***Here it is folks, the first ever Hozac Archival release, and man is it a whopper. The 40th anniversary first edition of two unissued 1972 cuts by New York proto punk group, FURY, fronted by a young SONNY VINCENT, who would later etch out his stain on the wall of punk history in the TESTORS and an illustrious solo career. These two tracks were recorded and shopped around to record companies in the early 1970s, only to have their dreams quashed due to lack of interest, and the band, subsequently disillusioned and restless, disbanded without any real document of it's existence. Sonny quickly started up another band upon Fury’s demise, LIQUID DIAMONDS, in 1973, and never looked back (Liquid Diamonds debut 7" coming soon on Hozac as well!), so it's with such great excitement that we thrust forth this debut Fury single, an explosive fireball of rock'n roll mayhem aimed straight at your groin, the way it was intended, in the perfect, screaming 45 rpm format. Bonehead cruncher? Yer damn right, this criss-crossed between heavy-handed biker rock and thug pungk supreme, dripping with chain grease and burnt skin, a true ball-crushing, tit-ripping rock'n roll gem for the ages, sadly unreleased and completely unknown during it's time. Sonny's signature style is immediate, even at this early of an age, the seething vocals are incredible, sounding much like his better-known later Testors material, yet with such an over-the-top proto punk hammer damaged sound drilling away in the background, you'll feel your life...
