HAND GRENADES - Demo To London 7'' 1979

There are certainly hotter records than the one that follows up now, but somehow the slab impose itself and after listening to it several times, the choice fell on this inconspicuous combo. Once upon a time 1979 in New York, home base of the Hand Grenades, and the four piece consisted of Bob (vocals/guitar), Dave (guitars), Steve (bass), Jon (drums). And that is the artifact of their long lost D.I.Y. nugget; A little piece of action which features two obscure tracks from their only 7Inch which they self-released in an undetermined quantity with omitted information. This kept these recordings hard-to-find for years. Last Laugh Records did a little research and released this Munro in 2018 with two more songs in a filigree 12" format, listen. That's is folks!... but wait... I should mention that the flip was used for the mega-fucking-rare Killed By 7Inch #3 compilation. And now off to the weekend... 😸
