X.S.Energy

X.S.Energy were a fine band from Lincoln producing two singles on Dead Good Records. The first one 18 / Jennys Alright / Horrorscope and the second is from 1979 Use You / Imaginary. The latter is the pick… midtempo punk riffery with catchy chorus. Pop punkish with sung, as opposed to shouted or sneered, vocals. Worth getting.

Collectors get ready to cream yourself – Eighteen came in 3 different coloured photocopied sleeves (pink paper, green paper, yellow paper) on the ‘World Records’ 1st pressing, folded ‘National Crisis Souvenir Issue’ sleeve on ‘Dead Good Records’ 2nd pressing and a plain white die-cut rubber-stamped sleeve for the 3rd pressing.

Nothing is known about the band which is very unusual given people’s tendency to come out at the faintest whiff of a mention or scenting money or even just to be helpful.
