Description:
Death were a black power trio from Detroit who released a single in 1975 and pretty much disappeared after that. Inspired by the raw Rock 'N' Roll of the Stooges and MC5, the three brothers moved away from their Funk/R&B roots into a new realm.... for the Whole World to See features the two songs from the single ('Keep on Knocking' and 'Politicians in My Eyes') and five other tracks. Drag City. 2009.
"For The Whole World To See" is the groundbreaking album by Death, released in CD format by Drag City / Indigo. Originally recorded in 1975 but not widely available until decades later, this record stands as a lost gem of proto-punk history. With raw energy and socially conscious lyrics, Death?s music prefigured the punk movement that would soon sweep across America and Europe. The band?formed by brothers David, Bobby, and Dannis Hackney in Detroit?crafted songs that were ahead of their time both musically and thematically. Their rediscovery has led to critical acclaim worldwide, with "For The Whole World To See" now regarded as an essential listen for fans of rock history. Drag City is known for its commitment to unique artists who push boundaries; since its founding in Chicago in 1990, it has become a home for innovative musicians across genres.
