about

I Give Birth To Your Death LP was never released.
Recorded in 1997 the band imploded shortly there after.
It was to be the bands 3rd release after a cassette and CD.
Here the band are still delving into ' Art Rock ' with the sonic brutalist approach of Forked Tongued Pressed and Greasy there is also a shift to the melodic in Cut Me Down for example and the experimental ' cut and paste ' approach of the song I Give Birth To Your Death - recorded partly on cassette dictaphone and completed in Zen Studios.
The track Graves of Saints see's Harpoon reach their peak with the perfect blend of melodic pop played with a dark weightyness that not many bands could/can achieve.

To quote Dead Moon's Fred Cole's reaction to the band live " the tanks !, the tanks ! "
