Agony For Pleasure - "Complete Agony" (Die or DIY? Compilation) 2014


To continue the long and continuing saga of underground legend,Stephen Surreal; we have the post 1986 revival of Agony For Pleasure ,which released many cassettes,from which one has compiled this joyful “Best of” compilation. A wonderful celebration of Hopelessness which you can relax to of an evening, after a hard days slave labour at your shit job. Come home to your neurotic life partner, kids who ignore you, then slip on 'Ambient Nightmare' and drift back to the days when entertainment reflected real life. Sip on your cup of hot steamy Horlicks (not 'whore licks', its a hideous bedtime beverage popular in the UK in the 70's), and lose yourself in this distorted nightmare,knowing that all you have to look forward to is eternal oblivion.
The K-Tel advert that never happened! This is definitely not available in shops, fuck that! Burn the shops down and reclaim the streets before its oblivion time!

Nope - not this time,couldn't have put the write up any better - might have included - 'missionary position once a month, unless wifey had a headache with the Sunday dinner fumes,as Joe slave has a pint in the pub (whist walking the dog) to suppress murderous intent from the lumpy gravy & the thoughts of routine returning next day' - oh how I reeeaaalllllyyyyyy wish I had a 'normal' life' thanks Jonny.

Hi J,

I agree with most things you write, but gotta disagree with the description of Horlicks as horrible! I know it's horses for courses, but come on: Liquid Malteasers! Gotta be good!
Keep up the good work.

Hey Judas,
You got me! i'll admit to having never tasted Horlicks for some forty years.Back in the days of malt loaf and Viscount biscuits.It had too much to compete with,so got lost in the heady mix of seventies poisons. Liquid malteasers? whats not to like?
