GS 28 


***The first ever official vinyl reissue of this 80s Japanese punk masterpiece. This record defined the “Kyushu Punk” sound, and spawned countless fans and imitators in Japan, and across the globe with their fuzzy and noisy style that blended the catchiness and rock’n’roll sensibilities of ‘77 punk bands like Sex Pistols, with the most chaotic raw hardcore punk sounds of the early 80s. The sound on the original vinyl LP is very dynamic, and difficult to appreciate the full range of frequencies when listening to an mp3 or streaming, in comparison. With this is mind, General Speech, and Kings World Records chose to have this record mastered by Miles Showell at Abbey Road Studio, making it the first ever half-speed audiophile hardcore punk record, preserving the highest range of frequencies heard on the original recordings, and making this a record some will find equally or more enjoyable to the original. The LP comes with an exact replica of the original insert, and faithful center label and jacket artwork.
