Bubaiskull (1990 - 1993) was a rock band from Halifax, Nova Scotia.



Their main releases were:

INSEX
Drive By Suicide
Kitten

They also released various intentionally bad live recordings.


This is pretty much all they have left.

Insex Second Run Cover

UNRELEASED INSEX COVER

INSEX 2 BACK

At one point we thought INSEX might merit a second pressing. This was the cover art that wasn’t used.

Clown T-shirt

I found the original artwork today. On a piece of acetate. That’s right acetate. You don’t know what that is do you? It is old fashioned way of doing things.

Greg Clark. Don’t let anyone tell you different. There would have been no scene without Greg.

Here is an article from back then.

You can get t-shirts and a hat HERE. The tiny amount of money this will generate will go towards paying for hosting this site. hahaha. As if. I’ll end up paying for this site out of my own pocket until some kind of techno-apocalypse ruins the Internet. What will you do then in your neo-primitive, agrarian based society?

Get one. You can wear it while you scrabble about trying to eke a living from the blasted earth. Or you could get it cause you’ll look cool and no one will know what the hell the t-shirt is proclaiming your approval of. You’ll be wearing a secret. Feel superior!

This is a picture of Hardship Post (Seb Lippa, Mike Pick and Matt Clarke) and therefore has very little to do with Bubaiskull. Allison mentioned Matt’s heroic driving in this comment so I have an excuse to post this.

We played some away shows with these guys. They were always good. I heart the HACK e.p. especially.  

What is Mike DOING? :)

 

Sub Pop Surprise

Trim Crusts If Desired

To my surprise Eelmonkey was released on a Cinnamon Toast Compilation by Sub Pop. It’s the same recording as on INSEX so I won’t replicate it here.

UPDATE

Jonny Moyes points out that you can get the whole album HERE at a blog called WILFULLY OBSCURE.

Oh ho ho! Who is this Friendly Character?

Jolly Pasquale by Adam Cavill

Well if it isn’t old Jolly Pasquale! He was the mascot of our pretend record label. Remember how he used to say, “Thatsa Pasquale!”? You don’t? I’m not surprised.

Live Review from Eye

Bubaiskull Live Review from EYE

The EYE was or still maybe is a music mag from Toronto? The girl they sent seemed to like the show. So flattering, like water to us thirsty attention seeking missiles.

I think this might have ended up on a T-shirt or maybe not. I have no idea what this was for.
