Tension - I only like you when I'm drunk

Another great Dirt Records release from 1995. Tension was Michael Mullen, Ross Neville and Ger Murphy who had previously been in Wheel and Not Our World. They also released a vinyl EP called "So You Say" which has one extra track that's not on this album. There's also some unreleased tracks on These Auld tapes here and here.

Amusment - and after optimism

Amusement was James Eadie. He was in Into Paradise and then I think at some stage he mixed live sound or played keyboards with The Idiots.

The Idiots

The Idiots were Brian Mooney, Andy Osbourne and Dec Costello. This was their only proper release, except for one side of a single that was part of the RoadRelish series.
There's more Idiots on The Wirewool, These Aul Tapes and DIY Irish Hardcore Punk Archive.
Gutarist/singer Brian Mooney is currently making music as Beautiful Unit.
This blog takes it's name from one of their songs.
