subterranean. sub 27 / 17 tracks / 1982

5649 total copies made. Early pressings have white Code of Honor logo on cover, later pressings (circa 1989 onward) have red logo. Approx. 50 copies of the first press on white vinyl, 1990 repress on red and white vinyl. Repress has same matrix number as the first press, plus Steve mentioned they might have used old covers for the repress on white, so be careful before spending a lot on alleged “first press on white” copies. + label catalog. Sick Pleasure tracks reissued on a 7” bootleg along with the 7” tracks in 2000.

Intelligent & cynical political HC by CoH; enough power & melodies to make it interesting musically. Some statements are a bit too simple, otherwise a good band. SP are one of those bands who are trying to go to war with everybody; noisy, rough and snotty hardcore punk, some melodies, too. I like this almost better than the A side. [7]

Intelligenter, etwas zynischer Polit-Hardcore von Code of Honor, der noch genug Melodien und Power hat, um nicht langweilig zu werden. Manche Aussagen sind etwas arg simpel, ansonsten eine brauchbare Band. Sick Pleasure sind eine dieser Bands, die sich einfach mit allem & jedem anlegen wollen. Krachiger, rotziger Hardcore Punk, manchmal auch mit etwas Melodie. Gefällt mir fast besser als die A-Seite.
