In regards to Germ - Parrot, just a mention that it has Nick Bullen of Scorn/Laswell collab. fame.. doin' a bit of bass on it. I think it sort of fits along the Scorn/Techno-Animal axis for those on that tip, as it has it's share of dark/brooding moments.. (and in general, I give it a thumbs up as well..)

Agreed!!! Here's a big YELL OF SEARCH out there Gpr-wise.... I am looking for the first eleven 12" releases on the label. Any chance of copies being out there either lying 'round a shop getting dusty, or someone wanting to clean out a bit of their collection?? And second GPR shout..... Anybody know what's up with that second SUNKINGS LP/CD that was mentioned waaaaaayyyy back? (my favorite of all GPR releases) John Quest ++Sex Magick, Designer Drugs & Machines that go PING!!++
