X - At Home With You Vinyl LP

Australian punk did not ask for your permission, and X were one of the reasons why.

Perth's X occupy a specific and important corner of the Australian alternative canon, raw, confrontational, and utterly unbothered by what was happening on the other side of the world. At Home With You, originally released in 1985, sits at the intersection of post-punk tension and rock and roll swagger, with Steve Lucas's vocals somewhere between sneer and howl. These were not polished studio creatures. This is the kind of record that Melbourne underground regulars have been pressing into each other's hands for forty years, the kind of thing you find at a market and feel smug about for a week. Owning it on vinyl is the correct move.

Format: Full length LP, vinyl. Genre: Post-Punk, Rock and Roll, Punk. Origin: Australia, original release 1985.
