The Stems - Mushroom Soup Cover ARtwork
Also by The Stems: Heads Up CD   Associated:   Dom Mariani DM3 Domnicks
The Stems came roaring out of Perth in the mid Eighties with a sound and style that definitively captured the spirit and enthusiasm of sixties garage music - lurching fuzz-tone guitars, brooding organ and solid gold garage-punk! Though at the core of it all, The Stems wrote some awesome songs, made great records and put on exciting live shows. Tracks like Make You Mine, Love Will Grow and Tears Me In Two mark them out as one of the truly great Australian acts of the Eighties.

Mushroom Soup - The Citadel Years has been remastered and repackaged and brings together the band's break-through singles, their debut EP Love Will Grow and a selection of demos and outtakes. This collection captures a great band at the peak of its powers.
