Part art piece, part punk, part metal: The controversial Plasmatics broke taboos and blew the lid off what critics and audiences alike knew as punk music. Incorporating theatrics, barking vocals and a focus on end-of-the-world visions, 1980's New Hope for the Wretched is a technically solid punk record from a groundbreaking band. Drastic Plastic Records is pleased to present our superb repressing of Plasmatics' first album in all it's chainsaw-guitar-solo glory, along with a poster and insert, recreated from it's original release.
