Welcome to another chapter of rare and off-kilter tracks conceived in the bloody era of Reaganomics. Classic statement from Texas heroes Hugh Beaumont Experience and Bobby Soxx & Teenage Queers (led by Bobby Calverley, vocalist of influential punk band Stickmen With Rayguns) mix with the urgent new wave style of Phoenix own Killer Pussy or the more out rock vein of Anti-Band (with Jimmy Leach of historical Dangerhouse act Eyes). Venturing further with The Pudz addictive power-pop and Rock Bottom & The Spys wild synth-punk (with founding member of Zolar X Stephen Della Bosca on guitars), this compilation shows a darker side of the American underground with a host of hard-to-find contributions. Also featuring Adaptors, Men In Black, The Cold, Non Compos Mentis, Active Ingredients, The Pudz, The Boners, Dv8, Deprogrammer, Rock Bottom & The Spys, International Q, The Gigolos, and Lost Cause.
