Released on the Portuguese Extremocidente label and available via the usual good outlets whilst stocks last.

'Hymns Of Faith' by Crisis is finally re-released after some thirty years and yet it seems like only yesterday that I bought it upon its release. For thirty years, I have championed Crisis, like some kind of leper in the musical wilderness. I still cannot believe that La Vida Es Un Mus finally heard me. Very few records deserve the tag of classic, but 'Hymns Of Faith' is a classic record! Recorded by a band that was in the throes of death, this mini-LP features seven tracks of political punk (although some would describe it as post punk, an insult of the worst kind), covering the political spectrum from the Italian Red Brigades to the Kanada Kommando of Auschwitz. The LP may have lacked the bite of the earlier singles, but 'Hymns' was innovative and original, and has never been bettered, yet alone equalled. Forget 'Killed By Death', this my friends is the real deal! After Crisis, Douglas P and Tony Wakeford formed Death In June and Luke Rendall joined Theatre Of Hate. Kneel and bow in reverence to 'Hymns Of Faith'!

In commemoration of the 30th Anniversary of the release of the 'Hymns Of Faith' LP and the subsequent disintegration of CRISIS an official CRISIS T-shirt! The first in decades.

Wholesale orders are also welcome.

The official biography of Death In June (written only in Italian for the moment) is now out!



It's 420 pages long, has 32 full colour pages of photographs, many of which contain never before seen photos from my personal collection, has 3 chapters dedicated to my formative years in England and CRISIS as well as large extracts from an extensive interview conducted on and off over 9 years with Italian journalist Aldo Chimenti.



Also with the book is an exclusive audio CD of a separate interview conducted in English featuring 8 songs from the Death In June canon of work plus radio jingles/adverts for concerts and releases.

This CD will not be available elsewhere separately, or with any other possible future version of this book.

So, even if you can't understand Italian there are plenty of pictures and sounds that should be of interest!

Whilst I understand that the limited hardback edition of 'Nascosto Tra Le Rune' (Hidden Amongst The Runes) is now sold out the paperback edition is still available direct from Tsunami Edizioni for 35 EUROs plus postage.



Contact info@tsunamiedizioni.it with your address/country for a quote for postage.

At present only a few of your usual stockists such as Soleilmoon will be stocking this exclusive book so, unless you've ordered elsewhere I do suggest direct contact with Tsunami Edizioni is the best way to get one.

Both tracks are previously unreleased in vinyl format and until the re-issue in cd format of the "Lesson One: Misanthropy" compilation both were practically unheard of.
