The ‘80s have seen a renaissance of crappy music spring up as an homage of late. And while it’d be relatively easy to malign the entire decade – what with its pop and synth nonsense – there was as much incredibly enticing stuff coming out over that ten year period as in subsequent times.

You just have to dig for it.

None of this directly leads to an examination of Another Shot for Bracken (1986), but the compilation, which was released through 7 Seconds’ record label, grants listeners a wide ranging taste of what was going on in the underground. Of course, not every genre is represented over the 17 tracks here, but there’s more than just hardcore.
