The Bigger Picture

Saturday, October 13th, 2007

…will deal with, er, the bigger picture

Photo Gallery

Saturday, October 13th, 2007

Hundreds of images of relevant faces and places to do with Kill Your Pet Puppy’s history are stored >>> here <<< also lots of articles from fanzines / music papers / flyers etc. 

The link will dump you into photobucket, then you can choose the sub-albums on the left hand side of the screen for the images in the chosen catagory. When a sub-album is chosen and appears, you can hit the thumbnail to make the image larger, then you can hit the larger image once more for the full size view of the photo or text. This last bit is extra useful if you need to read articles in some of the magazines and fanzines that are posted and will be posted in the future from time to time.

Anyone with any relevant photos / flyers / posters / reviews and articles from zines or music press for the era from 1976 to 1986 please get in touch with Tony D using the contact option above in the header. He will then send any material scanned to myself (Penguin) or put it on himself with a credit to you. We want to try to make this site the ‘one stop shop’ for music, essays, photos, flyers and memories of this special era.

Links & Downloads

 We have a myspace – which begat this website: 

 myspace.com/kill_your_pet_puppy

 and a photobucket

http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/bb227/killyourpetpuppy/

for the overflow of photos that people sent in from the era.

What era?

That we’re still collating responses and writing our own feelings about.

More will come on here , words and people to discuss what happened when the media declared punk was dead and began promoting New Romantics, yet we lived. WE LIVED. We lived in squats and blah blah blah. It’ll be all over this site like a rash.

Downloads, do you know how to use myspace? I use it by going to our site then clicking on ‘view all friends’ then clicking on the images of things that interest me - this links to their site, their words/images/songs and their friends.

It’s possible to spend all day and all of the night doing this (I know I’m doing it now instead of writing stuff for this site). And it is all enjoyable.

Penguin’s All The Madmen Records site and his Mob fansite are very good, a decent place to link into stuff:

www.myspace.com/allthemadmenrecords

www.myspace.com/themobfansite

Just go to KYPP myspace or Penguin’s or Anarchos (below) and start clicking and enjoying. And…it’s all free!

There’s going to be some unique downloads available on this site soon starting with rare tracks from the 96 Tapes stable, some live Mob stuff and anything else we feel like slapping on!  Please come back and check Links / Download page out every now and again. Please remember also that some / most of these oxide tapes vinyl records are over 20 – 25 years old, and the quality may vary from track to track, artist to artist…Penguin has used some decent gear and software to get the music as clear as he can get it!

This myspace has one of the best collection of downloads and links available to humanity:

 http://www.myspace.com/moetthepoet

sounds crap but when you go there it’s called ‘Anarcho’. Has loads of links to bands’ myspaces and websites plus loads of links to free downloads from all over the place.

And I love this site:

http://www.fuzzlogic.com/flex/

What they say about themselves:

“You will find more than 5600 reviews of US punk and hardcore records in this database. If you don’t find your favorite record reviewed, it’s up to you to change this sad situation.

If you want to buy, sell or trade records, check out the record section.

If you want to know what FLEX is all about, read the intro to the original (printed) book.”

Genesis P. and KYPP paths have crossed continually, we are good friends, though we let each other continue their chosen paths independently.
