RI (3” CD): D: lost & found. lf 056 / 1993

+ lyric sheet. Produced by Don Fury. Two pressings of 500-1000 each. First press with colored sleeve with large X and guitar player. Some early copies have an “X” in lighter blue color. Most have white, a few have red labels. Second press with b&w sleeve (live photo of Sammy), red or grey labels. German reissue on 3”CD only, 1000 made initially (might have been repressed).

A killer release from the early days of the sXe revival. Fast and powerful hardcore, in the style that all the bands played back then. This is far from innovative, but the music has that extra bit of power & drive; I like it. [7]  

Noch ein Knaller aus der Frühzeit des SE-Revivals; schnell & kraftvoll. Von Originalität allerdings keine Spur, man spielt die Musik, die alle spielten, ohne irgendwelche neuen Einflüsse. Aber die Platte hat Power und Drive, und wem das genügt, hat sicher Spaß damit.
