Description
Demo recordings by a post-punk band from Ashmont Springs, made in a rented studio.

Deposited by Archive of Western Ranges Broadcasting, which had held it unread for years. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. The image matches a checksum published by the original distributor.
