"Recorded in 1989 on the remaining ten minutes left at the end of
Swiz'
s
Hell Yes I Cheated
reel-to-reel and originally released at the time as a 33 RPM 7", this 2023 release presents a 12" 45RPM version remastered by
Tim Green
with an extra song recovered from the tape archives of
Jason Farrell
. The brief story of
Fury
: At some point in 1989, members of Washington DC punk bands Swiz and
Ignition
formed Fury as a loose experiment with no intentions beyond being a diversion. The band existed for a few months, wrote six songs, and played two shows.
Shawn Brown
and
Chris Thomson
switched their musical roles from their regular bands as vocalist and bass player. The eyes-closed leap into those unfamiliar positions imbued the recording its feeling of deranged chaos, while the well-seasoned duo of Jason Farrell and
Alex Daniels
nailed down each song with the signature agility and power displayed in their more familiar work together. The recording is a vexing listen that sounds like a Neapolitan swirl of Swiz,
Void
, and
The Germs
. Was it precision theatre? Or was it a natural step back into a more primitive and comfortable place for four young veterans that just wanted to fill the daily void of existential restlessness? The track 'Resurrection' famously made it onto the final Swiz LP. The final track 'Last One' got cut off halfway through recording and the band looped and spliced it into a dizzying psychedelic nightmare/masterpiece. The recording has faded into somewhat of an obscurity, a footnote to the larger careers of all of its members. In its time, it was revered by a small cult of obsessives from numerous early '90s underground punk circles. It notably had a pronounced influence on the emerging Gravity Records scene, where its echoes can be heard on quite a few of the earlier releases. Resurrection is finally getting the deluxe treatment that it deserves after 34 years!"
