Set To Self Destruct (#024)

[ZS]

And we're back. Excuse the extended absence, and enjoy the newest compilation. A themed edition, no less, in that all twenty-three tracks feature a female vocalist. I won't dwell on that element of it though, because frankly this is just a great selection of punk and post-punk, regardless of any supposed theme you slap on it. No girl power bullshit needed. Do you like good music? No? Well then what are you doing here? Yes? Then clickety-click, motherfucker!
