Well Mr. Jack Crawford, this one's for you. Hanging out in Belize I had many great in depth conversations with this invigorating young man. So here's that lo-fi garagey emotional punkish 7" from 1988 that pushed to eventually get a 'What They Lack' tattoo (pictures of the ink below the download). It might not be what these current ears wanna hear but in the 1990's this stuff really affected me in a positive way.
This is the best quality I could get and I'm pretty sure it's as close to a master as possible. Moss Icon (along with The Hated) are two of the most influential bands that never got their stuff properly re-released which is a shame not only because of the monetary gain they deserve to have (but never could back in the day due to poor distribution deals) but moreso because of the great music that is getting lost in the folds of time.
Enjoy this forgotton classic :)
