THE VICTIMS - Girls Don't Go For Punks 7'' 2023

Now a damn cool 7Inch and I think it's a record with the shortest playing time, two smashers under two minutes, and this interests me immediately. In advance, this little beauty was sold exclusively at their last show @ the Rosemount Hotel/Perth on the 10th of June 2023. Legendary Perth Punk combo the Victims (active from 1977-1979 and best known for their classic ‘Television Addict’regrouped in 2019 to play a handful of gigs and re-record a few of their old tunes. I guess, I don't need to write any more words, there's a lot to read about the band on the www and I think it's just fantastic that the guys haven't lost any of their power and enthusiasm for playing, they sound a little bit better with the new studio recording options, the record is fun and belongs in every record collection, but that will be difficult, because it is limited to 150 copies: 75 on orange, 75 on green vinyl and was released via In The Red Recordings. You can find more splendid recordings on the compilation All Loud On The Western Front from 1989, which includes their two 7Inches from their active life-span. I think, I have piqued your interest & I am grateful for such great input.
