THE SCREAMERS 

"STRENGTH THROUGH INTIMIDATION - THE 1978 GEZA X DEMOS" LP

ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING

This is the best sounding version of this material. Without question, The Screamers are the greatest band in the history of punk to never issue an official release. They were decades ahead of their time and were admired heavily by Iggy Pop (who wanted to produce them) and Devo (who wanted to tour with them nationally). The Screamers practically pioneered the genre known as "synth punk" single-handedly, as they featured two synthesizes in favor of using guitars.

This demo was recorded live by Geza X during the summer of '78 in one session and is by far their absolute defining recorded moment. 

Features really cool artwork, correct song titles, and detailed accurate information regarding the recording session, unlike earlier (and much more inferior) versions of this demo recording. 

This is a must for any fan of the Screamers or fans of synth punk or minimal synth. 

Track listing:

122 Hours of Fear I/ 122 Hours of Fear II/ Thru The Flames/ Sex Boy/ If I Can't Have/ She's The Girl/ Magazine Love/ Punish Or Be Damned/ The Beat Goes On/ Peer Pressure/ I Wanna Hurt/ Vertigo/ It's a Violent World/ In a Better World/ Government Love Affair.
