HELTER SKELTER - Consume (3 track tape)


This is one of those back of a postage stamp posts; were I know absolutely fuck all about the band Helter Skelter, other than these 3 tracks should appeal to those of you who liked The Doctors Children and Only Ones posts. It’s that sort of sound, good stuff me thinks. An internet search told me that there was a band on Rough Trade records with the same name who released a single in 1989 called Last Train, and that someone is selling a copy on eBay for £5.99, is it the same band? Who knows, it could be as Consume was released in 1990, also on eBay some one is selling the 7” of this for $9.98. It’ll cost you nowt from here, if you fancy giving it a blast.

    Doctors Children begat King Buffalo begat Helter Skelter. Yes it is the same band as on Rough Trade. All fronted by the mysterious and now disappeared Paul Smith. Check out `youtube for some vids of the latter two bands.
