Product Overview
Please note that this record comes new unsealed.
Seven years ago C.O.F.F.I.N would enter Pet Food Factory 2.0 to record their seminal album Piss~Up.
They would be one of the first bands to record in the newly self-built studio run by Jason Whalley and would mark the beginnings of a lasting relationship between Jay and the band.
Featuring Ben Ulitzka Portnoy (vocals + drums), Abijah Rado (lead guitars + lap steel), Arthur Devo Flanders (guitars), Laurence Adams (bass), Ivor Rigney (yidaki / didge), and Aaron Moss (guest guitar) - the resulting record would unveil the band’s early explorations of grief, racism, mindless destruction, violence, and confrontations with Australian archetypes of manhood. With standout tracks: White Dog, Locals Only, Between The Flags, Done By The Dogs.
Rather than announcing authority on these themes, Piss~Up reflected on the band’s positions within them, the challenge of recognising their own contributions, and the wish to collectively broaden themselves for the better.
Unbeknownst to them at the time, C.O.F.F.I.N was sculpting their skill of drawing in unlikely crowds and conversation. An invitation for self-reflection, the chance to chat to each other, to consider the other.
It was the band’s first 12” vinyl and was self released to a limited run of 150 copies. However the highly anticipated re-issue is finally here through Legless Records!
