Did The Saints invent punk? Mar 21, 2025

Show notes

Brisbane, Australia’s The Saints are responsible for two of the greatest punk albums of all time, in 1977’s '(I’m) Stranded' and 1978’s 'Eternally Yours.'

This November, look for “The Saints ’73-‘78” to be touring North America, featuring original members Ed Kuepper and Ivor Hay, along with The Birthday Party’s Mick Harvey, the Sunnyboys’ Peter Oxley and Mudhoney’s Mark Arm, in service of original lead singer Chris Bailey, lost to us in 2022.

Additionally, there’s a four-LP boxset version of the milestone debut album out, as well as a new solo album from Ed, done in conjunction with Jim White from the Dirty Three, called 'After the Flood.'

Check out Goldmine author Martin Popoff interview The Saints guitarist/ vocalist/songwriter Ed Kuepper in a wide-ranging chat that looks at how The Saints dovetailed into the punk movement, along with a fair bit on each of the three albums covered by the upcoming tour, plus a look at the new solo album. We also touch upon the creative differences that led to Ed’s split with Chris after the band’s controversial third album, 'Prehistoric Sounds,' issued in October of 1978. Horns? Acoustic guitars? Surely The Saints didn’t invent punk?!
