| | Demons Demonology CD Demons Discography of CDs
"Demons" mouthpiece Mathias Carlsson makes the intent of Demonology clear in his no-bullsh*t liner notes. "This compilation...is not an attempt to, for nostalgic reasons, make a collection to showcase a band's development or accomplishments over a number of years. F*ck that! Not interesting." Instead, "Demons" have grabbed 16 tracks from their often hard to find recorded past, remastered the lot, and made the remarkably cohesive result the Swedish outfit's third outing for Gearhead. Comparable to countrymen like the Robots or stateside kindred spirits New Bomb Turks, "Demons" tear at their material with garage rock abandon and boogie, but slick it back with punk revivalist aggression. "Lost Dog" and the snotty "What's This Shit Called Love" are in the wake of England's first punk wave, while the short but sweet "Beat On Me" and "Run Me Over" give the requisite props to the Stooges. (Check the awesome right-channel guitar solo on the latter.) It's also interesting to note the Misfits influence in "Riding on the Hearse," the unreleased "Luney Tune," or "Electrocute," which all date from "Demons"' mid-'90s genesis. Demonology is obviously a great resource for fans, with its mixture of gems that are out of print or never appeared before. But any supporter of the throwback garage punk aesthetic -- not to mention Gearfest attendees -- should also find plenty to shake a fist at here. Recommended. ~ Johnny Loftus

Purchase Demonology CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Groundhogs Split CD (1971) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; United Kingdom
Demonology
 $10.25 
Digitally remastered British import with four bonus live performances recorded for the BBC.
Always a bit unfashionable, Tony TS McPhee and his Groundhogs made a number of albums in the late 60's that succeeded purely on their instrumental ability. After the aptly named BLUES OBITUARY album, they moved on to guitar prog. SPLIT was a huge success; the opus-like length and popularity at live gigs guaranteed a good sale to fans. This spread as word of mouth went around that McPhee was an "amazing guitarist." In reality he was, and is, pretty nifty: he ...
| | Small Faces Ogden's Nut Gone Flake CDs (1968) England; Deluxe Edition
Demonology
$33.75 
The Small Faces present their four disc U.K. import reissue release OGDEN'S NUT GONE FLAKE.
Having begun their career as the archetypal Mod band, the Small Faces latterly embraced traces of flower-power's whimsy. Astute enough not to sacrifice their identity, the quartet retained a distinctive perspective, as evinced by a string of superb pop singles, including "Here Comes The Nice" and "Itchycoo Park." A sense of pop melody and adventurism culminated on this album which encompassed tongue-in-cheek fun ("Lazy Sunday") and passionate love songs ("Afterglow"). Steve Marriott's voice remains completely self-assured and the group's characteristic organ-based swell is often enhanced by P.P. Arnold's emotional backing vocals. Eccentric comedian Stanley Unwin narrates the concept suite "Happiness Stan," but the music is strong enough to withstand the novelty tag. OGDENS' NUT GONE FLAKE was the Small Faces' swan-song, at least until an ill-starred reunion, but it proved a fitting end to a golden era.

| | Son Of Spirit/Farther Along CD (2004) (Import) United Kingdom
Demonology
$17.79 
This two-fer from Beat Goes On features a pair of out-of-print Spirit LPs: Son of Spirit and Farther Along. Both originally released in 1976 on Mercury, these 22 tracks include some fine compositions, including "Stoney Night," "Magic Fairy Princess," and Lennon/McCartney's "Yesterday." This is an enjoyable reissue, but the absence of two original key members, vocalist Jay Ferguson and bassist Mark Anders, is felt. Most listeners would be better served with Epic/Legacy's 16-track Best of Spirit or the 1970 masterpiece The Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus. ~ Al Campbell
Digitally remastered collation of two original LP's on a single CD from the veteran San Francisco based rock band. They first appeared in 1975 and 1976 and featured the first time the band regrouped after the departure of lead singer Jay Ferguson. Randy California and Ed Cassidy charged forth with these two releases.

| | Simply Saucer Half Human/Half Live CD (2008) (Import) Canada
Demonology
$14.15
The culmination of a long, slow crawl back from forgotten obscurity to Canadian punk legend status, HALF HUMAN/HALF LIVE finds Simply Saucer alive and thriving. In their early '70s days, they never released an official studio full-length, and here they still get only halfway, with six studio versions of early songs never before committed to tape and six live versions of songs from the rarities comp CYBORGS REVISITED. This is no mere aging-punks reunion cash-in, however, as the band rips through the collection uncompromisingly and with the thrill of second chances.
