It almost seems foolish to write a review of Executioner's "Hellbound" 45.? This PATAC Records release deserves an announcement!? "Hellbound"
was to be the debut
release from San Jose hardcore punk pioneers, Executioner: Vox- Dave Burks, Bass- Bill Fraenza, Drums- Dave Boston, Guitar- Phil Means, and more Guitar-
Charles Normal.
After the band split members went on to work w/ Frank Black of the Pixies, Pete Yorn, and Throbbing Gristle just to name a few.? What is remarkable is
that this time
bomb has remained buried for almost 25 years before it's release.? Of the eight songs two were bootlegged and got some air play from Nor Cal stations in
the early 80s,
to my knowledge the rest remained largely unheard.
