Shakedown Original Brisbane Punk 1979-83

Shake Records and Savage Music (essentially the same thing) was
the label run in Brisbane during the late '70s by David Holiday and
Peter Miller from Just Urbain, and Rod McLeod from the Young
Identities. The first release orchestrated by this brains trust was the
Cigarettes and Alcohol" 7" from local heroes The Leftovers.
With no-one within earshot waving chequebooks at them,
and having caught the DIY bug, they had nine releases in all,
eight 7"s and a live cassette. Roll call:
Just Urbain, Young Identities, Bodysnatchers and Kicks.

The bands here are among the most primitive, inept and snotty
DIY noiseto be found in Australia at the time. The singles sold
out their tiny handmade pressings (usually 100 to 200)
within months and quickly became highly sought-after.
These days they are next to impossible to find.
Almost the entire label's output is compiled here
(save a few songs from the Kicks cassette)

Thanks To Micheal for this great compilation of Brisbane bands.
