To launch this project, we open the dusty vaults as the legendary M Squared record label lurches forward that perennial genre busting favourite Scattered Order. This Mark 1 Version of the band finds original members Mitch Jones and Michael Tee combining for a sonic assault of samples, noise and guitars in this rare live performance.
Witness a brave attempt at DIY reverse engineering as MiniDiscs, cassettes and other deleted technology are used to demolish a bunch of new tunes plus old faves like Heat, Koo Koo Kamus and Mass Murder.
Shane Fahey, Peter Richardson and Steve Couri reconvene as The Makers of the Dead Travel Fast with a bunch of new tunes to be unfurled in game, untainted post punk fashion. Rare and live.
