The Adverts: Crossing The Red Sea With The Adverts auf 2 LPs

Product Information

»Released after an ever growing live following and the string of

successful chart hits The Advert’s debut has cemented its place in

punk rock history. From the sonic Armageddon which ushers in

›One Chord Wonders‹ through to the deliriously protracted fade

of ›Great British Mistake‹, ›Crossing The Red Sea‹ never put a foot

wrong. Created at the height of Punk, recorded with all the venom

and passion which gave the era such vitality, ›Crossing the Red Sea‹

was at once a statement of intent and a bellow of defiance, a refusal

to take anything for granted, even its own brilliance. More than

that, though, the album defined and thus became the precious

moment in time when the establishment rules of rock fell away, and

new ones still had to be carved out. And by those brittle standards,

the Adverts weren’t simply crossing the Red Sea, They were

parting it.« - Dave Thompson
