THE WIPERS: "OVER THE EDGE"


The Wipers' "Over the Edge". A great punk album that came out in 1983. These guys come off as a cross between British punk a la The Sex Pistols and early Damned, and the gloomy, depressive sounds of Joy Division. "Over the Edge" is an exceptional work that is both highly energetic and angst ridden at the same time. Kurt Cobain sighted The Wipers as a huge influence on his music. Check them out. Here's the first track from the album.
