  • EP 1-12 CASSETTE AUDIOBOOK SERIES (6x TAPES)
    Cassette + Digital Album

    Full Barely Human series dubbed to recycled cassettes put on the kerb by a local church. Each tape contains an episode either side to make six tapes in total for the series... Note that as Ep 12 isn't finished yet, this order will take another couple weeks to post out... Also note that amateur tape dubbing and the variation of cassette quality might mean that playability will vary significantly.. embrace the flaws if so.

about

Barely Human is a podcast series written and hosted by Max Easton of Meatspin... we're uploading here so you can purchase the secret cassette version that makes it not a podcast, but an audiobook. You can listen to all episodes online for free via the links at www.barelyhuman.info or by searching Barely Human in whatever app you use to listen to podcasts.

For those who followed Meatspin Prints, the final episode is an adaptation of the I'm in Stife; I Like Low Life zine... and much of the other episodes relate back to issues discussed in the first to volumes of Tempered.

More info on the show below:

Barely Human is a narrative-driven podcast series about the forgotten and footnoted musicians of underground music history. Written and hosted by Australian writer Max Easton, it follows a thread from sixties counter-culture to contemporary sub-culture through the stories of a whole cast of unusual characters. From hippies and punks to the age of obscurity, it asks how we got here, what any of that meant and how it might inform the underground music to come.
