NUNCHUKKA SUPERFLY - 95 LP (colour vinyl)

Limited edition of 75 copies on orange colour vinyl.

Take yourself back, 30 years ago, give or take a year or so. It was 1993, The Hard-Ons had called it a day after touring Europe and America for almost half the year, it just wasn’t working anymore. Prog-hardcore outfit Massappeal also folded around 1994.

Peter Allen, Peter Black and Ray Ahn found themselves starting a new band ‘Nunchukka Superfly’, they tried out singers for almost a year before Harpoon’s James (aka JJ) McCann came along, luckily this time it clicked.

They hit the ground running with high profile supports and festivals due to the reputations of their previous bands. This beast was something different though and some punters pushed back as it wasn’t what they were expecting. This spurned the band on to give 110% and push their musicality to a new level. They were a powerhouse who often blew other bands off stage.

In 1995, the cracks began showing as the band started to “not get on so well”.

The album ‘Nunchukka Superfly 95’ was recorded in one day, considering the hostility, the recording went exceptionally well. The band described the day and the music as “you can hear that tension”, “volatile”, “intense”, a moment in time, captured on a master and if you tried to create it again, you couldn’t.
