Forty-two years on, Circle X’s Prehistory returns to vinyl — a vital document of post-punk at its most uncompromising.
Formed in Louisville in 1978 and later based in New York, the band operated between 1978 and 1995, orbiting the No Wave scene around CBGB and sharing stages with acts like DNA. Across a handful of fiercely experimental releases, Circle X fused feral energy with conceptual art instincts. Prehistory captures that restless spirit — rhythmically driven, defiantly outside convention, and still startlingly ahead of its time.
