Six Strings That Drew Blood is an anthology celebrating the life of one of Australia's most iconic and respected songwriters: Rowland S. Howard, former member of The Birthday Party, The Boys Next Door and These Immortal Souls.
This is a beautifully packaged 4 LP set in a deluxe box, with each LP in its own sleeve, alongside a large format 16 page booklet.
Mastered for vinyl and pressed on audiophile quality 180 gram virgin vinyl, this set was compiled in conjunction with and with the full support of Genevieve McGuckin, Harry Howard and Mick Harvey among others.
Covering Howard's entire career, the collection begins with the blistering version of 'Shivers' from 1999, progressing chronologically with tracks from The Boys Next Door, The Birthday Party, Crime and the City Solution, These Immortal Souls and a selection from his critically acclaimed solo albums Teenage Snuff Film and Pop Crimes.
