AIRPORT NAZIS

from theUNKNOWN​-​pt​.​2 by GRAMPS

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    The limited edition new album all with hand printed (individually stencilled and stamped) covers made from recycled cardboard. Luck of the draw which colour combo you get…some super-limited yellow G'S left...

    theUNKNOWN-pt.2 is a NEW RECORDING of the remaining GRAMPS songs that fell into the void after they won Triple J's Unearthed and then disbanded at the end of 1998.

    What started as a merry idea to re-record these songs over a December weekend turned into a reality in 2011, as the band began recording demos and pushing towards actually making it happen 13 years later.

    Bassist Joel Coxall, Songwriter/Guitarist David Gibb & Drummer Jordan Lockett got together in a Port Fairy dairy to blast out some of the old songs onto tape, while Songwriter/Guitarist Gus Franklin threw together demos of the other songs during soundcheck on a European tour with the band, Architecture in Helsinki.

    The band then convened in a lonely beach house in Port Fairy, enlisting a helping hand (and caravan) from local producer and studio owner Chris Hedges to re-capture the raw edge of their long-lost teenage riffs.

    The album is a ball-tearing romp through 7 of the bands' un-recorded live classics from back in the day, featuring songs like the shoegazing anti-rape song, "When," to expletive-filled accounts of the bands' trip to Sydney to re-record their song for Triple J "Airport Nazi's" and "Trippin' Truckie," a riff-heavy folk tale about long-haul truck driving in Australia.

AIRPORT NAZIS
(Gibb/GRAMPS)

lyrics

Drinkin' on the Plane, gettin' served by lots of Smoo
Hangin' for a piss, but some bastard's in the loo,
We tried to take a souvenir, something to make us float,
Those Airport Nazi f@#kers caught me with it in my coat!

Goin' to the city for our first time away
Who would have thought things would have turned out this way?

Rum in the studio, Hookers on the stage!
Whitney got the finger, we're on a rampage!
Ansett pricks they nicked us, they threw us to the feds,
Scheiße Votze, Nazi C@nt, twistin' off his head!

Goin' to the city for our first time away
Who would have thought things would have turned out this way?
Goin' to the Crest to crash, It's a blast,
Turn around the corner to the ABC for a bash (for a bash)

AIRPORT NAZIS x3

Drinkin' on the Plane, gettin' served by lots of Smoo!
Hangin' for a piss, but some bastard's in the loo,
We tried to take a souvenir, something to make us float,
Those Airport Nazi f@#kers caught me with it in my coat!

Goin' to the city for our first time away
Who would ever thought things would have turned out this way?
Goin' to the Crest to crash, It's a blast,
Turn around the corner to the ABC for a bash (for a bash)

AIRPORT NAZIS x3
HUH!

GRAMPS Port Fairy, Australia

GRAMPS started in a shed in Port Fairy circa 1995, and progressed to a self-funded album recorded locally in 1998, which gave birth to a wealth of local classics, including 'Glitter-Eyed Girl,' which won Triple J's Unearthed competition for the Warrnambool region. The group disbanded in 99 to pursue other commitments, but are now back 13 years later with their remaining 90s songs on a new record. ... more
