He-Man

Crossed Out.  One of the original wave of powerviolence bands to come out in the early 90's.  Crossed Out pioneered the stop/start style of PV that so many bands take influence from today.  Often mimicked, NEVER duplicated.  Top notch stuff by one of the greats.

This is a record I've wanted for a long time, and a boot just wouldn't do.  So of course when I saw an original Slap A Ham pressing pop up on eBay a few weeks back it had to be mine.  In the end I did win (obviously) so all is right in the world.  This is a first press as evidenced by the large (sometimes 15-20 seconds) gaps between songs.  The bootleg that was released doesn't have the gaps.
