COURT MARTIAL - " No Solution: Singles & Demos 1981/1982" Lp (ltd color vinyl)
Obscure British punk quartet Court Martial formed in Bristol in 1980, part of the same scene that gave rise to Chaos UK, Vice Squad, The Partisans, and Anti-Pasti. This comparative compilation captures the group at their rawest beginnings, surveying the unfiltered demos they cut before signing to Riot City Records, as well as the more professional efforts that resulted in the 12-inch singles "No Solution" and "Gotta Get Out." The material finds our heroes switching between fast n' furious diatribes and fuzzy dirges, and alternating the demos with the singles allows you to witness their progression. Great early '80s Brit punk.
