A lot of this could have been released in the 'noughties' by one of those multitudes of hideous drainpipe and cardigan wearing bands who had parents with record collections with "Hicks from the Sticks" in it.Except that this is the real stuff.
Stand out tracks are Clock DVA "You're Without Sound", Section 25 "After Image" and the brilliant I'm So Hollow's "I Don't Know".

Varied and interesting, cheers Johnny. Now if someone could just rip a decent copy of 'Welcome To Norwich - A Fine City' (not the Mutant Sounds faulty rip) then my life would be complete.
Thanks :) Mike
Rewind 1980. I get out of bed in just my red and white y-fronts and light my first cigarette of the day. I place the needle on this album on the turntable. That first song I know because Peel played it last week and the rest of this comp is a decent listen. Fast-forward 2018 and I am reunited with this album again thanks to another blogger. I decide to make a mix of this album and add four of my own choices to make it a 20-tracker, I;ll upload it on my blog and make it available for download later, cheers - Oliver,
