PART 1 - FUNERAL PARADE

LP - IMPORT

Part 1 formed in 1980 and, alongside Rudimentary Peni and Crass, were part of the original London anarcho punk scene, ultimately disbanding after playing a show with Subhumans in 1983. The band's only vinyl release during this time was the "Funeral Parade" EP, released in a limited run of 300 copies in October 1982. As well as an anarcho punk classic, the record is now regarded as a seminal deathrock release, largely due to the dark, heavy, flanged guitar work, morbid images and anti-religious lyrical themes. This very special reissue finally sees this lost classic receiving a long-deserved quality release: a remastered 12" vinyl in a deluxe gatefold sleeve with accompanying horror zine "I...Paraworm," packed with never-seen text and unpublished art from the pen of guitarist Mark Ferelli, all contemporaneous to the 1982 release. 12"ep includes digital download.
