad choice.
In any case, enjoy.
