X (australia)
Aspirations (black)
Thise classic Australian punk LP is finally back in print on vinyl! Originally recorded in 1979 and released in 1980, Lobby Loyde (Coloured Balls) produced this album in a blistering 5 hour session. To say it's a raw, tough album would be a gross understatement. Steve Lucas' ragged vocals and dagger-sharp guitar work with rhythm section in a way that makes you feel like you're getting worked over like a sorry punching bag. Over the past 40 years, as three of the four original members have died, X has carved a niche for themselves as one of those rare bands who truly sound like no other. And in the process, 'Aspirations' has become a belated bonafide punk cult classic.
