The legendary Bristol noisy-punk masterpiece, reborn on crystal clear wax!
Often imitated, never matched. Radiation Reissues presents the definitive 1984 hardcore explosion from Bristol's finest scruffbags. Following their debut, this album upped the ante—faster, wilder, and noisier than anything before it. This exclusive limited clear vinyl edition is the ultimate way to experience this '80s punk artifact.
Formed in Bristol in 1979, Chaos UK became the epitome of 'UK82' hardcore. Short Sharp Shock is their masterpiece, often described as the sound of a 'punch in the face'. It is the missing link between traditional punk and the faster, skater-punk sound that followed, delivering 27 minutes of adrenaline-fueled punk rock.
