Oh and one thing I love about Radio Birdman is that they were a legit 1st wave punk band, as in they weren't influenced by 1st wave punk bands and then got together and released an album, they were legit a formative band where one of their main members saw the Stooges play live, moved to Australia, and formed a band based on wanting to build something off of that. They have a sound that doesn't sound like the Ramones taken to the next step, they just sound like they were riffing off the Stooges and were a part of the movement that just so happened to be forming in 1977 and so what they were doing sounds organic and innovative.
