LIMITED EDITION PURPLE VINYL RE-ISSUE
Release Date: 30th May 2025
"The Slits’ Live at the Gibus Club is pure, unfiltered chaos. Recorded in Paris on 26 January l978, it captures the band at their wildest - raw, untamed, and ready to explode. Just l4 years old, Ari-Up howls through “So Tough,” “Love and Romance,” and “Shoplifting” like she’s starting a riot. Palmolive (drums), Viv Albertine (guitar), and Tessa Pollitt (bass) slash and pound through a jagged, off-the-rails set that feels like it could collapse at any moment. The crowd is tense, the banter is sharp, and the energy is electric. This isn’t just a live album—it’s a time capsule of pure punk fury. Essential."
