Description
This is the Subhumans (from Vancouver, Canada) FIRST OFFICIAL RELESE, the ULTRA-RARE "Death to the Sickoids/Oh Canaduh" 7", released in 1978 on the independent label Copyright Control. ONLY 500 COPIES WERE MADE AND ONLY A FEW REMAIN 35 YEARS LATER! This is the only Subhumans release featuring the late drummer Ken "Dimwit" Montgomery, who would quit the band to join D.O.A., where he replaced his brother Charles "Chuck Biscuits" Montgomery. Also features Brian "Wimpy Roy" Goble on vocals, Gerry "Useless" Hannah on bass and Mike "Normal" Graham on guitar.
This original pressing has the following numbers and letters etched in the dead wax: "A45/35-A", "3538 (2)", "A45/35-B", "3538 (2)" and "KPG". Their rarest release ever since only 500 were made back in the day. GREAT Canadian punk rock legends à-la-D.O.A., featuring singer Wimpy Roy, who would later join D.O.A. on bass and vocals. This record was recorded in 1978, engineered by Dick Drake and produced by Crass Productions. Wimpy wrote the track "Death to the Sickoids" and Gerry wrote "Oh Canaduh"
Gerry Hannah quit the band a couple of years after this release, sold his guitar and became an urban-guerilla! He spent five years of a 10 years sentence in prison in the beginning of the 80's for bombing a nuclear-warhead plant in Toronto and a dam that threatened the environment in B.C.! Talk about being dedicated to your cause! :) I also have listed a rare tape he recorded in prison.
Record and sleeve in great condition with a bit of wear and a couple of wrinkles due to age. NO SEAM SPLIT. And record plays perfectly without skipping. (SEE PICTURE!). Pay by PayPal. Please take a look at my other auctions :) Please Note that I sell to ANYBODY willing to pay (no country-discrimination here!) and NO SHIPPING CHARGES. Me too, I hate those people who ask more money for «handling» or «packing» or «their time». I do the work by myself and with a smile and I recycle envelopes and boxes and use brown bags for packing and I pack well :) I treat my customers the way I like to be treated!
