This version of Radios Appear was released after Sire Records signed the band. The original album was 'updated' for overseas release with new versions of some songs, the remixing of others and the addition of new songs. The resulting album is over 50% different from the original Australian (Trafalgar) version and has a completely different cover.
"Indeed, Radio Birdman was, for a moment, the greatest Rock & Roll band in the world. In the pressure cooker of the Oxford Tavern, Birdman cranked the sound harder and faster and pushed every moment to its limit. Birdman never played at anything less than full intensity. When was the last time that you danced non-stop for an hour and a half? When was the last time that you actually saw a band so overload the sound system that it fell apart on stage? When did you see a band that really didn't give a fuck what you or anybody else thought of them? They never played the same set twice. It was inspiring. It was, in fact, exactly what they tell you Rock & Roll is about but almost never is." Toby Creswell August 2014
