punk: the early years

180g vinyl"

Forty years after punk rock first shook the music world to its foundation, the Vibrators are back in the studio for an enjoyable romp down memory lane, resurrecting classics by bands who—like the Vibrators —were there when it all began and who helped write the Book of Genesis in the punk rock bible. Bands like the Undertones, the Ramones, the Dead Boys (featuring MC5's Wayne Kramer), UK Subs, the Clash, the Sex Pistols, the Saints, 999, the Stranglers and more! "
