One of the earliest NYHC lp rarities is the first Damage lp - Sins Of Our Fathers. Damage have a pretty classic pre-’85 sound for NYC, somewhere between Victim In Pain, Adjustment To Society, and the first Reagan Youth lp maybe. The difference is, they never made it to an actual studio (as far as I know). Instead they released 2 albums recorded live off the board at CBGBs, this being the first and far more rare one on Gnarl Records. Another odd aspect of the band was that they had 2 bass players, which apparently wasn’t so unheard of in New York back in the day, as The Cavity Creeps had a setup like this too. Something like 300-500 of this lp pressed but at least half must have fallen into a black hole because you rarely see it. Cover and insert look to be in nice shape too. Seller has plenty of other key items from all over the board, from Japanese HC, to early post-HC, to South American Metal.
