In their early days, Dolium caused quite a buzz on the UK underground music scene; first in 1999/2000 with their sonic assault on the city of Sheffield - and then some years later, when their 2004 DIY'd debut single (and the label’s first ever release under the name of Parlour 9) quickly caught the attention of BBC radio legend, John Peel.
The rest, as they say, is history...
Take the journey and discover the roots of Sister 9 with this stunning set, which includes the band’s entire discography (all newly remastered by Rhys Bloodjoy in the S9 Studio), plus many unheard recordings, including their long-lost, unreleased third album, Brother Transistor.
The story is presented in a striking full colour booklet, featuring art and photography, as well as extensive sleeve notes by the band and their management, plus one or two surprises — yet to be announced!
"Scratchy urgent new wave whiplash energy... They've been one of England's best kept secrets for far too long" - ORGANZINE
“A record that is at once gloriously cheap and mesmerising in its twists of moods and pace... Full of hooks and tunes, it's a refreshing sound" - THE INDEPENDENT (4/5 STARS)
"A mighty half-hour that deserves a cult following” - NEW NOISE
"A screaming, raging, frighteningly fierce assault of punk rock. Bring on the world of The Black Stripes” - BBC MANCHESTER
"Joyously catchy pieces of Punk Rock perfection. Short, looped, and venomous basslines. ‘Kisses Fractures’ is great, and it rocks like a bastard" - SUBBA-CULTCHA
"Guitars bristle and the vocals breathe static. A less depressing Joy Division mixed with the black horror of Bauhaus and the melodic dynamics of the Pixies" - KERRANG!
"Undemanding, unpretentious and exquisitely intense" - GIGWISE
"Passion, intensity, darkness and eccentricity. A bold and tenacious offering" - MUSO'S GUIDE
"Tasty, seductive stuff" - ROCKSOUND
"Once you're hooked, there's no stopping your appreciation" - SANDMAN MAGAZINE
"Gloriously slanted gothic blues rocking underground heroes" - UK MUSIC REVIEW
"The only thing I've listened to recently that has actually made me sit up and take notice" - DIESHELLSUITDIE
"Dirty, cheap, hostile and sarcastic..the sound of society crashing around us all over again" - SONIC DICE
"I fuckin' love it" - MIKE JOYCE, DJ (Ex-The Smiths Drummer)
"You've Got Holes! will knock your brains out" - GET READY TO ROCK!
"Punk rock with rapid fire riffs and just a touch of kitsch" - TASTY FANZINE
"With cult status already guaranteed, it probably won't be long before more get hooked on Dolium" - ROCK MIDGETS
"Dolium will get you in the end and then you'll know about it!" - TOXIC PETE
"...a dirty variant of T-Rex via Sigue Sigue Sputnik...Mutant garage glam grunge to go...The bollocks in short!" - THE SUNDAY EXPERIENCE
