Line-up: Mike-voice, Brad-drums, Neill-bass, DJ-1st guitar & bass, Arnette-other guitar.
Former band members featured are founding drummer Shane, guitarist Roger & bassist Neill.
Collected 7 inches with various producers & studios compiled into a full-length cassette self-release (see above pic), later picked up by Wild Rags as their actual last release before the label went broke due to incarceration of label owner - making their CD version of the release very rare. This was the last release ever by Wild Rags. The circumstances stiffed the band, so they had to self release it on their own label again. The Wild Rags release was in a jewel-case with high quality slick card stock for the inlay, and the album title was added to the cover art, which remained with later releases. Only the original cassette release had no album title on the cover.
The subsequent self-release was packaged like a mini vinyl LP - in a slip cover, but the band's own WarWax label replaced the Wild Rags label & the album art on standard photocopy. A high quality vinyl black on white bumper sticker was included in 1000 copies of that release. Later, the CD was distributed by Sensual Underground Ministries with the artwork on higher quality card stock on their own label, but without the bumper sticker bonus.
The art was done in a single sitting by guitarist-tattooist DJ who was supplied with high quality blotter LSD by a mortician after band rehearsal. His original art was called Eternal Cycle Of Filth & printed as white on black T-shirts. It was later changed to Post Apocalyptic Doom Attack when used as the album cover art. The album title was used as a nickname for drummer Brad as Post Apocalyptic Drum Attack.
The song Post Apocalyptic Doom Attack wasn't yet written, and is instead found on the Human Is Shit 7 inch released 2 years later.

Band line-up: Mike-voice, Brad-drums, Timmy-bass, Greenaway-1st guitar, Arnette-other guitar.
There's nothing rare about this material nor unreleased. It's all been released before - officially with all performers knowledge & consent. Most tracks are all from 1999 Future Is War album, while the last two were from 1996 Lost On Earth EP.

Considered by many to be the band's last official recording before it self-imploded & never re-organised again with any amount of stability, this is the final swan song of a legendary, yet very obscure band that always teetered on self-destruction, but attained well-earned respect by its peers. For as obscure as this band was, it was recognized as an explosive fire-storm of sou... Read More

Highly regarded as a definitive album by this particular line-up, the material has been called scary & dangerous by other musicians. The recording took place late at night & the band members were tired from moving into a new rehearsal house, but the band's tightness & knowledge of their own material overshadows any mistakes. It was engineered by a guy known only as Ed in his ow... Read More

Recorded over Halloween, the sound engineering is sub-par & uses triggers at the sound engineer's insistence, which the band protested against. The triggers went off randomly, screwing up the beats per minute & they also were clicky & just didn't sound good, providing an inauthentic sound that the band didn't sound like live. The guitars were also divided, and that kind of sepa... Read More
