Government Issue - the fun just never ends LP / CD

  • fountain of youth. 017 / 9 tracks / 1985
  • RI (CD): giant. gri 6039-2 / 20 tracks / 1990
  • 500 on yellow/white marbled vinyl (this was apparently a repress and not the first press). CD reissue includes Joyride LP plus one live track (“Vanity Fare”)
  • This marks the transition from their hardcore phase to the emo/rock influenced phase, with both styles contributing about 50% to the music. Great music, lots of hits, just the recording of the vocals is kind of strange - sounds like Stabb sang over a telephone receiver. One of their best LPs, nonetheless. [8]
  • Markiert den Übergang vom reinen Hardcore zum etwas rockigeren Sound; beide Stilrichtungen sind zu etwa 50% enthalten. Ansonsten gibt es viele Hits, der Sound ist auch ganz gut (nur Stabb klingt so, als würde er übers Telefon singen… seltsam). Gefällt mir insgesamt sehr gut, eine der besten GI-Platten.
  • Tracks: fun and games / written word / mad at myself / the next time / bored to death // vanity fare / world caved in / massacre / trapped
