HINDU GODS ARE CALLING YOU!!! Grown Up Wrong! Records is thrilled beyond
belief to present the LONG-AWAITED anthology of material by the
legendary Lipstick Killers, who blazed a trail in late '70s post-Radio Birdman Sydney
before gigging with the likes of the Gun Club and the Flesh Eaters in Los Angeles where
they crashed and burned in 1981.

The Lipstick Killers released just one single in their life time - the perfect '79 Deniz Tek-
produced pairing of "Hindu Gods of Love" and "Shakedown USA" on their own Lost in
Space Records and Greg Shaw's Voxx Records - but a posthumous live album and a
couple of archival releases followed. It was all incredible. All that material is included here,
as is a plethora of additional stuff, all from the best-available sources (mostly original
tapes).

The Lipstick Killers' enigmatic and high-energy sound - heavily inspired by the
Stooges and the '60s psychedelic punk sounds of bands like the Thirteenth Floor
Elevators and the Chocolate Watchband - bridged the gap between Radio
Birdman and subsequent Sydney groups like the Sunnyboys (whose first-ever show was
opening for the Lipstick Killers), Lime Spiders, Hoodoo Gurus, the Screaming
Tribesmen and the Psychotic Turnbuckles. And of course they anticipated generation
after generation of other bands with similar things in mind, right up to today's '60s-inspired
freaks like The Straight Arrows, The Living Eyes and Thee Oh Sees.
