BASH THE HORSE



Apparently a one-off DIY concern.  A one-sided single by the Marenski Brothers, 'Suck The Cats Brain Out', came out in 1975 and seems to have been the only venture into the music market by either the brothers or the label.  It had a catalogue number of KILL-001 and a matrix number of JB JH-001.  The 'A' side label looks to have been pasted on over a white blank, while the 'B' side label is a black blank.  As for what's in the grooves: I was expecting something punkish and crude, but it turned out to be an organ / bass/ drums version of the 'Je T'Aime' melody with electronically treated vocal effects - growling, a cough and so on - all over it.  Googling brought up nothing about the film referred to on the label, which adds to the impression that the whole thing was less than serious.  There are several copies online, however, which suggests that it was a proper 'release' and not just the brothers messing around and amusing themselves.  Any information about the single would be welcome.
