"Howdy punkè rocke fans, welcome to Forced Communal Existence -- the wonderful and frightening world of Alien Nosejob's EP's and singles. Anti Fade and Agitated Records are teaming together to bring you a paint stripping, mind altering, rare collection of EP and compilation tracks recorded in various Australian bedrooms and garages between 2017 and 2022. The sound of goofy obnoxiousness will soon be permeating your bedroom airwaves and perforating your eardrums. Kicking off this long player is an EP that was recorded by Billy from Anti Fade in his childhood bedroom in July 2017. The songs came to fruition while Ausmuteants were on tour in Japan 2016. There was a lot of 'Wallaby Beat / Murder Punk' being played in the background while seeing the sites of Mount Fuji and 'Bar Fuck Yeah'. In between shows Jake was organizing the release of Danny Graham and Plastic And The EPs records on the label he co-ran Xerox Music. Both artists played parts in the sound and ethos of the Panel Beat EP. The goal was to make the songs sound unapologetically Australian without pretending to be something they're not. 500 copies were pressed and self-released, with a photo slipped inside each copy at random. Next is The Death Of The Vinyl Boom, which was self-recorded in a shed in November 2017. This is the only Alien Nosejob release to feature a cover -- Flyblown by Adelaidean arty weirdo band Jackson Zumdish. The idea behind this EP was to incorporate the simplicity and scrappiness of the late-'70s DIY Australian sound, but give them the complicated structures of prog songs. Recorded September 2020 during lockdown in one-man-band with a tape recorder fashion for a 20 minute unedited 'live set' video where all instruments were played one by one, sung and mixed in the space of a couple of hours. The HC45 7" was recorded at the same time as a disco 12" maxi. This EP came out in Feb 2020 and sounds somewhere between early Gang Green, Die Kruezen and the Beastie Boys old bullshit. Finishing the record is a cover by The Aints. Originally written by Ed Keupper for The Saints' Eternally Yours album, but it sounded too similar to Lost and Found. Originally released on 'ALTA' cassette compilation during the lockdown."
