Exactly 33 years after the release of the classic compilation 'Volume, Contrast, Brilliance... Vol. 1' comes this wonderful collection of unreleased and rare demos. Spanning 1978 to 1991, these cuts range from DIY sounding to high quality studio recordings. Many of the tracks are real gems, of which some failed to be released -or properly recorded- for a variety of reasons which are explained in the liner notes. The range of styles displayed is typical of this iconic and highly influential band.
