The Hammersmith Gorillas, Simply Saucer, Radio Birdman, Death ... And The Imperial Dogs!

"An early demo collection of vicious proto-punk akin to what the Hammersmith Gorillas, Simply Saucer, the Imperial Dogs, Radio Birdman and precious few others were creating in that dire period predating the Ramones first LP," is how veteran rock journo Byron Coley describes the recently unearthed Spiritual, Mental, Physical album from Detroit band-of-brothers Death -- whose previously unreleased 2009 For The Whole World To See LP brought them belated recognition as punk-rock-pioneers -- here in The Wire.
