This came with a postcard and had side A going at 45rpm and side B at 33rpm. The labels had heavy psychedelic artwork by Tapio. On the inner sleeve it says HI MOM, but when you hold it upside down you get WOW IH!!! The test pressing for this one was fucked up, but then the pressing plant fixed it.

Recorded during summer 1995 in Pori at Aki's place = Sound Doctor Studio. Engineered by us.

500 made and gone.

 

TUNGO
Tungo /
Born To Search Cheese -7"Single
LaSaDa / Turtlep-003 / 1995

Black Vinyl and a big hole. First time including a postcard, which was cool cos there were 2 or 3 different ones circulating, but what sucked was the thin paper... Anyway, some heavy metal people actually got back at our "very evil" tune on side B ("you shouldn't play with those subjects if you don't know what you're doing" ... oh man) so suck my socks bebe!! Tapio did the programming, sequencing and guitars, while Mikko + Pentti do the growl-vocals.

Recorded during winter 94/95 in Pori at Aki's place = Sound Doctor Studio, and on 4trak at home. Engineered by us.

600 made and gone.

 

RIP-OFF DOKUMENTO
Rip-Off Dokumento -CD
Bad Vugum / Bad-54 / 1995

29 tunes from previous EP's + Dun-Delion cover

Definitely the lousiest "digital remastering" job in the galaxy (we didn't know nothing about mastering). We didn't want Bad Vugum guys to put this out, we thought it's gonna be a big fukin rip-off, hence the name. But it was the right thing to do cos people bought it and some even liked it. This included all our previous EP's, compilation stuff and a bonus ("Kotona Hissukseen" by Dun-Delion, which was a mindblowing, psychedelic proto-jazz-core band from Helsinki).

500 made and gone.

 
SUONIHIUKSISTO YÖKABAREE
Suonihiuksisto Yökabaree -7"EP
LaSaDa / Turtlep-002 / 1994

This was actually a compilation of wierd tunes by DT side projects. Every "band" included at least one of us. DT's tune was "Hetrag". This came packed in a real doggy poop bag and included the comic book IHMISSAATANA #1 by Pake Koppinen.

300 made and gone.

JOHN PEEL SESSION
John Peel Session -7"EP / MCD
Bad Vugum / Bad-45 / 1994

1. Toothpaste Tastebred
2. Tungo
3. Hedless
4. Nohand
5. Ratua
6. Gnülf

The security guard at Maida Vale studios almost didn't believe we were actually coming to record on a sunday and had a hard time letting us in. And the engineer was grumpy and went away in the middle of the session! But the session producer Mike Engles was super friendly and helpful. The studio we recorded in was their "small room" for this kinda "minor projects"... But it was huge anyway, no shit, you could play football in there! We never met John Peel himself, it was all very "in-out". And they didn't like the word fuk in our lyrics.

Recorded and mixed in 5 hours on 9.10.1994 at BBC Studio / Maida Vale, London, UK. Engineered by Simon Askew and Mike Engles.

500 7"'s and 500 MCD's made and gone.

Due to the whole licensing hulabaloo with BBC it's unlikely that we'll be reissuing this stuff. Soulseek it??
THERE'S A VOMITSPRINKLER IN MY LIVERRIVER
There's A Vomitsprinkler In My Liverriver -LP / CD
Bad Vugum / Bad-45 / 1994

1. Tiodt / Ha-Tuzta / Tostroid
2. Bay Zutus / Cardiako / Iim
3. Valz / Hot Mambo / Antivalz
4. Örsentipede / Supraberber / Carrier
5. Pendulum / Mikrozufé / Bourno
6. Ultrabularit / Hogtar / D'kues

18 tunes in 6 segments of 3 tunes each. The few times this one actually got radio airplay were hilarious, cos the DJ ended up playing 3 tunes as 1. We didn't know nothing about editing or mastering back then, so it was recorded and mixed in the same order... 3 tunes at a time!! Keep in mind that it was the time before Pro Tools or such....

Recorded in 4 days in April 1994 in Pori at Aki's place = Sound Doctor Studio. Engineered by us.

290 LP's and 800 CD's made and gone.

 

 

RIVA!

