I've recently been pointed in the direction of this blog:http://thedoledrums.blogspot.com/It looks like this guy is picking up right where I left off with Kiwi Tapes (and doing a much better job than I did, I might add). So if you are still in need of your kiwi fix, please go there...

The only release from Roy Montgomery's post-Pin Group band (correct?). If you dig the Pin Group you will definitely like this pair of songs.

The debut cassette from this early 9o's Wellington band. Toured with Bailter Space, but relatively unknown. Pretty cool noise-rock stuff and this was actually sent to me by a band member, which is always a plus in my book. Sorry, no cover art. Check it out!

A major work from this New Zealand indie group, A Cuppa Tea and a Lie Down comes highly recommended to those in love with the sophisticated and delicate arrangements of the New Zealand rock scene's Flying Nun label sound. While some of their peers in the productive period of '80s and '90s down under produced edgy, loud guitar music inside the framework of pop, Able Tasmans temper their largely

Two quick updates with good news:1- The Divshare links are up and working again. Please remember that we are now working with a limited amount of bandwith. Please keep that in mind before you go on downloading sprees.Follow Up Note: Looks like the Divshare bandwith is already almost gone after 3 days.

When it comes to being a Kiwi Rock fan one of the toughest problems you face is having to pay out the ass for records due to the expensive import and shipping prices. Hell... it's one of the main reasons why this blog was started in the first place... to get this great music into the hands of people who just can't afford to pay those ridiculous prices.We're all guilty of downloading tons of this

DivShare has informed me that I have used 100% of the bandwith for the site and all downloads will remain inactive until February 16th. Please think of others before you go on download binges. There was plenty of bandwith when I checked 3 days ago, so either this site has doubled in popularity over 3 days or a few people went a little crazy.You will also notice the disappearance of more posts,

An early bootleg of the Terminals. Sounding as fierce as the always do in a live setting. Check out the extremely exuberant performance of "Batwing", which is a pretty laid back song on the Cul-De-Sac record. Awesome.

Much like the Pin Group's retrospective CD, this is an 11-track collection of everything that this short lived group (feat. Roy M and Peter Stapleton) released. Featured is the original "This Is Not A Dream" LP, 2 singles and 1 track that was originally contributed to the I Can Hear The Devil Calling Me compilation 7". Very interesting stuff.

Awesome sound scapes from Roy M of Pin Group & Dadamah fame. Much different than either of those projects.

This album will be sure to please fans of the noise and the skronk. Witcyst is an ultra prolific noise act that is obscure even by NZ standards releasing a ton of limited run CD-R and lathe cut releases. I am uncertain as to whether this is a collection of previously released tracks or a proper album, but there is certainly a lot of stuff on here.

After an 11 year recording absence, The Terminals, arguably one of the most under appreciated bands in the kiwi music scene, have returned with a new release... "The Last Days of The Sun". After having a steady stream of brilliant releases from the late 80's until the early 90's, it seemed that the Terminals had lost that spark by the time their last proper full-length "Little Things" came out.

This stuff is very early NZ music as you can see. It pre-dates anything on this blog by a few decades. Not as distinctly NZ as what would come in the 80's and 90's, but a nice artifact nonetheless.

One of Dead C's early Flying Nun releases. This album is much more song based than their other material.

A handy collection of 3 EP releases: A Question of Medical Ethics, Sam's Spaniel & Up The Down Stair Case. My personal favorite release from this duo.

By request, here is one of Dead C's official live releases which in my opinion has some pretty superior renditions of some favorites from their catalog, along with a few new tracks.

A compilation put out by Robert Scott on his tape label Every Secret Thing (ESP).It was released around 1986. It was taken out of print a short time later when Bill Direen objected to his songs being on it without his permission. Robert Scott had got the songs from Bats and Builders drummer Malcolm Grant . Electric Blood was the Scott brothers band as well. This the revised version without the

A pretty cool release for the noise enthusiasts out there. This is a collection of compositions that Bruce Russell recorded over a decade. This stuff is much less song oriented than the Dead C, it's more abstract and collage like.I've been getting numerous requests to see rare Dead C releases like "Clyma Est Mort" and "Eusa Kills" re-uploaded. I hope to do those soon so stay tuned.

