(LP) Radio Birdman - Radios Appear (C. 1977)

October 17, 2025

Standard Black Vinyl Reissue

Radios Appear was a groundbreaking album in Australian rock, heralding a major shift away from the country's prevalent pub rock scene and setting a precedent for the DIY punk ethos. Combining high-energy garage rock with punk rock ferocity, the album was recorded at the band's self-built Trafalgar Studios in Sydney. It was initially distributed by the band members themselves, often sold out of the back of cars at gigs. The album's release cemented Radio Birdman's legacy as pioneers of the Australian independent music scene.
