Broken Bones formed after several members left Discharge. They had a similar sound, and like Discharge moved in a more metal direction over the next few years. Broken Bones quickly moved to the front rank of the then production UK hardcore punk scene. Broken Bones mixed the raw drive of early hardcore punk with the power of metal to move into the forefront of the then burgeoning Crossover scene. This LP compiles the bands best tracks from their 1980’s singles. It’s the vinyl version of a CD which has been out for several years. Due to time constraints, some of the tracks from CD were omitted. However, what you get is some the very best of this bands material, their first two 7s, and the seminal 12″ eps. This band has been one of my favorites since the 80’s. In fact, my second tattoo was the artwork off a Broken Bones LP. It’s still there on my left bicep almost 30 years later, and this material is still raging hard.
