[SORRY THERE IS NO OVERSEAS OFFERS EXCEPTED, U.S. ONLY...]
The back story to this collectors item is way back when out of high school I worked at Wall to Wall Sound and Video for a while and then Sound Odyssey record stores. This was back East and I spent most of my pay checks buying inventory. Later when CBS Records in Pitman, New Jersey sold out to Sony I worked at that Compact Disc Plant and Vinyl began to die as did most of the record stores [Vinyl]. Then Virgin Mega-Stores began to dot the landscape and we all discovered that CDs did not possess the depth and sound quality of Vinyl.
[The price Sticker says Import "K" [$7.99]~ Why it was labeled an Import I can't remember but it might be because on the back cover, lower right hand corner it says "Jacket made in Canada." This record has never been played and it also contains the poster which is the reason the record was opened in the first place. For some reason many posters 'disappeared' from many of the albums back when. The Poster is perfect and the album is still in it's original shrink wrap.]

Early on, the Necros played with many prominent punk bands, including Black Flag, Bad Brains, Sonic Youth, Minor Threat, and Teco Vee's group The Meatmen. The Necros also toured as openers for horror punk band the Misfits, including at the Misfits' last show in which Todd Swalla stepped in to play drums when Brian Damage became too drunk to perform. Wendler rejoined on guitar in late 1982 and in 1983 the band recorded and released two more records, a 7" and LP both titled Conquest For Death.
In 1983 Corey Rusk quit the group to concentrate on Touch and Go, after assuming full control of the label and bassist Ron Sakowski stepped in. Despite the group's steady output at their onset, the Necros did not release another record for two years. In an interview with One Solution zine, vocalist Barry Henssler blamed the delay between releases on Rusk's refusal to give the band a definite answer as to whether or not they were still on Touch and Go. The label has since deleted their Necros releases from their catalog.
