THE LAST - Look Again [USA garage, jangle, power pop 1980] 2020 Backlash HA012-1, HA012-7

 

The lost album by seminal power-pop band The Last, part of the first wave of Los Angeles punk bands alongside X and the Go-Go's. The follow-up to their debut, 1979's L.A. Explosion !, Look Again was recorded in 1980 and shopped around to labels, but failed to land the band a deal.

Test pressings of the album have gone for over $ 800 on Discogs. 

It's been restored fro the original master tapes and, according to keyboardist Vitus Mataré, "There are no new overdubs and zero digital trickery. Guitar and organ tracks were sent to the same model amplifiers Joe [Nolte] and I used live back in the day and re-recorded. These are the original performances given a proper mix.
