LP - Scratch Acid - ST EP/Berserker

1LP - Import

Reissue of both of Scratch Acid's EPs, remastered by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service from the original analogue tapes.

Born out of the early 1980s Austin noise punk scene, Scratch Acid deliberately eschewed the loud, fast rules of hardcore as everything they didn't want to be and embraced a weirder, artier sound.

Prior to the release of their 1984 debut "S/T EP", someone gave Touch And Go Records owner Corey Rusk a cassette of the recording, and he was instantly a huge fan. Rusk was immediately interested in releasing the EP and contacted the band to express his admiration.

At the time, Scratch Acid had already committed to working with Rabid Cat Records. A friendship formed, and Touch And Go Records would eventually release the band's second EP, "Berserker", in 1987.
