THE PAGANS (LIVE AT THE DROME SINGLE)

If I was going to pick my top ten favorite punk records of all time, this would most definitely be high on that list. This is an absolute killer record!! dare I say Perfect. I love the brutal guitar sound, it almost sounds like there's an ice pick stuck in the speaker of the amp. Accompany that with the heavy base, snotty vocals and great lyrics and you have a total classic. I like everything about it.(I guess you can tell) this pressing from 1986 is probably more rare than the original. Only 200 copies with the yellow cover. The Pagans were a Cleveland, Ohio band. Originally active from 1977 to 1979 before briefly reforming in 1982 and disbanding the following year. they proved to be an influential band that was overlooked during their two tenures. Since then, reappraisals have seen them win acclaim from critics. Drummer Brian Hudson died in 1991.
