Evil I - "Official Bootleg" (2021, full album)

1 comment:

  1. "This absolute masterpiece of the most primordial raw hardcore punk we've ever heard, is released for the first time officially in 2021, almost 40 years after the 1983 Chicago recording by Lombard's (IL) Evil I. A band that, being barely known outside of their own scene, have absolutely blown us away on first listen with a portentous and powerful guitar sound and the stunning vocals of their insane frontwoman, Carol, in what is undoubtedly another new feat from Chicago's brilliant archival label, Alona's Dream".

    "These songs were recorded in west suburban Chicago in 1983 by Lombard, Illinois based Evil I. This record perfectly captures the spirit of the first wave of hardcore punk. Cutting vocals, tight rhythm, shredded guitar and a take no prisoners attitude make for a timeless hardcore document. Originally distributed by the band at shows, it remained largely unheard outside the Chicago scene until now.

    Mastered from the original tape and pressed into 160 gram green vinyl (500 pressed) in a 20pt board jacket with printed inner sleeve, lyric insert and liner notes by the band."
