Head Cheese: Jungle Jam/ Teenage Idol/ Non-Melodic
Head Cheese: Jungle Jam/ Teenage Idol/ Non-Melodic (Burn Potential)
Very cool, primitive Philly post-punk/synth ep from 1981. “Jungle Jam” features an ultra-basic groove and rather disturbing lyrics. For me the prize here is the brief “Non-Melodic”, whose strange, inept shimmer simultaneously charms and haunts.

Do you have the compilation LP “I’d rather Be in Philadelphia” that Susan Ottaviano produced also in the early 80′s? I don’t remember Head Cheese being included, but Book of Love is.
