Whats For Sale (1996) - LUL


Scant information available on this release, other than it was recorded at Birdland and released on Paper Mill Records (PMILLCD.721380). The band is ostensibly LUL as that's what the booklet and inlay have labelled in common - the spine reads 'Automatic Girl', so either this was the tentative title of the release or I just got a copy with the wrong booklet. The disc itself has three signatures on it! Another delightful purchase from the Kilsyth salvos, where I was hoping for the kind of records advertised in the seminal Beanz Baxter fanzine. This isn't quite up to that ilk, but is actually pretty good indie rock, once you get past the Bono-isms of the lead singer (that voice just doesn't sound right!) There are even some Sonic Youthisms on the title track. Even 'Lost Soul' is kind of Jawbreaker-esque! Any info on this group much appreciated in the comments.
