New Part In Town
Canadian proto-punk pioneers! "A rich & diversely textured sound that encompassed art punk, garage rock, psychedelia and pop, all marked by a distinctly John Cale-esque appreciation of sound and jazz-influenced avant-garde flourishes." ~Paraphilia Magazine. "New York had Talking Heads, and London XTC, but here was their equal in Toronto." ~Bob Mersereau, author of The Top 100 Canadian Albums. "These underground icons merged Television's guitar work, Big Star's pop prowess, Pere Ubu's dementia & the Ramones' urgency." ~Jonathan Cummins, Montreal Mirror. 10 songs (8 previously unreleased) from 1976 all meticulously remastered from the original analog tapes. Includes 8-page booklet with story, artwork and photos. Limited to 500 copies. Includes a sticker.
