THE EX – too many cowboys (LP Vinyl)

Originally released in 1987, this reissue comes completely like the original release and includes newspaper & poster/lyrics-sheet. "These fervent Dutch activists are seeking to hijack the trad rock format and fly it to their very own Cuba." "The Ex create music that's abrasive, driving and challenging, much of it recorded live, shards of guitar, bass and drums coalescing like jagged pieces of a puzzle, pumped up by influences that introduce the post-punk jar of Gang of Four, The Fall and Sonic Youth, and the spirit and experimentation of Crass, albeit more accessible. Intelligent, intriguing and well-executed." Terrie (guitar), G.W. Sok (vocals), John (vocals), Luc (bass), Katrin (drums). Recorded by Dolf (between October 16 and 26, 1986), in 't Paard - Den Haag, Vrije Vloer - Utrecht, Debarak - Zutphen, De Ark - Anna Paulowna, and Emma's Koeienverhuurbedrijf - Amsterdam, Netherlands. Produced by Dolf Planteijdt. * Ex Records
