Killed By John Peel Vol.1
(2020)
From the amazingly rich vaults of John Peel's BBC 1 Radio session recordings, comes one of the best punk rock compilations we've heard in a long while. Focusing on the less known side of the huge Peel Sessions catalog, Killed By John Peel comes stuffed to the rafters with mind blowing and little known gems> from the opening track with French Synth Punk pioneers Metal Urbain and the incendiary recording of their hit "e-202" to the closing with the kick ass Power Pop Punk hit "She's Alarming" by the Wasps, each and every single track on this monster of a record presents a band at their prime giving it all at the legendary BBC Radio 1 studios.
