Post-Mersh, Vol. 3 by Minutemen

Post-Mersh, Vol. 3 is a Rock album by Minutemen, originally released in 1988. On Gatefold: 3 pressings tracked.

About

The final installment of the Minutemen's compilation series <i>Post-Mersh</i> collects a number of their rare EPs, singles, B-sides, and brief lo-fi sketches, adroitly demonstrating the pioneering punk trio's fearlessness. "Afternoons" mines tension by clashing twangy guitars with jittery beats, "Black Sheep" merges a laidback groove with urgent vocal delivery, and “If Reagan Played Disco” is the kind of slinky, grooving protest song that only the Minutemen could’ve pulled off.
