I HEART MY VINYL: :Le Shok
Posted by Krist under I HEART MY VINYL , MISC , MUSIC , MUSIC LINKS[4] Comments
WHAT RECORD I HEART:
LeShok – S & M, Slamdance Cosmopolis 01, Recorded 2000, Released 2001
WHY IT’S SPECIAL:
This new wave punk band featured members of the Locust and released this 3 song 7 inch in 2001. I’ve never played or opened this record once so who knows what the 7 inch inside looks or sounds like. On the side of the record, keeping it closed, it has a little sticker that says;
“This 7 inch has a BONUS song pressed onto the record cover. The playable cover DOES NOT play on all turntables… IF IT doesn’t play on yours we suggest you go to your friends (sic) house and try her record player cause the song is fucking great.”
How fucking awesome is that??
WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE:
WHAT’S ON IT:
“No Fun at the Beaches”
b/w
“I Want the Beat”
“White Outs”
I am a little hard pressed to find a track by Le Shok, let alone one that was one this 7 inch… anyone got a le shok song out there that I can add to this post??
I did find this..
how fucking brilliant is this video? even with him getting punched in the middle of it.. Oh SD, how can I not love you and your ridiculous hair.
Anyone else got this one??

Here’s a link to the song she prefers whips. Are you sure the whole secret playable song on the cover isn’t a joke? Sounds like they just put that on there so people would fuck up their styluses.

thanks you’re the best.

It is, it’s just that the cover – being not perfectly flat or solid – warps, and therefore you have a pretty tough time getting to listen to it. MP3s of it are online, but to be honest, there are much better songs pressed to vinyl, so it’s no big loss.
