D.O.A. – War on 45 (30th anniversary)

(The 30th Anniversary Reissue of D.O.A’s ‘War On 45’. This is the first time this epic release has been available on vinyl in over 15 years. It was produced by THOM WILSON (Offspring) and released on Faulty Products and then Alternative Tentacles way back in 1982. While not a full album, this 8 song EP plays at 45 rpm (which confused a lot of people back in the day as they played it at 33 rpm) and it was Canada’s most influential band’s follow up to their acclaimed ‘Hardcore 81’ album. ‘War On 45’ was hailed as a barrier breaker with its collection of anti-war songs right at the height of President Ronald Reagan’s cold war rhetoric and nuclear arms buildup!)
