THE SICKNESS – Complete Sickness LP

Description

Well this was album of the update before I even listened to it! Absolute legendary dirge-punk band here, Sickness came pre-Groinoids and pre-Kilslug. They released one 7″ (which I have but it doesn’t have a cover….anyone with a sleeve message me thanks!) but there’d been talk of a bunch of unreleased stuff seeing the light of day at some point….well, here it is! Here we have two more tracks recorded properly during the 7″ session. The A side has two more unheard studio tracks for a radio session. The flip is three live tracks, including a rare rehearsal from 1979. Think about it, coming out with shit like this in ’79, unreal man! This is totall deranged stuff, not a million miles away from Flipper who I guess most folk consider the masters at this gear. Personally think Sicness/Groinoids/Kilslug are every bit as good if not better. If you have to get one record in this update, go fer this one. If you have to get two, get this and the Bloody Head LP to hear the masters and apprentices together!
