''Back from the Grave, Volumes 5 and 6 (CD)'' is a re-mastered CD that combines into one disc volumes 5 and 6 of the original 1983 LPs in the Back from the Grave series of garage rock compilations out by Tim Warren of Crypt Records.〔 - LP Liner notes and cover artwork.〕 This CD was released in 2015. Until the advent of this CD in 2015, there had been no prior releases of volumes 5 and 6 on CD, as all of the songs which were included on the volumes 5 and LPs, appeared instead on volumes 1-4 in the old CD series—the entries in that old CD series differed dramatically from the LPs. However, this CD is a part of a new ''Back from the Grave'' sub-series which attempts to more faithfully replicate the song selection original LPs, bringing the series for ther first time into multi-media coherence.〔 In keeping with all of the entries in the series, this collection consists of songs which display the rawer and more aggressive side of the genre and are often characterized by the use of fuzztone-distorted guitars and rough vocals.〔 The set generally excludes psychedelic, folk rock, and pop-influenced material in favor of basic primitive rock and roll.〔〔 The packaging features well-researched liner notes written by Tim Warren which convey basic information about each song and group, such as origin, recording date, and biographical sketches, usually written in a conversational style that includes occasional slang, anecdotes, humorous asides.〔〔 The liner notes are noticeably opinionated, sometimes engaging in tongue-in-cheek insults directed at other genres of music.〔〔 The packaging also includes photographs of the bands, and the front cover features a highly satirical cartoon by Mort Todd depicting revivified zombies, in customary fashion, returning to wreak havoc, this time exacting joyful revenge on practically the whole human race (or at least on those members of it who do not satisfy their minimal requirements of what they consider to be hip), thus using a variety of noxious substances and even resorting to the nuclear option, while a handful of their victims wallow in a "hydroconformic acid hot tub."〔 The set begins with "Warning," by the Humans, from Albion, New York.〔 followed by "Real Fine Lady," by the Warlords. The Vestells were from eastern Pennsylvania and recorded "Won't You Tell Me" at the Cameo-Parkway Studios in Philadelphia.〔 Another featured cut is "City of People," an invective against conformist society, by he Illusions, from Detroit.〔 Also from the motor city, the Kegg's follow with what Tim Warren has called their "tortured" anthem, "To Find Out."〔 They are later heard on the cut "Girl."〔 The Jesters of Newport provide the organ-driven protopunk "Stormy, while the Tigermen from upstate New York perform "Close That Door" and the Rising Tides sing "Take the World as it Comes."〔 "My World Is Upside Down" by the Shames from Ipswich, Massachusetts, who are also later represented on the set with "Special Ones."〔 The Ascots form Ponitac Michigan play the revved up rocker "So Good."〔 "Varsity Club Song" is by the Golden Catalinas from La Crosse, Wisconsin followed by "Say You Love Me," by Billy & the Kids from Wenatchee, Washington.〔 "Come on Mary" is by the Abandoned "Love's a Fire" by the Werps. The set concludes with "Through the Night" by The Trojans Of Evol.〔 ==Track listing== #The Humans: "Warning" #The Warlords: "Real Fine Lady" #The Vestells: "Won't You Tell Me" #The Illusions: "City of People" #The Jaguars: "It's Gonna Be Alright" #The Few: "Escape" #The Tikis: "Show You Love" #The Keggs: "To Find Out" #The Jesters Of Newport: "Stormy" #The Henchmen: "Livin'" #The Tigermen: "Close That Door" #The Aztex: "The Little Streets in My Town" #The Hatfields The Kid from Cinncy #The Nobles: "Something Else" #The Centrees: "She's Good for Me" #The Rising Tides: "Take the World as it Comes" #The Shames: "My World Is Upside Down" #Long John and the Silvermen: "Heart Filled with Love" #The Keggs: "Girl" #Beaux Jens: "She was Mine" #Shames: "Special Ones" #The Savoys: "Can It Be" #The Ascots: "So Good" #The Barracudas: "Baby Get Lost" #The Golden Catalinas: "Varsity Club Song" #Billy and the Kids: "Say You Love Me" #The Shandels: "Caroline" #The Shandels: "Mary Mary" #The Abandoned: "Come on Mary" #The Treytones: "Nonymous" #The Bryds: "Your Lies" #The Werps: "Love's a Fire" #The Trojans of Evol: "Through the Night"〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Back from the Grave, Volumes 5 and 6 (CD)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
