In 1978, they were the seeds of New Zealand punk and the reason for the founding of \u003cstrong\u003eFlying Nun\u003c\/strong\u003e, one of the greatest record labels that ever existed. They carved out a big sandbox for everyone to play in, and their influence resonated not only in New Zealand but around the world. Not only do bands like Yo La Tengo, Guided By Voices, Sonic Youth, Pavement, and their ilk owe a debt to The Clean, but many of today's young upstarts such as Times New Viking, Eat Skull, and a band from China called Carsick Cars have the Dunedin godfathers deeply etched into their DNA.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI've personally witnessed four or five waves of rediscovery of \u003cstrong\u003eThe Clean\u003c\/strong\u003e in the years since I first heard them in 1986, and the stuff just continues to educate. Homestead's US issue of Compilation in the late '80s and Merge's double-disc Anthology from 2002 both laid out a complete rulebook, and a pretty in-depth one at that. Nevertheless, if someone else compiles them again in 2015, it's going to resonate just as strongly. Simply put, the music of the brothers \u003cstrong\u003eKilgour\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eBob Scott\u003c\/strong\u003e holds up pretty damn well in 2009 for anyone checking them out for the first or 5,000th time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1120\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7tf1wzg4rdE\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat's the sound? It's completely theirs but draws on everything from the psychedelic paste of Barrett\/early Floyd to vintage Velvets propulsiveness to almost everything else under the sun. In the case of the live staple \"Point That Thing Somewhere Else,\" here is a song that levitates any room in a way that makes you swear the band just stepped out of Conny Plank's studio in Germany with all the bulldozing power of Hawkwind. Their jubilance at times (the organ-laced \"Tally Ho,\" \"Beatnik,\" \"Whatever I Do\") makes the Banana Splits sound like Bauhaus while simultaneously exhibiting dark undercurrents, making Bauhaus sound like the Banana Splits.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThey created both full studio sound and lo-fi recordings before, during, and after the various waves of the 4-track revolution, making both recording modes work with no loss of the band's identity. As far as other influences, you can hear Arthur Lee, Shirley Collins, and the Rolling Stones, among others, but it's never a kind of forced appropriation; while some bands seem to say, \"Look at my record collection,\" in the case of The Clean, it's organic, seamless, and inimitable. Though hardly as prolific as The Fall, another maverick group of originality, The Clean have endured for almost as long while maintaining a completely unique, quality stamp that's often replicated but never quite mastered by anyone but themselves. They're also one of the best (and sometimes loudest) live bands I've had the pleasure of seeing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- \u003cstrong\u003eBrian Turner\u003c\/strong\u003e, New York\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0450\/3165\/3527\/files\/The_Clean_Flying_Nun_-2_1024x1024.jpg?v=1598867702\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2020-08-09T18:58:18+12:00","sort_order":"created-desc","template_suffix":"","disjunctive":false,"rules":[{"column":"tag","relation":"equals","condition":"The Clean"}],"published_scope":"global","image":{"created_at":"2020-08-24T20:29:16+12:00","alt":null,"width":1334,"height":1333,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0450\/3165\/3527\/collections\/The_Clean_Flying_Nun.jpg?v=1598257756"}},{"id":228332568727,"handle":"vinyl","title":"Vinyl Records | LPs","updated_at":"2022-05-20T19:42:42+12:00","body_html":"\u003cp\u003eAlthough Flying Nun Records is a music label, we also sell new releases, new music, pre-orders, reissues, classic albums and more from other bands and artists we like.

Anthology serves as a celebration of The Clean, a band whose influence extends so far beyond their New Zealand home that even if you have never heard of The Clean before, you have surely heard of some of the bands (Pavement, Yo La Tengo, and Superchunk, to name a few) who have been influenced by their unique blend of homemade garage rock, hook-filled melodies, and psychedelic experimentalism.
The album is a compilation of songs from acrossThe Cleanslegendary musical career, which began in 1981 and continues today.
HamishandDavid KilgourformedThe Cleanin 1978.Hamishplayed drums, andDavidpicked up a guitar and figured out how to play it as he went along. Various other folk passed through theKilgourbrothers orbit during the first two years or so beforeRobert Scott (The Bats) joined on bass.Hamish, David, and Robertall wrote songs and sang in The Clean, who made their first recordings for the renowned New Zealand labelFlying Nunin 1981.
Anthologykicks off withThe Cleanscall-to-arms debutTally Ho!; the story of the infectious tracks $60 recording bill is now legendary. From there, it continues with the early EPsBoodle Boodle BoodleandGreat Sounds Greatin their entirety. The hitsAnything Could Happen, Beatnik, and Getting Olderandlive favorites likePoint That Thing Somewhere Elseand instrumentalsFish and At the Bottomall serve up memories of the joyous noise that characterizedThe Cleanof that time. These recordings, mostly made by the band withChris KnoxandDoug Hoodat the helm of the 4-track, capture the bright, raw sound of a classic garage band.
After a brief breakup, the band recordedVehicle, their first full-length, in 1989.Vehiclewas made in three days and engineered byAlan Moulder(later to become one of the top producers of the alternative era, recording theSmashing Pumpkins, Nine Inch Nails, and My Bloody Valentine). The sounds ofVehicleand the two albums that followed it,Modern Rock(1994) andUnknown Country(1996), make up the bulk of discs 3 and 4 of the vinylAnthology.The Cleanused organ and other keyboards to mix bouncing pop tunes with continued experimentation.
In addition to selections from these full-length recordings,Anthologyincludes two songs released only on an American 7-inch and two that appeared on a bonus flexi-disc with theModern RockLP.
The Cleansstory is on-again/off-again purely by design. It suits the trios creative desires and keeps them clear of the machinery that threatened to interfere with that process from the moment they threatened to get awfully popular awfully quickly over thirty years ago.The Cleansmodern age has seen them splitting time and hemispheres:David Kilgourhas a reputable solo catalog;Robert ScotthasThe Bats; andHamish Kilgourhas been an endearing and enduring fixture in New York City, playing with assorted combos.
