Back From the Grave 4
NEW, FACTORY SEALED! GERMANY IMPORT! FROM CRYPT RECORDS!29 tracks of raw n crude mid-60s garage punk!"Crypt Records gave the nerd-heavy world of record collecting a serious blast of gusto when the company introduced its long-running Back from the Grave compilation series. Over the course of eight beer-busted volumes, label honcho Tim Warren has displayed impeccable taste, including only the most vital teenage wail on his collections. This compact disc release is compiled primarily from Vol. 7 of the original vinyl series, and for fans of forgotten mid-'60s garage rock bands, it's serious action. Of note is the inclusion of two songs from the Spiders, an Arizona-based garage act that soon changed its name to Alice Cooper and followed a freakier muse. It's all prime raunch from rock-drunk teenagers who pack each non-hit with primitive rhythms, awkward emotions, and rudimentary guitar solos; in other words, rock & roll in its purest form." - Fred Beldin & allmusic.com
