CIRCUS OF POWER - CIRCUS OF POWER

Back in the 1980's the Los Angeles rock scene cultivated spandex, glam and big - make that HUGE - hair, whilst in New York a far grittier aesthetic was being honed; one that would promote the hard working, hard living ethos of an inner city blighted by forgotten neighborhoods and low employment. The perfect backdrop, in fact, for the low-down high volume rock 'n roll of no-frills minimalists such as the Ramones, Raging Slab, Smashed Gladys, Blitzspeer and... Circus of Power. COP, as they were commonly known amongst friends and fans, lived life on the edge; a trail blazing sound. Spotted by esteemed NYC-based producer Daniel Rey, they were snapped up, together with Raging Slab, by the giant RCA label, creating one of the greatest debut hard rock albums of the era. Raw, edgy and extremely dangerous, Circus of Power's debut album, originally released in 1989, is a seething guitar-fueled temper tantrum that remains as powerful today as it was when first released. 24-bit remastering from original source tapes, 5 bonus tracks, 4,000 word story of the making of the album, full involvement by the band, rare photos, all spread out over a superb 12 page full color booklet.
