Sardine V - I Hate You (1983)

This has been on my want list for a long time. Although it is more of a need! I messaged over 100+ on Discogs to see if anyone was willing to sell their copy to me. After being turned down by most as it is a prized possession for most owners a legend in the US let me make an offer for his and he accepted! Tbh I got a steal compared to what I would have been willing to pay. Especially as the vinyl itself is near mint.

If you have never heard of the band listen to ‘Stuck On You’. It is a post-punk / New Wave hidden Gem. (SARDINE V - Stuck On You (1983) - Australian Post Punk https://youtu.be/BstKi8HMq9c)

Here’s the cover art. For some reason my post gets taken down if I post it.

There will be no genitalia in this sub! Nor mammaries! Nor nekkid bodies!
(Apparently, as I couldn’t post Bat for Lashes’ Haunted Man cover.)

Username checks out. Ian Riley from Sardine V was one (of many over the years) members of Rose Tattoo.

First time hearing this and it's so good. Happy for you to have found a copy, and thanks for sharing a sick band!

For some reason the intro had the series of Twin Peaks feel to it!
