Review

Too much, too soon

Two contemporary voices on Radio Birdman’s impact, preserved with their original context.

Many groups are called “legendary”, usually by their manager or record label. Radio Birdman were legendary even before they split up. Their sound was rooted in American sixties rock — the Stooges and MC5 among the obvious influences — alongside surf instrumentals and wild garage rock.

The archive keeps this writing attached to the people and records it discusses. The aim is not just to preserve text, but to preserve context.
