Magic Dirt - Young and Full of the Devil (1998)



Previously on OPIUM HUM:
Magic Dirt - Friends in Danger (1996)

Magic Dirt's second LP is druggier, dirge-yer, and all-around gnarlier than their debut. The soothing hum of that rumbling guitar tone, thankfully, remains.

Track listing:
1. Babycakes
2. She-Riff
3. Rabbit with Fangs
4. Shrinko
5. What Have I Done?
6. These Drugs Are Really Starting to Fuck Me Over
7. Short Black
8. X-Ray
9. Ascot Red
10. Babycakes You Always Freeze Me Up

If you touch me, I'll kill you

  1. Thankyou - this is out of print (think the local record company AuGoGo went bankrupt) and not on itunes (Warner US refused to release this album after paying for it), so much appreciated.

  2. Hey, I know I'm late to the party, but do you have links to any of Magic Dirt's first three releases? Namely the Eps Signs of Satanic Youth, Life Was Better... or their debut self titled LP? Much appreciated if you do!

    1. I have the EPs, and the self-titled is just a comp of those two EPs with a mixed up track order plus a song from a split, so I put that song ("Goofy Dumb") in there as well:

    4. Hey, sorry I forgot about this. But apparently I was mistaken, aside from the ones I've linked a few comments up, I only have "She-Riff", my bad. Here's that tho:
