This is definitely not 45RPM. Either that, or my copy is weird. It plays slow at 33, and fast at 45. I have to adjust the quartz all the way down on 45RPM to get this to sound ok.

Not always a fan of remasters, but this one is very well done. The Fugitive Family tracks sound a lot more defined than on the original 7" while remaining deep and heavy. United Mutation is truly an oddball and has been a personal fave for time. Their brand of fast neurotic hardcore is essentially peerless, but I'd file it somewhere alongside early Die Kreuzen and YDI. A lot of care has gone into this one and it shows. A good example of how a reissue can really add something to a bands legacy. -
