'Africa Corps Live at The Whisky A Go Go 30th December 1981', is here to take us right there, fercely catapulting listeners in front of one of Los Angeles' most iconic stages, back when a young band of UCLA students (Bruce Licher, Mark Erskine, Philip Drucker and Jeff Long), was starting to make its way in the punk underground\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTheir extraordinary frst time at the Whisky was recorded on cassette, direct from the sound board, on December 30th, 1981. We're lucky enough to witness most of the future 'Tragic Figures' tracks in a process of highly creative gesta- tion, in the middle of being developed. The original tape has now been remastered by Warren DeFever (His Name Is Alive) and unearths a most cathartic performance. It's hard to fathom, but the four musicians had only been playing together for about eight months at that point, mostly rehearsing in the concrete parking garages at UCLA. Those formative experiences are brilliantly re- fected in the sound of 'Africa Corps Live at The Whisky A Go Go 30th December 1981', with its hypnotic blend of industrial and piercing post punk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCD Deluxe Packaging Tracks: First Assembly (Live) \/ Next to Nothing (Live) \/ Real\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eMen (Live) \/ Attempted Coup: Madagascar (Live) \/ Exodus (Live) \/ Machinery\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(Live) \/ Mobilization (Live) \/ Kill the Fascists!
