THE SECT - This Side Of Summer EP 1992

Pretty three piece EP from the 333 x Up & Down series which was created in the Nineties by the legendary Incognito Records label and each release is limited to 333 copies. And Barny, the founder, was guest at Nolti's New Rose on Nikolaus last year and chatted about the early days, his publications, experiences, re-releases, mp3's and more nice anecdotes in a relaxed atmosphere and it's really fun to listen to both. Very interesting for me because I had the pleasure of getting to know him in the Hamburger Marquee when Broken Toys was on tour with the Schwarzen Schafe and I was doing civil service in Lüneburg at the time. I was even able to visit the tour a second time, in Oberursel. It was all in the early nineties and I also bought a few singles from him. - The Sect was a melodic Punk combo with an edge done the old way from the West Midlands and consisted of Kevin (vocals), Terry & kevin (guitars), Kevin P. (bass), John (drums) and were active from 1986 - 1992 and released two albums (listen) and a couple of 7Inches and they playing catchy powerful solid melodic songs in the vein of GNW or HDQ and didn't get unfortunately a lot of attention and stayed more in the underground and only a must for die-hard fans. Do yourself a favour and choose this one and enjoy their awesome sound.
