FEED YOUR HEAD & AND THE 8TH SIN IS CALLED POP! - Split 1990

A lot of you request this album and it's no wonder why. Two great bands from the U.K. and Germany here. A few words to both bands: Feed Your Head are a band from the Manchester area that started around 1986. The name came from a very obvious song by Jefferson Airplane the very psychedelic 'White Rabbit'. In their life time they released three demos, two singles and two full length studio LP's. Plus featured on various compilations. F.Y.H. played live and toured with most of other punk bands in the scene at the time. The songs here are originally released on side 2 of the 'Stargazer' album which was released earlier in the U.K. & this provides the best material from that record. The 8th Sin Is Called Pop! are from Kiel and they released a split EP with Agitare Bene in 1989 and this 12'' called "Crown Of Thorns". Both bands playin' a decent melodic punk guitar which are supported by violins and this is unique here. Evey song is a race to get to the chorus, perfect harmonies mixed with a dash melancholy and done is the unusual punk rock album. This record should been seen as a triumph, Yeah, I love it!!
