RELEASE DATE

Reissue, originally released in 1988. Hailing from the former northern mining town of Wigan, between Manchester and Liverpool, the short-lived
Electro Hippies
were a band like no other, saluted as icons of crust punk and proto-grindcore. Following some cassette demos, a shared LP with Newcastle's Generic and a Peel session, debut LP
The Only Good Punk... ...Is A Dead One
surfaced on Peaceville with twenty songs, all clocking in at under two minutes (around half being less than 60 seconds). Highly political, deeply ironic, and with a snatch of
Black Sabbath
in the mix,
The Only Good Punk
is the band at their blistering best, the peak that preceded their ultimate downfall. Clear vinyl.
