Finally back in print! GOD’s My Pal 7″ is a genuine Australian rock n roll classic, an iconic slice of teen-punk from a band who dissolved only a bit over a year after the release of the record but has had a huge influence on Australian independent music for 37 years – both the band and record itself and the members’ musical diaspora throughout the past three decades.
GOD were the Melbourne teenage quartet made up of Joel Silbersher, Tim Hemensley, Matty Whittle and Sean Greenway. They existed between the years 1986 – 1989 and released this 7″ on the Au-go-go label, soon followed by the Rock Is Hell 12″ EP and then by their sole full-length LP, For Lovers Only.
Upon their dissolution, members went onto bands such as Hoss, Powder Monkeys, Freeloaders, Patterson’s Curse, Bored!, Tendrils, Baby 8, Fancy Weapon and more. The story of GOD is bigger than God! But we shall keep it brief here.
The last time this single was issued was in 2014 in an edition of 800 copies, and it sold out immediately. Original copies from 1988 are almost impossible to find, and can fetch hundreds of dollars. It’s time to get this out there again in the format in which it was intended!! It’s time for people to get into GOD once again!!
Every copy also comes with a B and W reproduction of a promo photo the late, great Steve Morgan took of the band at the time, just as an added bonus.
