This is the discography of the Meanies Singles!
(mostly taken from ANDA-160 "The Meanie Of Life")
"Darkside..." was one of the first songs we ever learnt.
"The Reason Why" is about as close as we've ever come to a ballad.
"Lyin'" is one of our favourites. It got some tasty reviews, too, and you've gotta be happy with that.
Finally we released a single that didn't have a song with Meanie in it's title on it. It did have "Meanie Surprise" listed on the cover, but that's exactly all it was - a Meanie "Surprise!". Quite silly, realy.
This was supposed to be released in advance of the "Come 'n' See" album. But Ringo went overseas and we couldn't release the album without Ringo. We had a bunch of new songs we wanted to record so we went and did "Gangrenous". Released May 1991. 1500 only. Deleted.
This was a single given away at a gig in Sydney and one in Melbourne. "Probe TV" is one of our oldest songs. "Record Sale" is about something we hate - the death of vinyl.
Released August 1991 on Sympathy For The Record Industry in the USA. 1500 copies, red or white vinyl.
This Canadian played noticably slow, but it got some good reviews overseas. Maybe we should've taken a hint.
We never expected that we'd have a single out in Finland! Our first European release. On the mighty Jukkim record label. "Them" is from "Come 'n' See". "Goodbye Man" is an alteernative version of the track from "Come 'n' See". "Mantra" is from the "Oh God pt 3" cassette.
The new stuff!
A couple of newies and a live version of "Play The Slay Bells", recorded by JJJ at the Melbourne Big Day OUt, 24/1/93. Produced by Chris Thompson.
Not sure when this one came out. The back cover appears to be a Vic Dana 7" with a few alterations c/o Linky's biro.
Conan / Laymans Guide To Heaven / Hologram / Hat Of The Gods.
Sorry guys, i can't find my copy of this one.
10% Weird / Hollywood Dreamin' / Family Tree / Aim In Straight Lines.
