Information/Write-up
These early Vancouver punks released some pretty great records over their short career, but this 1978 debut will probably remain the classic 45 they'll be best known for. Nothing fancy, art-damaged or vicious here, just two near-perfect blasts of loud, snappy, melodic punk that's inspired countless bands since. Certainly not the rarest or most obscure record, but one that deserves to be readily available to anyone with a taste for quality punk rock singles. Colour pocket sleeve and new insert.
This is undoubtedly Vancouver's best power pop/ punk release of all time - originally on the Quintessence label in a pressing of 1,000 copies, it was issued in five different colours: yellow, orange, magenta, pink and lime green.
