DESCRIPTION

The astounding debut album that established the Subhumans as a genuine force to be reckoned with, The Day The Country Died captured both the band’s serious anarcho-punk ideology and their irreverent sense of humor. It was apparent from the off that here was a band that could not only stimulate your brain but also put a big shit-eating grin on your face as you jumped about to them. And the now-iconic artwork by Nick Lant – probably his most recognizable piece of work for the band - has adorned countless thousands of jackets and T-shirts since.

Recorded over just four days during the heady summer of 1982, and released six months later in January 1983, when it quickly climbed to No. 3 in the UK’s then-important Independent Charts, this exhilarating collection of songs has endured for four decades, the band still regularly kicking their live set off with the opening track, "All Gone Dead".
