Auntie Pus Halfway To Venezuela 7"

Name: Auntie Pus - Halfway To Venezuela
SKU: 76795
Availability: InStock

Julian Isaacs aka Auntie Pus, made a bet with his childhood friend Chris Millar (Rat Scabies of The Damned) that one of them would have a top ten record within 3 years. He of course lost that bet in less than a year as The Damned took the world by storm, but Isaacs carried on with his own brand of punk and Syd Barrett inspired songs. Auntie Pus would play with the best of the first wave of UK punk bands, and become frequent tour partners of bands like The Damned and The Ruts. In 1978 he finally recorded a single, with Rat on drums, which was eventually released with some help from the Ruts management, and did make it, not just into the weekly top 10 in Sounds, but “Single of the Week”, and top 10 in Record Mirror (though The Damned were pulling the reigns on the top 10 that week). Since then, the single has become a staple of conversations about under the radar 70s UK DIY punk and “messthetics” type singles. This 7″ is a deluxe edition with an unreleased track, artwork faithful to the original, a 4 page insert that includes photos, flyers, and an in depth interview which should be fascinating to any fan of 70s UK punk. Available on Black, Pink, and Green vinyl

Thanks for your support during these mad days. I am shipping daily now, but due to the level of work and the fact that I am just one person doing everything here your order may take longer than expected. I do my best to get orders out of the door as fast as I can but please be patient. Especially if the item you order was a pre-order, there are massive delays between pressing plants and custom clearance process.

Please – if you have any especial requirements for your European orders regarding value etc leave your directions on the text field when placing the order.

LVEUM is just one person so if your email isn’t answered as fast as you wished please try again as I find impossible to be on top of mail.

Thanks!

First Time Ordering?

A couple things you must read before placing an order at LVEUM if you are a first timer

We are not Amazon.

Tracked mail costs extra unless you choose a courier shipping option. If you need a tracking number please chose one of the tracked options.

I try to ship daily but sometimes I don’t feel like it. Please be patient. Check out a map and see what the distance is between London and your city. Shit takes time to get there.

I have been doing mailorder for the last 20 years, five of those as a full-time job. It is not in my interest that you are angry and I am certainly not here to rip anyone off.

Communication is key, but please do NOT write me two days after you placed an order from Canada asking where your order is.

I am happy to combine postage, keep stuff aside and ship whenever the size of the hold pile is big enough to guarantee a better shipping rate. But please make my life easy and be clear each time you order.

European customers: I do NOT have a IOSS number. The way UK post is set makes it impossible for a small label like LVEUM to have one. If you are worried about potential custom charges then I suggest you buy from our Bandcamp page since Bandcamp has an IOSS number and it makes the customs process seamless (or it should at least) Otherwise you can try local distros. Hit me up if you have a hard time finding someone that carries LVEUM releases in your area and I’ll do my best to point you to the closest one.
