House That Man Built [Import]

The House That Man Built was originally recorded and mixed at Southern Studios, North London in 1981 and released in 1982 on CRASS Records. Engineered by John Loder under the watchful eye of Crass' Penny Rimbaud (credited as Elvis Rimrod!) Conflict wasted no time stating their intent as the opening song, 'Conflict' charged into life with a razor wire guitar strike with Jerwood bellowing 'CONFLICT!' as the band revved into life. Primal basic and raw as fuck, these early Conflict tracks are the sound of the band getting to know their instruments, reveling in the freedom and expression of their sound. Penny and John did a fantastic job in harnessing Conflict's youthful energy and the single was an instant hit amongst the flourishing anarcho-punk movement. A few years ago following the passing of John Loder, the original multi track tapes were returned to the band. Colin and Gav King (Conflict guitarist of the past 18 years) sent the tapes off to be 'baked' and digitised with the intent of remixing them once their new album was complete and released. Unfortunately Colin passed away before that could happen but Gav King continued with the task of remixing the tracks that were recorded 45 years earlier. Included in the box were the original mixes on ¼inch tape so Colin's lifelong close friend, Sid Truelove of Rubella Ballet, agreed to remaster them. Includes original 'Disarm or Die' sticker.
