Although early (1978) this was never seen as Punk, and is now classed as post punk. I personally couldn't care less as all three tracks are top notch. released on the FAST label as a double a side (on one side it says "Side 1" on the other side it says "Side 1 as well").I posted this as only two of the three tracks appeared anywhere other than this single. "Armalite rifle" for some reason was left of the album, even though it is brilliant. So here's all three for you.
There is an amusing little note
on the back cover, about what should be on the front cover, I have included a high resolution scan in the download so you can read it.A bit more etching trivia, I think this is another take on the classic "Porky Prime Cut" this one has "A Spikey Spectacular"

Year: 1978
