An unreleased track from Kerbdog as a b-side from a promo single that never got released.
A huge thanks to 'bastinado' for providing this track to the Kerbdog.com forum users!

I've uploaded 3 copies of the song in different format;

YouTube (which is on the Kerbdog.com YouTube Channel)

MP3 and FLAC: Both versions here.  The MP3 is the highest quality I could do without making the file huge and a Lossless version encoded in FLAC

There aint nothin Wilt about that tune, it was recorded by Kerbdog as part of the b-sides for the singles from "On The Turn" but it stood out and we saved it to be our first single in America as part of the second album cycle. Our manager, Merck, thought it would be a good track to use there, the plan was to re-record it and service it to college radio before releasing the heavier tunes..
...
I think someone put it on a promo disk but it was stopped in its tracks.. No, never got to release it, got fired instead.. there was two other labels at the time after us for America.. They came to see us support Placebo, we blew placebo away the first night so they wouldnt let us use the p.a. the second night...which of course was the night they came... We were going to use it with one of those labels.. but when I got back from holidays the band, surprisingly, was a two piece, so that was that.. it was due to be the next release. Should of flogged it to biffy clyro! lol
The track itself came from a Wilt disc entitled "proposed album tracklisting for 'Bastinado'."  They threw whatever tracks they had at the time on the disc, it was an internal disc and that track shouldn't have been on it as they never used/played it as Wilt.

Updated: Updated info about the track as it was an unreleased b-side from Kerbdog for a 'On The Turn' single.
Updated again! Added info on where the track rip came from and why it was on that disc. Also added the scans of the CD itself and the CD inlay.

Thank you so much. Just downloading now.

Love it. Really good song. If I won the lottery I'd give them all the money to record another album as Kerbdog.

Thank you sirs!!
Downloaded with gusto :)

Decent tune, those 'On The Turn' era b-sides were certainly worthy of a 3rd Kerbdog album.

I haven't logged in for ages and now I do there's a 'new' track to download and a tribute album coming out. And the tribute album is on Neil Cooper's label.

Happy New Years indeed!!!

Cheers heaps man!

That's a classic Kerbdog song...would've sat nicely with the other amazing B-Sides on Sally...shame it never made it!

Nice to hear something 'new' from 'em though!

Thanks again!

For what its worth, i know im probably about a year late but for anyone who wants to download anything from the gallery, i found it really easy with my PS3. Just go to this site with the browser, click on whatever it is you want to download and it just downloads it straight to your hard drive in seconds rather than play the song.You can then listen to it at your leisure.No need to get any software from anywhere.
