House of Commons "Patriot" 12"

This was the first House of Commons recording. It came out on Common Records in 1983. The 12" was released by tim Yohannon as "House of Commons play a mixture of punk and thrash, and have great lyrics to boot. The echoey, gruff vocals, atypical guitar work, solid rhythm section, and powerful production make for a fine debut." in MRR #11, January / February 1984. You can download the 12" through the Making Time for Thoughtcrime blog. Artcore just re-issued these songs on a CD with other House of Commons recordings.

The songs on here are:

1. Way Down South
2. Low
3. Gotta B. Alive
4. 1999
5. American Patriot
6. Institution
7. Live For Today
