referencing Praxis U.S.A., 2x12", Ltd, Gre, DS 007

A great introduction to the praxis/ambush sound, with 8 exclusive tracks from the labels' heavy-hitters (and a few lesser known acts). Also, it possesses some of the most notoriously bad cover art of all time.
Track highlights include Scud's "Come With It", a particularly abrasive and energetic raggacore number, and Scud & Fringelli's "Something Violent", which is sort of a megamix of some "hits" from Scud and Fringelli's back catalogs.
Hecate's track samples Goblin's theme to the Dario Argento film "Suspiria".
