2LP (Neon Green Vinyl)

A long overdue repress from the cult band, featuring the embryonic ideas of both the “scuzzy Dead Boys and arty, Beefheartian new wavers Pere Ubu.” Pitchfork. A short-lived outfit caught in rehearsal and live with seminal versions of ‘Final Solution’, ’30 Seconds Over Tokyo’ and ‘Sonic Reducer’ alongside covers of The Stooges and the Velvets. Pressed on neon green vinyl. “The most self-destructive group ever to smash a six-string.” The Guardian.