In 1986 Brian Crook formed the Max Block, a four-piece combo with Rebecca Shanahan on drums and backup vocals, Robbie Stowell on bass, Brian on guitar and writing words and music and singing lead vocal and Maryrose Crook (his wife) on keyboard and singing backup. This is their only release. The sound strikes me as pretty unique, it has an interesting primitive quality to

As you may have noticed, I don't update this blog quite as frequently as I used to. If you are wondering why, it's because about two weeks ago I started a new job and I work ridiculously long hours. On top of that, just about every web page under the sun is blocked, so I can't do updates from work, which is what I used to do quite often at my last job.I have a big checklist of things I want to

Love Songs was a promising, if somewhat inconsistent debut, but New Zealand band Jean-Paul Sartre Experience really came into their own with The Size of Food. From the start, they fit pretty comfortably into the homespun pop tradition of the legendary Flying Nun label as practiced by the likes of the Clean, Straitjacket Fits and, especially, the Chills, but they exhibit a certain eclectic,

A great quality 2001 Live set by the Dead C. This is one long improvised piece that lasts for over an hour. Awesome stuff.

WCWC was the first of the compilation lps put out by the fledgling 'National Student Radio' group in 1987. This was an attempt by the managers of the university radio stations through NZ to get some new and exciting acts before the public and also to raise the profile for student radio. So each station ran a competition , and the two most popular acts from each town gotmoney to record a couple of

This EP title track is the choice cut from the album The Size of Food in an extended mix. The group that began in the '80s with a delicate pop sensibility similar to the Bats and the Verlaines transformed their sound into a bigger more sonically dramatic tone closer to Bailter Space or My Bloody Valentine with this release.Stay tuned for the Size of Food album sometime this week.

Now essentially a duo, with Jean-Yves Douet handling the drums and Jefferies handling just about everything else, on their fourth album the Cakekitchen cook up another fine set of the post-punk/indie rock with which they made their name: rock mixed with experimental diversions that's just slightly off kilter. They make no radical reinventions at this point -- even eternal guest performer

The Nocturnal Projections are the pre-This Kind of Punishment post-punk band fronted by Peter & Graham Jefferies. This is a CD collection which basically compiles the most essential material from very short lived career. There is some overlap between this and the previous albums posted ("Another Year" and "Worldview) but the versions included here sound much better, other previously unreleased

Here is a nice rarity ripped from vinyl. You might remember this group from their song "What's In A Name?" from the Flying Nun Box Set. That song, along with 4 other similarly jangly numbers are featured on this EP, being the band's one and only release. The rip isn't the best quality, I'm not sure if it's the condition of the vinyl, the pressing or my turntable, but the vocals get slightly

As mentioned before, here is the debut of a new section to the site where I highlight releases that are still in print that I think are well worth your money. I have no reservations in saying that contemporary New Zealand music isn't nearly as good as it was in it's heyday (but really, what is?) but this album, newly released this year really took me by surprise as an exceptionally good album.

Trash's third LP backs down from the comparitively pop-oriented feel of its predecessor (Gate) and returns to Trash's primary sound -- fuzzy, abrasive, and energetic rock jams, with shouting vocals and a healthy slop-rock influence. Mihikawa, however, presents this with a more experimentally noisy quality than the band's debut, at times betraying the influence of fellow New Zealanders This Kind

Recorded by the same duo lineup from Stompin' and again with Galbraith putting in a guest appearance on violin on the closing noise-then-peace instrumental "Escape From Fire Island," Devil can be understandably seen as almost the second half of a double album -- all tracks from both appear to have been recorded during the same series of sessions over the course of two years. Here, though, the

After an EP and a few compilation appearances, this is the first Skeptics album which was issued in 1985. The signature Skeptics sound was clearly already in place from the start on this album. If you dig Amalgam & III, you will definitely have a lot to enjoy on this one. This is a great warm sounding vinyl rip with a bit of surface noise and some cracks and pops, but it doesn't detract much from

Here is a pretty damn rare item. These are two sets that Toy Love played right after returning to New Zealand after their very unsuccessful stay in Australia where they recorded their first LP. Pretty excellent sound for a cassette that is over 20 years old. Some songs on here don't appear anywhere else. I wonder if Chris Knox has heard this, if he hasn't someone should send it to him!

The Fall are not an NZ band as you may know, but this record is an important piece of NZ history for a few reasons. For one it was recorded by Chris Knox, who used (I believe) the same 4-track he used to record bands such as The Clean & The Stones to record this show. Secondly, this record was released on Flying Nun and it eventually put them into a lot of financial trouble when Mark E. Smith (a
