***Mandatory collection of material, mostly ranging from '78-'80, from this short lived but absolutely crucial SF punk outfit. Similar to their peers Avengers, No Alternative never released a proper LP in their time, but this posthumous collection of single, comp and unreleased tracks stands as a powerful document of a top rate punk outfit in their prime. No Alternative bridged a gap of sorts between the 70's stew of new wave and punk and the more hardcore sound that defined the 80's. The aforementioned Avengers or X operated similarly during this antebellum period, and fans of that melodic, high energy, brand of Californian punk will rejoice hearing this collection of scarce material from one of SF's finest.
LP $24.45
