The discovery and subsequent release of The Adverts' Rehearsal Tape is a punk rock revelation. Dating back to 1977, this cassette recording, initially overlooked by Chiswick Records, finally sees the light of day thanks to Henry Rollins' keen ears and determination. As pioneers of the UK punk scene, The Adverts' influence looms large, with their singles and debut album cementing their status as classics of the genre. Rehearsal Tape offers a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the band's early days, capturing their energy and spirit in its purest form. Transferred and mastered with care, the tracks on this release sound incredible, retaining their original rawness while benefiting from modern production techniques. For fans of punk history, this vinyl release is a treasure trove, featuring The Adverts at their raw, unbridled best.
