WIPERS

"Youth of America"

Park Avenue       PA82802

1981

ORIGINAL LABEL AND 1ST PRESSING and 1st COVER


Jackpot Records (who reissued the LP years later) said of this LP:  "a sophisticated, overwhelming response to the evil times marked by the turn of the decade. Broken up into six long songs, “Youth of America” is a much colder, harrowing experience than the teen angst of their debut. Vocally, Sage comes off as sleep-deprived and forsaken, snarling not only at his own predicament but at the predicament of the entire world.   The centerpiece of the album is the title track, a dire ten minutes of paranoia and angst that gave Sage the space to showcase his wildest, darkest playing yet. As bassist Brad Davidson and drummer Brad Naish hold the same hypnotic rhythm for the entire song, the guitar careens and swoops with such a frantic energy it seems as though it’s the only thing keeping Sage alive in the maelstrom of sound.

I picked this up at KGNU's Book & Record Sale in Boulder, Colorado in the Summer of 1982 and it has been stored vertically in a smoke free environment since then (34 years, man!).
