Repressed reissue, classic black vinyl, gatefold, 500 copies ww. Originally released back in 1985, also this reissue has been out of ptint since long. Remastered in 2014, with added photography, lyrics, and 2 bonus tracks, one the cover of Hendrix’ “Fire” Magnum opus in his solo career, Jeffrey Lee Pierce, leader of THE GUN CLUB recorded this wonder during the mid 80s. This record meant for Jeffrey Lee Pierce a hiatus during The Gun Club life, and in reality it sounds purely like another Gun Club album! Complex compositions performed with excellence that, once again, put Jeffrey Lee Pierce as one of the most important and influential artists of the 80s & 90s. Originally released in The U.K. & Europe in 1985, it’s been eight years that have been slowly building and adding to the legacy of JEFFREY LEE PIERCE and his infamous band, THE GUN CLUB. PIERCE’s lyrics show his awareness of America’s earliest history, a nation established at the barrel of a gun. The violence theme practically drips from the album cover, depicting PIERCE with a dreamy look and a shotgun slung over his shoulder. Furthermore PIERCE’s world is one in which love takes a wrong turn most of the time. Obsessed with an inevitable apocalyptic destiny, he took his lowlife background as an explanation for a feverish longing for decay. Sex, booze and drugs all claimed their share in a self-destructive lifestyle, culminating in an early death at the age of 37. “Wildweed” was the first of two solo albums PIERCE made in between his GUN CLUB albums. Following in the footsteps of remarkable statements like “Miami” and “The Las Vegas Story,” the material presented here isn’t all that different, equally strong.
