Godspeed You! Black Emperor's earliest tape gets official release

All Lights Fucked on the Hairy Amp Drooling was first released in December 1994 on cassette. The cassette, said to be Godspeed You! Black Emperor's first release, only had 33 copies, the majority of which have been lost over the years.

Earlier this month someone shared a folder on 4chan containing over an hour of music spread over 24 songs, and now Godspeed You! Black Emperor have given the tape an official release on Bandcamp, which sees the tape split into four recordings.

The description reads: "this was a retirement letter, recorded spring/summer/fall summer of 1993. All of it by efrim, and a little bass from mauro. Vocals on $13.13 by d.c., acoustic gtr. snippet and backwards hash by dan-o. No relation to the band that followed. All proceeds from sales going to the CJPME's campaign to provide medical oxygen to the Gaza Strip. Be gentle."
