I decided to go on with the non-metal items just a bit longer so the strange days of January continue, this time with another post that counts as an exception to the Coven's general policy. This is the debut album of the Swedes The Mobile Mob Freakshow, originally released on CD by Primitive Art Records in 1994 and re-released in vinyl format by Primitive Art co-operating with Night Tripper Records in 2012. So I suggest that if you enjoy this, and have a vinyl player, buy the LP release. Especially since this is not a direct CD rip, this is ripped from a cassette dub! Which obviously leads to minor hiss and unfortunate tape wear which would not be on the proper version.
UPDATE: Was provided a CD rip, courtesy of brother Grev which includes scans as well, so all of you who have downloaded the tape rip might want to download it again! Sorry for the inconvenience and I still recommend considering the vinyl version if you have a player.
So what the hell is this then? The band (or label) refers to music on this album as a mixture of The Sisters of Mercy, GG Allin, (early) Misfits and Motörhead which is a pretty good comparison, I'm also reminded at times of Finnish Babylon Whores. Horror punk / death rock might be simplest description. Most of the fourteen tracks are short, from less than two minutes to just over three, exception being the over six minutes long, epic "Voodoo Maniac Zombie Girls" which is actually more The Devil's Blood than Misfits. Rumbly down-to-earth sound which is good enough, polished squicky clean sound wouldn't really work for this in my opinion. Cool release, recommended if you like someone among the names dropped or if you're adventurous.

@Velkaarn... if you need better rip, I've have that album in original CD
@Grev:
Cool, do you have the 1996 version with the EP as bonus or this 1994 one? I could do without the occasional tape fails!
Fun stuff. You sure this isn't a long lost Zodiac Mindwarp album?
@Velkaarn. The Real one, 1994 version. Also I have "Raving Dead" EP
@kingpossum:
It is isn't it? Like you probably noticed, Grev will provide us with a better rip soon. I also have their 7"EP dubbed... somewhere and the CDEP that was released after this album as original. Will probably do at least the 7" as soon as I find it!
@Grev:
Oh cool, I don't think there was much difference except covers and that 1996 one having "Raving Dead" tracks as bonus. I've got that one too. Somewhere.
Please, reupload the broken link, a thousand thanks!
Please reupload this broken link, a thousand thanks!
@Northernrituals:
The link is not really broken, rather it was taken down as someone reported it for copyright infringement. I'll reupload it to different service once and if that happens again it's going to stay gone. Not worth risking over.
