ULTRAVOX! LIVE
Neat live set from February 1977 when Ultravox! had just signed to Island records and were about to release their debut album. They were supporting label mates Eddie And The Hot Rods. This release captures the band on the cusp of the punk explosion with a lot of unreleased material played along with some tracks off the album. We had a sneaky taster of this set when 'Slip Away' was on the B-side of the classic 'Young Savage' 45 from '77. So it's only took 45 years to hear the whole set phew.
Released to coincide with record store day so a limited 1500 editions are on Vinyl.
Check out this pristine video footage of 'Slip Away' from the same gig.

SLOW FACTION MINI ALBUM
“Slow Faction from Deptford South London is a 1st generation-influenced punk band with a real London '77 sound. "The aim of Slow Faction is simple – to make the music they want to hear; politically-charged songs with big hooks and choruses, reminiscent of the 1st wave of British punk." They have just released their latest 6 track mini album 'Culture And Other Wars' on CD which comes with a full lyric sheet. They have been described as a "cross between The Clash and The Buzzcocks.”
You can check them out for yourself on the bands Bandcamp site which features a load of other tunes.

STARCRAWLER
Debut album from LA based Starcrawler, who made a name for themselves with "squalling riffs, thundering beats and their incendiary live shows". They are fronted by a 6ft 2 female blonde Joey Ramone androgyny called Arrow de Wilde whose otherworldly magnetism compliments the rampaging guitars
who are recklessly spat out by 17 year old gunslinger Henri Cash. I spotted em on Joolz holland performing their modern day anthem 'I love LA', they were on the cover of LA Weekly – The headline read “With Fake Blood and Frenetic Songs, Starcrawler make rock feel dangerous again". So can this debut live up to
that hype? It features a 10 song album and this foursome are making rock and roll exciting again!

PENI DEBUT 45 REISSUE
Reissue of Rudimentary Peni’s stunning debut 12-song 7”. Recorded in 1981 at Street Level Studios and originally released on their own Outer Himalayan label. From the first track Rudimentary Peni pull you in and aurally assault your ears. It’s abrasive, sharp with supreme musicianship. They created a perfect, demented universe of twisted, poetic and needle in the red punk that has never been bettered. This reissue comes with a fold out replica sleeve with the iconic Blinko foetus artwork and booklet. Remastered from original tapes by Arthur Rizk.

And of course.....

The words legendary, seminal, and classic get thrown around at will these days, but Rudimentary Peni’s debut album is all of them. Recorded over two days at Southern Studios by John Loder and originally released in 1983 by Crass off-shoot label Corpus Christi, Death Church showed a band moving away from the urgency of their two early 7”s and into their own realm. Creating a template that bands have been trying to replicate ever since, while ticking all the boxes to become a genre-defining album. Iconic artwork, a unique sound and their own lyrical universe. All merging seamlessly. Sonically the album is full of Nick Blinko’s extraordinary vocals and equally remarkable guitar, Grant Matthews’ big meandering driving basslines and Jon Greville's tight and relentless drum work which together made something intricate and hard hitting, with a sequence that makes the 21 songs on the album flow perfectly. Visually, the album is every outsider art lover’s wet dream. A six-panel poster sleeve with every inch covered in Nick Blinko’s claustrophobic black and white line drawings, while lyrically the songs deal with madness, religion, death, and questioning humankind from a dark poetic place rarely found in any art form.
Remastered from the original master tapes by Arthur Rizk and housed in a replica poster sleeve. Death Church is back in print in LP, CD and cassette after nearly a decade of no official reissues released December 3, 2021
