DEATH WISH - S/T EP (2014)

 

I first heard this Boston band on the "Hold Your Ground" comp 30 years ago with their standout track "Break The Chains". They recorded 7 songs in late '83 with tracks 2,3 & 6 first released as a 7" in 1989, and reissued in 1992 on the sketchy German label Lost & Found Records. While it's great the full session was finally put out last decade, it would've been even greater if this had record actually had a cover along with an insert with a bio/history, pictures, flyers, lyrics...something! Instead it was just housed in a plain black outer sleeve like a dance single from the 90's. These songs deserved better than that, but I guess it's better than nothing.
