Description

Forming in 1983 from the ashes of the Attack (more on them at a later date), Krieg Kopf made a name for themselves in the New York hardcore scene self-releasing two cassette albums and playing constant gigs around they city, Long Island, and beyond. The band eschewed the metal trappings that were slowly creeping into the New York hardcore sound, instead playing a simple-yet-effective brand of full-throttle punk that perfectly captures the speed and aggression of American hardcore in the 1980s.

They recorded two album-length cassettes – 1984 s Passen Sie Auf Es Ist cassette and 1986 s self-titled red tape – and in between made their sole vinyl appearance with the track Warhead on the Big City Records One Big Crowd compilation LP. 1987 saw Krieg Kopf entering the studio to produce a full-length record, but the band dissolved before the recording was completed and the session remained unmixed until 2019.

This LP collects 19 studio tracks from the two cassette albums and the LP sessions, plus one live track recorded at CBGB (where else?). Also included is a 12 x36 full-color poster insert and an iron-on transfer of the band s original t-shirt logo so you can make your very own Krieg Kopf shirt.