Riva! -2x7"EP
Fossil / Happy Bone / Bad Vugum / HBR7-001 / Gran' Ol' 7-001 / 1993

1. Hot Weetabix
2. Frogleg
3. Pe' Tutta
4. Wheatslime
5. Mr. Cocktail (orig. by Sweetheart)
6. Jeriko
7. Melarga
8. A' La' La' La
9. Mini
10. Snakefish
11. Jeriko Jr.

11 tunes. This was a compilation of session leftovers (Snakefish + S.U.T. + Demostuff) and experiments in a booklet. Fossil was Tero Viikari's label, Happy Bone was The Bernd's label from Berlin, and BV provided the tapes + distribution. The mastering, once again, was pretty horrible, cos we didn't know better.... we edited this just with 2 DAT machines.

Sweetheart was a mindblowing band from Hamina and we were jamming on their grooves...

Recorded in Pori at Aki's Sound Doctor Studio, Skatrek (practice place of Skaface and Circle), Asema in Ulvila and at home, 1991-1993.

How many made?? First pressing on black vinyl, second on poison green vinyl (beautiful!!)... but gone.

 
GHOTI
UHRILAMPAAT
DEEP TURTLE / UHRILAMPAAT
-split7"EP
Killer / Kill-006 / 1993

1. Clöntmilk
2. Valz
3. La Polquita!

Our first attempt at creating a suite of songs that flow into each other, a format later to be perfected on Vomitsprinkler. Uhrilampaat was a Jesus Lizard -style band, that almost happened... Our "Ghoti" can be pronounced "fish" and that's a fukin evil lookin flounder on the cover!!

Recorded in Pori at Aki's Sound Doctor Studio on a weekend in April 1993. Engineered by us. Horrible sound quality thanx to the nowadays so popular "let's try every knob and use every device in the studio"-method.

500 made and gone.

 
SATANUS URANUS TETANUS
Satanus Uranus Tetanus -7"EP
Bad Vugum / Bad-34 / 1993

1. Resalia
2. Peredia
3. A' La'La'La
4. Smikfouc

4 tunes. Hands down the most horrible sounding recording we ever did. But the songs fly like a mofo. Smikfouc is our Bohemian Rhapsody. The test pressing for this one was fucked up, but then they fixed it. Cool cover art!!

Recorded at Skatrek (practice place of Skaface and Circle) with Aki's machines around December 1992. Engineered by us.

500 made and gone.

 
SNAKEFISH
Snakefish -7"EP
Bad Vugum / Bad-29 / 1992

1. Arbean
2. Eko 'Arak
3. Choclopolka
4. Riola

Our first time in a "real" studio. We had never heard of such things like overhead microphones, ambience mikings, second takes or cue listening... the whole thing went down on 11 traks!

Recorded in Pori at Aki's Sound Doctor Studio in April 1993. Engineered by us.

800 made and gone.

 
The First Demo EP
Deep Turtle -7"EP
LaSaDa / Turtlep-001 / 1991
1. Porridge
2. Yuppidge
3. Money
4. Knef
5. Longsong
6. Godhand
7. Limited EP

7 tunes. Our first demo tape!! False By West was making some recordings at DT's practice place (=Tapio's parent's basement) and they had brought in a bunch of wierd microphones and we borrowed a 4trak from Visa Luttinen. As FBW had it all set up we also taped our tunes. We borrowed a compressor from a music store for "test use" and brought it back the next day cos it "wasn't what we needed" (how cheap). Aki borrowed us a cable snake. Mixed straight to DAT from the 4trak. The cover showed Tapio's grandma, and all in all we just wanted to make the most un-rock record ever, so there were all kindsa of teenie jokes and drawings and scribblings all over, Slap-A-Ham stylee. A big inside joke, the whole thing! It doesn't get more naive...

Recorded in 5 hours in February 1991. Jussi Lehtisalo was hanging around and he pushed the REC and STOP buttons in the "machine room" (=the sauna) while we played, which makes him the engineer.

300 made. 72 were in a purple sleeve and the rest in pink. Long gone.

On the vinyl version our tekno-Arbean was fucked up due to serious phase cancellation in the stereo image... it sounds really thin. Once again: learning through the nose. (The CD sounds fine)

Still some copies available from Bad Vugum!!!
