Aussie glam bands

What about De'Mont, Roxus, Southern Sons and Rick
Price? I've got many a tape/12" CD. Apparently
they're hard to get hold of in Oz? Really?

I can help out with:
celafain vain - 4track demo
celafian vain - s/t full album
roxus - live (debut ep)
roxus - nighstreets
juno roxas - far from here (solo after leaving roxus)

D'mont... almost impossible to find an original
Rick price and Southern Sons, i don;t have but are not that difficult to find.

BTW, are people after originals of cdrs?

cheers

i was thinking... if there is anyone out there who can upload or dropload (or whatever you guys do)... I will send you all the cds of these albums and you can put them up, as I don't know how all that stuff works.

Anyone keen for a cdr trade... drop me a PM or an email.

cheers

Roxus - Nightstreet
D'Mont - Body Language (and lots of photos and the
T-shirt somewhere)
D'Mont- Half live/have somewhere else (contractural
aggrement.)

Great Ozzy rock circa'90s. Better than Screaming
Jets, anyway,

HEY LINDSAY THANXXX A MILLION MY FRIEND!!! PERHAPS THE BEST CAN BE IF YOU PUT THE SONGS IN MP3 FORMAT IN MY FOLDER IN G-MAIL GLITZINET ACCOUNT!!! (THE PLACE WHERE YA GOT THE HEART THROB MOB STUFF). ABOUT ROXUS I DO HAVE A DEMO FOR DE ARROW WHICH IF I AIN'T WRONG IS PRE-ROXUS!!! I CAN PUT IT IN THA FOLDER FOR ALL WHO WANT IT!!! I ALREADY HAVE THE ROXUS STUFF!!!

[glam_junkie]

hi Marky...i'll give it a try. I won't get the chance to do it here at work, and my pc at home is s-l-o-w so it may take me a little while. That's why i offered to put them to cdr.

DeArrow... i don't have any of their stuff, but I think you're right - pre roxus. Some of the members of Roxus went on to form Chocolate Starfish, and released a few albums.

DE ARROW UPLOADED IN MY FOLDER FOR GMAIL GLITZINET ACCOUNT!!! MY SISTER'S HUSBAND WAS A GOOD FRIEND OF THE GUYS WHEN HE LIVED IN MELBOURNE IN THE 80'S!!!

Thanx to the people who said they like "The Deadthings", i appreciate it, means a lot.

As for Aussie bands;
That Celefane Vain bio is hilarious, very funny indeed.I really liked their stuff. I'm pretty sure that when The Sebasrockets started they were playing a few songs from the Celefane Vain days. The singer from Celefane Vain was the origional bassist from the Voodoo Lovecats (in the demo era) he went on to another band recently called the R.I.P Rides, we played with them a few times live, they were a bit more AC/DC vibe, but still cool. They recently called it quits.

De-Arrow is pre & post Roxus, they had Dragan Stanic in De-Arrow and a couple of De Arrow songs made the Roxus "NightStreet" album, when Dragan left De-Arrow to join Roxus, Joe Cool (original Roxus gtrst) joined Dea Arrow, it was kind of weird. De-Arrow kept playing a while and there are quite a few demos that were recorded. But all the people i know keep them well guarded unfortunatly. I had heard they were looking to release them on a european label, but haven't heard much more about it in a while.

There was also another Roxus album recorded after "Nightstreet" but never released. It was recorded with Jeff Paris as co-songwriter and producer. It is a full album, i have heard a couple of tracks and they were excellent. Wish i had a copy. Again i heard they were looking for a euro release of it but who knows

A few other cool bands were
Empire (had 2 cd's - 1 on Long Island, 1 on Escape)
Cyclone Tracey - (had 2 Cd's)
Shotgun Alley - released an EP
Among Theives - released one CD

When Hell Sleazes Over by The Deadthings is ace!

Another Australian band i loved were Southern Sons. Them guys had melodic AOR down to a fucking TEE!!!! Amazing band those were.

I never knew about the Lovecats/Sebas link.
that's an interesting one. Was that for the Punk n Disorderly era?

I've got the Shoutgun Alley cd too (Growing Menace).
