Someone requested a re-up
for the PURE PRESSURE demo, so here it is, as a bit of a bonus I've
included a 1985 demo from THE FITS here, which sounds like Slaughter
and The Dogs meeting The Cult and was a pointer towards the musical
direction Pure Pressure took. The text below is from the original
post:
The
Fits came from Blackpool, and were a slight cut above the rest of the
1980’s Punk bands; with their Rock’n’Roll tinged Punk rock
tunes; less thrash more trash! Sadly they split up around 1985
amongst a mess of eyeliner and violence. Singer Mickey Fits had taken
to wearing make up on stage, as a reaction to the violence that often
marred Punk gigs during the 80’s. Fortunetly this wasn’t the last
to be heard of Mickey, who went on to form Pure Pressure, along with
a couple more members of The Fits, their sound veered to the more
rocky side of things, coming across like a slightly less heavy Zodiac
Mindwarp or The Cult, while still maintaining a punk rock
sensibility. Good stuff! Give it a blast
