THE LEGENDARY 1989 RELEASE FROM THE INFLUENTIAL UK CRUST/METAL ACT.
PRESENTED ON MID-PRICE CD.
Doom is an English crust punk band from Birmingham, England, formed in 1987. Despite its short existence, the band is considered pivotal in the rise of crust punk movement. They recorded for Peaceville Records & are cited as an early precursor to the grindcore style of heavy metal music, & are often compared with seminal act Discharge. Doom were also a favourite of BBC Radio DJ John Peel.
In its formative years, Peaceville had heard about Doom through word of mouth & asked if they were interested in contributing songs to the first compilation, ’A Vile Peace’. Doom went into the studio to record their first demo on 28 August 1987. Three songs were recorded, two of which appeared on ’A Vile Peace’. On the strength of this first recording Peaceville asked Doom if they would record a full LP for them, which they agreed to do. In February 1988, Doom went into the “Rich Bitch” studios & recorded 21 songs for the album, ’War Crimes’.
’Total Doom’ was the band’s second album, originally released in 1989, & was a collection of the ’Police Bastard’ EP, ’War Crimes’ LP, plus the ’Bury The Debt – Not The Dead’ split release tracks.
This edition of ‘Total Doom’ is presented on mid-price CD.
