THREAT FROM THE PAST / CIVILISATION RECORDS love to work together with the swedish Hardcore, Raw Punk legend THE BRISTLES, after re-releasing their first two EP´s ("Don´t Give Up" - 1983 and "Boys Will Be Boys" - 1984) and their "Last Days Of Capitalism" LP (2015), there has been an urgent need to re-release their "Ban The Punkshops" tape (from 1983). This album has never been on vinyl before, so the sixteen songs got remastered in autumn 2020 and Robin Wiberg, Sweden did some sweet new artwork for the front cover, due to some delays from label sideas well as the from band side it took some time to realize this project. Finally over thirty-seven years later this classic swedish Punk release sees the light of day again !!!
THE BRISTLES on this album are different to the typical swedish Crust, Hardcore bands of these days: MOB 47, DISARM, MODERAT LIKVIDATION, ANTI-CIMEX played raw, fierce D-Beat, Hardcore but THE BRISTLES are more on the Punk, OI! (only in their early days) side. On "Ban The Punkshops" you can listen to sixteen catchy but powerful, sometimes faster Punk tunes. Tracks like "Ban The Punkshops", "Give Peace A Chance", "Fuck The Nazis", "Black And White Unite", ... perfectly show that THE BRISTLES were and still are a political Punk band. If you already own all the other THE BRISTLES releases but need the "Ban THe Punkshops" tape on vinyl, don´t hesitate and buy this masterpiece !!!
