When I purchased this almost three decade old record just last year, I never would have imagined that Staunton, Virginia's Findells were still active and performing live.  Granted, band members have come and gone that kind of longevity is no small feat.  As for myself, my only familiarity with the band is this cleverly titled LP that finds the quartet playing a warm strain of post-punk, merging the stylings of The Feelies and Mission of Burma.  Though I don't regard The Radiators Are Bleeding as crucial as the canon of those fawned over demi-gods, it's still an interesting and often engaging listen. 

At one point, the Findells offered a homemade cd reissue of Radiators, but copies of those appear to be even scarcer than this static-ridden vinyl copy that I feel so fortunate to be in possession of.  Sorry in advance for any and all surface noise.  In addition to the group's website linked above, there's a Findells blog page with a decent backgrounder.
