Blue Ruin - I'm Gonna Smile (1989)
It features this song (which I only just heard today):
But I have their first album,
Flame, and I love it. They're a Melbourne, Australia band with Phil Calvert (Psychedelic Furs, The Birthday Party) on drums. Driving, bluesy rock. Like The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion without the cheek.
All of their albums are out of print (and some totally unavailable on CD), but I would still love to see what I can dig up from these guys.
Any help is appreciated.
Help me Obner, you're my only hope...
