Fucking hell - fun! What do you think this is, the bourgeois mother's knitting forum? Punk rock is about pain, and shouting and cod-anti-capitalism! Not about fun! What are they teaching you lot at school, eh?

Well, a short stint in the army should sort out that attitude, young man. Off you trot.

I saw a clip on youtube before where the hospitals play (it was wrongly credited to coachwhips... a much better band btw...) and the guitarist hits the club owner over the head with a guitar...

It's not expensive on eBay because there's been three pressings, the last of which was only recently exhausted. And now it's also on CD for the first time thanks to Meds. ...Jocks & Jazz is tremendous, but Hairdryer Peace in particular is a masterpiece. My favorite album of 2008. Anyone who dismisses it after a casual listen or two is being unfair to themselves as much as the band. There is a very unique sort of genius at work behind this band. I've got stories for days. Don't have time to type 'em now.

I reckon at least 9 people would own it in Sydney.... I think the Wire put it in their top 5 of the year? I thought that was pretty strange. I'd put it in my top 10 LP's from last year. Maybe top 3 along with Brainbombs - Fucking Mess and Lakes - Cloven.

Downloaded Hairdryer Peace and it IS pretty damn good. Especially "Getting Out Of Bed".

Great record. In a way I wish Psychedelic Horseshit would make something of the same calibre. The only thing that they could have done with is a better recording, but hey, it's all ok.

The message board of a band that peaked 20 years ago is not the most natural place to find a whole mess of people geeked about a self-released Hospitals record. But in corners of the internet where that did happen, it was observed among the group that many listeners required many listens to gain traction with it. It's an insidiously sneaky grower of an album for a lotta ears. With today's listening habits being so bad (preview mp3...this is a long intro...NEXT!), it does immediately alienate a lotta people. Anyone with really good headphones should try it in those, too.
