"A complete reissue of the long out-of-print masterpiece, and 4th release by '70's L.A. punk icons, The Flesh Eaters! Atavistic's Hard Road to Follow reissue also includes 5 bonus tracks & deluxe artwork in an oversize lyric booklet. Excerpted from Byron Coley's liner notes: 'Although it was not the last album to be issued under the name of The Flesh Eaters, Hard Road to Follow occupies a unique and special place in the band's pantheon. Released in 1983, by Chris D's own Upsetter label, it was the fourth annual and final installment in the original sequence of Flesh Eaters' albums. Hard Road was also the first to have the same line-up as its predecessor, forever came today. The band's fourth corrosive masterpiece in as many years, hard road is the best evidence of a band that had achieved a still unequaled massiveness of sound. For my money, this particular version of The Flesh Eaters represents the greatest rock band ever. They were it. Their live shows (of which I missed only two or three) were uniformly mind-melting, and while the records they left cannot convey everything that The Flesh Eaters were, they remain among the best albums ever.'"
