Description

Deluxe double cassette box set featuring Killed by Deathrock Vol. 1 and Killed by Deathrock Vol. 2. Comes packaged with mini folded postcard with original artwork by Alex Heir. Limited to 100.

After the initial blast of punk rock bands made their impression on the youth of the late 1970s, subgenres quickly emerged. Some preferred the faster, louder aggression of hardcore, others the angular danceability of post-punk, some the raw and more personal home-made sound of DIY, and so on. Looking back among and between these genres we now recognize various blends of punk, post-punk, goth rock, industrial, and DIY as “deathrock." In 2014, Sacred Bones Records launched the series Killed By Deathrock to document an entire scene of bands that haven't yet received proper recognition. This tapes set collects the first two volumes.
