AOA debuted on vinyl with Who Are They Trying To Con? 12" in 1985. A year later they returned with the split LP with fellow Scots better known as Oi Polloi with an album called Unlimited Genocide. The trilogy of albums is closed with Satisfactory Arrangement that was recorded in 1986 and 1987 and finally released in 1988.
This is relentless anarcho punk/hardcore with a message. It runs at 200 mph and takes no prisoners. Their nickname ´the Scottish Discharge´ probably tells you everything about the ferocity of their music. Lyrically, AOA blast at everyone, from big corporations, to animal testing laboratories, to capitalism, to the situation in Northern Ireland, to police brutality and more.
The reissue of this 80s classic comes completely remastered on 180 gr vinyl in gatefold sleeve containing all the lyrics, plus a download code. There are 700 copies on black vinyl and 100 on red vinyl. You can order your copy here:
