Vintage punk from 1979. Spasmodic Caress were a hugely successful live band playing frequently in and around East Anglia, as well as supporting the likes of Bauhaus & In Camera. Spasmodic Caress were also briefly signed to 4ad and contributed the track "Hit the Dead" to the "Presage(s)" mini album. The track "Hit the Dead" has subsequently been covered by US punk band the Spitz. Fragments captures the original Falling A release of the Hillside sessions as well as the 4ad sponsored gig at the Rock garden with Bauhaus. This is a truly authentic historic release.
