 RADIO BIRDMAN

WARWICK GILBERT, RON KEELEY, CHRIS MASUAK, DENIZ TEK, PIP HOYLE, ROB YOUNGER

plus JOHNNY KANNIS

Australian proto-punk band whose high-energy sound 

(inspired by the Stooges and MC5) became influential to punks the world over. 

Although the best-known band of the early Australian punk scene of the late '70s was 

the Saints, the first band to wave the punk rock flag in the land down under was 

Radio Birdman. Formed by Australian émigré Deniz Tek (originally from Ann Arbor, MI) 

and Aussie surfer-turned-vocalist Rob Younger in 1974, Radio Birdman's approach 

to rock & roll was rooted in the high-energy, apocalyptic guitar rant of the Stooges and MC5, 

sprinkled liberally with a little East Coast underground hard rock courtesy of Blue Öyster Cult.

RECORD EX but (please, read above description)

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

This is primal (and prime) Radio Birdman, with Deniz Tek and Rob Younger firmly 

ensconced in the eye of this guitar-fueled hurricane. Tek's originals are pretty strong, 

especially the grimy tale of urban desolation "Murder City Nights" and the noisy 

freak-out "Descent into the Maelstrom." 

One of Australia's great rock & roll bands in all of their glory...(AllMusic)
