Notes:  A UK pressing, this is Bram and his mates with their brand of pub rock tempered with just enoough punk sensibility to lift itself above the din from the madding crowd. Never destined for the masses the band had a few records released and then passed on. This is still an enjoyable spin every now and then. The military cover seems to be talking to the boys on the back, a call to war perhaps? The graphics fortell the style of the 80's to come.
