Video footage has been published of North Wales psyche-punk band Sons Of Selina.
Recorded at a gig on 30th December 1994 at The Bistro in Rhyl, the band are featured performing songs from their debut album ‘Nour D’Oui’ (released by Delerium Records in 1994).
The line-up (for this gig) – Steve Sync (keys), Steve Jones (gtr), Alan Matthews [Cumi Pants] (drms), Neil Crud (voc.gtr,bass), Robin Hemuss (bass, gtr), Martin Wilding (gtr).
Link2wales Records are pleased to announce the reissue of Psycho Sexual Sex Terrestrials vs Sons Of Selina single Creatures Of The Night – available on limited edition 12″ vinyl [sorry sold out] and a ‘pay what you want’ download from Bandcamp.
Creatures Of The Night was the first song written by Sons Of Selina back in 1990 (it was demoed but never officially released). The band eventually reworked the song as the title of their second album ‘Fire In The Hole.’
In 2004 Paul Hammond of Psycho Sexual Sex Terrestrials took it apart and recorded it, inviting Neil Crud (Sons Of Selina) to write and record new lyrics.
Released on CD it became a staple part of the playlist at the Bar Blu venue in Rhyl.

4Q were a punk band from Colwyn Bay (1987-90). Originally featuring Edi Filmstar (voc), Neil Crud (gtr), Wayne The Bastard (bass) and Paul Puke (drms). Edi quit after 4 gigs and Cumi Pants (voc) joined and Paul Puke was replaced by Matt Vinyl (drms) to make up the most prolific line-up in the band’s gigging history. By mid-1989 Gumpsh (gtr) and Robin (gtr) had joined after Wayne had left with Neil taking over on bass. Neil Crud smashed his bass on stage in Sept’90 and quit the band and despite Cumi looking to recruit a replacement things stopped.More

Bore da, and a very Happy New Year to yas. A little late, granted, but it’s still January and I have the excuse of having had one of those nasty bugs that were doing the rounds. Poor Mickey. I was going to say “Hey, that’s Christmas over for another seven months, the Easter eggs are in the shops and they’re trying to sell us summer* holidays.” (*Summer; expand your vocabulary, look it up). Going to. You know… because the ads for it always start appearing by August, so I was having a pop at the greedy bastard capitalists who aren’t yet satisfied with the current levels of global bankruptcy. But this year they’ve gone even further, I’ve ALREADY seen an advert in a TV mag. January 15th. For next Christmas. 344 days to go. Fucking insanity. Insert rant of your choice here, I really can’t be bothered with it any more and hereby tender my resignation from the human race.
