I recently picked up this one quite cheaply (1 euro in fact) and have been pleasantly surprised by it, as I had not come across Bitter before.  Pretty straight forward PE, but good nonetheless.   Also comes with a CDR of 2 live sets, which are also of decent sound quality. Loud and crunchy.  Packaging is simple and effectives, but I would have liked some song titles to establish thematic content a bit more (...from the audible vocals the standard PE themes are present..).

Anyway apart from Discogs telling me they are a Dutch group, there is scant info around regarding this project.  Anyone have any further details?

I have also seen this 7" going cheap in a few places, so figuring that they may not be that well know, or this one has gone a bit under the radar.

Anyone else got an opinion on Bitter?

Arjan runs also Heidens Hart Records, :Vene: is Closed.

Bitter/Terg is underrated als so much others. Think its too much out for real Wide Spreading

Self titled tape is worth a listen too, nothing too spectacular though. But good. Should spin the 7" again too. I remember it being somewhat abrupt with song endings. Terg recordings I have heard were a little too wall-sy.

:Vene: did pretty long runs of releases. Bitter 7" was somewhere around 500 copies and some tapes at 200 copies.
