Sunburned Hand of The Man
 

It was due to a kind soul on here in the "Post rare records" thread that i discovered this group through the "Jaybird" release which is one of the most enjoyable things i have heard in a long time, and ive since got Z (which was so different i think i was kinda thrown and i didnt really like it)

so where next?

he only record ive heard by them that ive liked is 'headdress', which i fucking loved. i actually had them pegged as the band to watch after that one. but after that there records seemed so scattered and lacking in focus that i totally lost interest. so id go with headdress.

headdress
earth do eagles do

and that's about it, most of it is random hippie jams, if you heard two or three of their releases, you've heard 99% percent of their discography.

I've only heard "Headdress", but that alone is an astounding record. Which leaves one wondering what all have they done. & which I'm guessing Everneurotic is right, not much to fill a long discography.

headdress is okay...

see them live, iain knows about their records, ask him.

Saw them about a month ago and it was fucking amazing - probably the best gig I've seen yet this year.
Listened to about 4 of their albums afterwards and they were all pretty dismal. Will check out Headdress though...

Haha, I heard that the story a lot .

Only heard headdress, it's good.

Unmuzzled Ox - Sunburned w. Flaherty cassette on Ecstatic Peace is ace

SUNBURNED HAND OF THE MAN with BYRON COLEY 10.10.10 FEEDING TUBE NORTHAMPTON, MA

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0E48RZ4DAk&feature=sub

didn't something happen with this band.. they split up, and the founder of the band left (he posted on here, if i remember correctly) and sold a bunch of rare full band recordings and then the rest of the band dropped the "hand of the man" part of the band, or something...? Either way, I haven't heard anything about them in forever.

Chad Cooper left but the band didn't split, it's explained here
It's been a bit of a quiet year for sbhotm they've only had 1 or 2 releases that i can think of.

The latest Manhand release just arrived, i also got a couple of freebies including a poster and a picture (self portrait?) by John Moloney.

nice

Sorry, not this time.

Goz ain't drivin' this round, so we're stuck on the mainland.

well i got to see a stripped down version of sunburned at cafe oto in the end!

my sunburned stuff....

i like them a lot. Not only Headdress is worth a listen (this one in particular though), but also Jaybird, No Magic Man or Complexion for example.

no "random hippie jams" btw

i try not to think about it :o. a lot of the time i buy straight from the band and it's pretty reasonable but some of the older and more rare releases can be expensive on ebay. i have no idea really how much it all cost or what it's worth but i don't plan on selling it.

Thats a hefty haul Stu, what sort of percentage is that of the total canon?

i dunno maybe 90% or more.

I see the 11:29 LP here, just caught most of their set the other night opening for mv/ee, they totally kill. Stoked to see them 2x this weekend.

Also see a D Charles Speer 7", this connects NNCK with Sunburned, but really, Marc Orleans was in bands before sunburned.

What's their best from the hardcore collector's perspective?

i don't think i could pick just one release, the ones i like the most are:

London Zero
Fire Escape
A
Jaybird
Headdress
Wildanimal
Loose Bugs
Mind Of A Brother

also these are also high on my list:

The Secret In Disquise
No Magic Man
Close To The Bone
Magnetic Drugs

i'm missing:

Earth Do Eagles Do (cd-r)
Zample Vol.2 (cd-r)
Sunburned/Bill Nace (cassette) EDIT: i've now got this
Live at eagles nest (dvd-r)
Do it (book)
Do it pt.1 (dvd-r)
Exit Pigs (cassette)

and also these manhand releases:

F.A. Nettelbeck - The More I Drink The Better You Look (cd-r)
F.A. Nettelbeck - Killing Jar (cd-r)



so if anyone can help me out with these i'd be very grateful

Some Kind Soul has posted a Sunburned vhs release on youtube, and here it is
Its a QBICO video, apparently

kool! i have it on dvdr/cdr (Sopra L'Influsso)

hat and bread should be pleased if he sees this though as i remember him saying his dvd didn't work properly

http://www.sonicyouth.com/gossip/sho...ostcount=21382


EDIT: maybe the vhs is shorter in length as the dvdr i have of this is over 58 minutes long and this youtube video is only about 21 minutes.

EDIT#2: according to discogs both vhs and dvdr copies are around 60 minutes long...

Stu, that's quite the haul of SBotM you've managed to collect.

i have a couple of the early Manhand cdrs, but i think ended up misplacing one...magnetic drugs, maybe? got a few LPs scattered about too.

i am lucky in that i get to see them on some sort of regular basis, being in Boston.

All I have is this.

what the hell is it? black labels, white cover with paper glued onto it.

all I have is this.

That's cool Rob, it's their self titled LP http://www.discogs.com/Sunburned-Han...release/491486

I only have it on cd.

thanks BTW
