Lime Spiders "Lime Spiders" 1987 (Promo Live EP) + "Out Of Control" 1985 - 7"/45rpm

Promo Live EP was recorded Live on the AAV Mobile at the Sydney Cove Tavern, September 1987

Jakimyszyn rejoined in May 1987 in time for the release of Lime Spiders' debut album, The Cave Comes Alive! in June. The album was produced by David Price, and peaked at No. 54 on the Kent Music Report Albums Chart. AllMusic's David Szatmary found the album was the "snarling debut from the punk quartet who owe a debt to the '60s". Meanwhile, the six-track EP, Slave Girl, had reached the top of the United States college chart. It remained there long enough to generate interest in the group. With the release of the album, the band supported The Cult on a national tour. Jakimyszyn left the band again shortly afterwards. At the end of the year they began a North American tour spanning two months of shows in major US cities and several in Canada. The tour included supporting Faith No More and, for the final thirteen shows, supporting Public Image Ltd. Rolling Stone magazine described them as sounding like "the Sex Pistols on acid". Highlights included a backstage visit by Iggy Pop and Joey Ramone at the Cat Club in New York.  - wiki

"Out Of Control" 1985 - 7"/45rpm
Allmusic's Stephen Cook praised the group for "[e]schewing some of the overtly psychedelic '60s touches and concocting an updated blend of crunching guitars, snarled vocals, and bottom-heavy bass and drums, the band come up with a surprisingly original sound". In January 1985 Jakimyszyn left the band (after being diagnosed with schizophrenia), and they continued without a replacement. As a four-piece they recorded another single with Younger producing, "Out of Control", which was released on Citadel in December 1985. - wiki
