The Exploited - Troops Of Tomorrow (Vinyl)
Well, what can I say about this album. It's the best The Exploited release. Ever. Also it's quite possibly one of the best punk albums ever made. Troops Of Tomorrow is also the album famous for coining the term UK82. (the song bearing that name is on the album).
Compared to previous late-seventies punk UK 82 bands tended to be faster and more aggressive and lyrically much darker and more violent, focusing on nuclear holocaust, Cold War, unemployment and of course the policies of the British Conservative Party.
The album managed to maintain the raw and angry vibe of their earlier "Punks Not Dead" album but gave this some extra depth and a damn good production to go with it. Quite possibly even their best produced release during the eighties. The sound is crystal clear yet vile, heavy and punk. All instruments are not just easily identifiable and audible but also sound great on their own. Not too heavy, not too thin, Just perfect. (Metal Archives)

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
