Description
Godzillas/Eatin Dust is the most popular release in Fu Manchus 30 year recorded history. It is the combination of what were originally 2 distinct 10 releases: Godzilla (1997) and Eatin Dust (1999).In 2018, Scott Hill (vocals/guitar) found the original tapes from the Godzilla recording sessions produced by Josh Homme (Queens Of The Stone Age/Kyuss) and unearthed a secret that had been in his garage since 1996The band had recorded 4 songs that had never been released. These extra songs are early versions of Grendel, Snowman, Strolling Astronomer and Urethane (whose final versions appeared on 1997s The Action Is Go) and a cover of Thin Lizzys Jailbreak (which is a different version than the one which was released on 7 in 1998). The songs line up perfectly with the original tracklist, which includes the bands crowd pleasing cover of Blue Oyster Cults Godzilla and fan favourites Eatin Dust and Mongoose (which was featured in a Super Bowl commercial for Toyota and included in the TV series Sons Of Anarchy and the films Boondock Saints II and The Hot Chick).In 2019, the band released a 2,000 unit limited edition of this new version in a triple 10 package. Due to the continuing demand after this version sold out, in 2020 the band issued a new limited edition version of 1,500 units neon green and white splatter double 12 gatefold package with 2 sided insert including the previously unreleased tracks at 45 RPM for the heaviest audio possible.
