Competition: Flipper Discography 2009-05-18 by Dave de Sylvia EMERITUS | 16 Comments | Legendary San Francisco punks Flipper release both a new studio album, Love, and a live CD, Fight on May 19, and to coincide with the release we've got prize packs containing the band's CD catalogue to give away.
The albums were recorded in 2008 with producer Jack Endino, during former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic's two-year stint with the band. That came to an end late last year when Novoselic left, citing family commitments. The group's difficulties with bass players once prompted frontman Bruce Loose to observe: "[it's] like Spinal Tap, except the bass player keeps dying."
The band have made an MP3 of 'Be Good Child,' the lead single from Love, available for free download ahead of release.

oh you havent listened to flipper yet? theyre amazing in my opinion, but they can be hard to get into. there aren't very many bands that sound like them, and they don't have a very accessible sound - or a very easy to define sound.

yeah, i just listened to sex bomb and they sound great
