Mind-crushing 7LP box set housed in a deluxe book-like folder featuring the earliest recorded material from the legendary SPK, dating back to the late 70's and including some properly eye-opening material and combining all of their early works and the bands-history prior to Graeme Revell signing to Wea and to go a slightly different path and more commercial with the band's musical output.

SPK was an Australian industrial band formed in 1978 in Sydney by Graeme Revell and Neil Hill, being one of the earliest, most extreme and most influential industrial, noise, post-punk art projects. By 1983 the band was joined by other artists such as Sinan Revell, Brian 'Lustmord' Williams, John Murphy, Karel Van Bergen, Mike Wilkins, James Pinker. Without any doubt S.P.K.'s early stage from 78 to first half of 1983 and its releases such as Information Overload and Leichenschrei can be considered as ground-breaking and protagonistic for a whole industrial-music-movement to come.
SPK can be considered as influencial as other Industrial-Super-Groups such as Throbbing Gristle, Clock DVA or Cabaret Voltaire and there is no way to come-around this band when talking about the Industrial-Music-Movement. 
Stonce cold classics!!!!
