Detention Dead Rock ‘N Rollers LP
This is early 1980s hardcore punk from New Jersey, and yes, that is the same art as used on Killed By Death #2—DETENTION is also on that album. New Jersey has always been a hotbed of hardcore punk bands. They are the most densely populated state in the country, so of course they are. DETENTION was there at the beginning of the New Jersey hardcore punk scene, and their sound at times is in the same territory as the ANGRY SAMOANS and fellow New Jersey hardcore punkers T.M.A. This collection has their 7″, their mini-LP, and a few unreleased songs to round it out. The highlight is still their classic song “Dead Rock ‘N Rollers,” and it’s nice to have an official copy that I don’t have to pay $500 for. Limited 100 on clear and 200 on black, so if you want this, you probably should not wait to buy it.
