THE HOAX - So What 1980

I can completely dedicate this month to Fredrik, so much new stuff came in that I can save the credits. Next slab is the debut mini LP of the Hoax on Hologramme Music with eight classics. The band was formed in Manchester 1979 by Ian (vocals), Andy (guitar), Steve (bass), Mike (drums) and in their short lifespan three more singles were recorded and on some relevant compilaions present as well. Bin Liner Records released in 2007 an essential compilation called "And So It Went 1979-1981" with all their recordings. Catchy mid-tempo punk with good lyrics and pressed in finest blue vinyl, certainly not uninteresting for collectors among you, grab it!

- Great Thx to Fredrik -
