Terminal Tower: An Archival Collection - Non Album Singles & B-Sides 1975-1980

RS: 40 Greatest Punk Albums of All-Time (40 music items)

"As punk was heating up in New York and London, it was also percolating in Cleveland, where Pere Ubu created an "industrial folk" that sounded post-punk in 1975. This archival set peaks with the chillingly anthemic heartland noir of "Final Solution," where singer David Thomas yowls over Peter Laughner's rustbelting guitar. The hard-living Laughner drank his way into an early grave by the time he was 24, but the band he co-founded is still at it today."
