***BACK IN STOCK!!! Alternative Tentacles presents a long-awaited vinyl reissue of the out-of-print 1994 album Those Deep Buds by legendary post-punk skronkmeisters Dog Faced Hermans. This is a one-time LP pressing, on ebony vinyl, limited to 1000 copies. Some members carry on today as The Ex, still touring and recording. “… the group has the same questing spirit as bands like Wire, the Slits, or the Raincoats, but rather than simply recreating the work of those leaders of U.K. post-punk, the Hermans doggedly pursue their own distinct muse. Hints of Krautrock also crop up, both in trancy rhythms … and in the sudden shifts and stops in the music at many points.” —AllMusic.com “Those Deep Buds, the band’s final studio statement to date, is its masterpiece, an unbelievably powerful and resilient record with some of the best lyrics to ever appear on a rock album.” —Trouser Press
LP $13.00
