Available for the first time No Plan Records conjures first-class nuggets by one of my favorite bands out of the hat. Recorded 1980 with their original drummer Tig, these demos have never been previously released and resurfaced now when the band is about to celebrate its 40th bithday. Why they never put these recordings on vinyl remains a mystery. Perhaps because shortly afterwards they changed the drummer and wanted to record these songs with him? On this deluxe gatefold longplayer you'll find ten originals from back in the day and one exclusive cover (Peggy Sue) recorded live in 1980 as well. As for Newtown Neurotics, you know what you can expect: heartfelt tuneful punk rock that makes you stop and reflect upon things, just like punk is supposed to. Edition of 350 copies, 300 black vinyl, 50 blue. If you don't know the band, I definitely recommend you, to look for more, no matter if compilations or albums. They're still active and in 2018, funds for a full-length documentary on the band's history were successfully raised through Kickstarter: Kick Out!: The Newtown Neurotics Story. Enjoy!
