Radio People

From the salty tear-infected circuit boards of Cleveland, Ohio, comes 'Radio People', Sam Goldberg's synthwave commission for the ever-excellent Digitalis imprint. For the latter half of the '00s he's been a part of the same underground noise scene as Emeralds, running his Pizza Night cassette imprint and releasing a handful of rare tapes on Gneiss Things, Wagon and Weird Forest, among others. Radio People is a relatively recent handle he's been using for a trio of now out-of-print cassettes on Pizza Night, and this is the first vinyl product of that chemically imbalanced sound.

One of the best hardcore/post-hardcore/post-powerviolence/screaming/gut-wrenching awesomeness/whatever bands in Australia, it consists of Aaron Clarke on guitar and vocals, John Irish on drums, and Abel Cross on bass and vocals. Roughly based in Sydney.
