A.K.O.B. "Another Kind of Blues" ep

A.K.O.B. were a hardcare band from Vancouver. The band was made up of former members of the House of Commons. As might be assumed by the name of the band they were influenced by the UK Subs. This 6 song 12" was released by Undergrowth Records which was responsible for other 12" like Death Sentence, NoMeansNo, Snakefinger and a comp called Undergrowth '85. The label was run by Laurie Mercer who was the manager of NoMeansNo. I found out a bunch of material about the label at a blog called O'Canadarm.
