Cold War Illusion: The Complete Studio Sessions LP
Sometime ago I recall coming across a COLD WAR recording of “The Machinist” and being intrigued, but that feeling wore off quickly when I grew frustrated of trying to find more from this allusive anarcho-punk band. COLD WAR was a short-lived project in the early 1980s, and their recordings were not widely distributed. However, thanks to a collaboration between Grow Your Own Records and Ohne Grund Schallplatten the entirety of COLD WAR’s recorded history can be heard. If you’re a fan of things like PART1, later CRASS records output, the Steve Ignorant project SCHWARTZENEGGAR, 1981, or even THATCHER ON ACID, you’ll be wanting this in your stockpile. Personally, this one is going in my permanent collection.
