MURPHY'S LAW – Murphy's Law (Self-Titled) LP (Transparent Red Vinyl)
MURPHY'S LAW (NY, USA) – Murphy's Law (Self-Titled) (sealed LP copy) (2023 BFD re-issue on Transparent Red vinyl - Indie Store exclusive version - limited to 1,800 copies worldwide.
The Self-Titled Murphy's Law debut full-length is perhaps one of the most rocking New York Punk releases to appear in the '80s. The manic tempos, masochistic vocals, and other Hardcore signatures are toned down here to better suit the group's party message.
A-political when compared to hard-line contemporaries like Cro-Mags and Agnostic Front, MURPHY'S LAW shoots for an inebriated slice-of-life essence more aligned with Boston's Gang Green.
Highlights include the Ace Frehley-inspired guitar work on Skinhead Rebel as well as the rockabilly "Wahoo Day" groove. A must-have for fans of the group and a strong recommendation for any '80s Punk scholar, Murphy's Law is simply a fun ride. -- BFD – BFD421LP
