The Only Good Punk... (Is a Dead One)

THE CULT 1988 ALBUM FROM THE UK CRUST GODS, ELECTRO HIPPIES - PRESENTED ON MID-PRICE CD.

Cult UK crust punk/metal act Electro Hippies was formed in 1985 in Wigan by Simon (drums) & Bruno (Bass), followed by Andy on guitars (& then vocals). Originally setting out with the short-lived intention of recording a single demo (even featuring Jeff Walker among their ranks before moving on to Carcass), the band went on to release the seminal 'The Only Good Punk.(Is a Dead One)' in 1988; among the very first proper releases on the newly formed Peaceville Records.

The album was recorded November/December of 1987 at Lion Studios in Leeds, West Yorkshire, & saw a release the following year. It demonstrated a perfect attack of lo-fi crust, hardcore & grind, with Electro Hippies also notably recording a session for the legendary John Peel. The band eventually split in 1989 though have always retained a strong cult following.
