2003, Swami
THE TESTORS were formed by Sonny Vincent in New York City 1975 at the heart of what became punk rock as we know it today. They were loud, raw as fuck, and didn't give a shit about anybody but themselves. While contemporaries the RAMONES, BLONDIE, and the HEARTBREAKERS were making history, THE TESTORS were lighting clubs on fire, going to jail, and Sonny eventually was admitted to a psychiatric hospital. Along the way they were regulars at CBGBs, Max's Kansas City and shared the stage with the likes of SUICIDE, THE CRAMPS, and the DEAD BOYS. With only one legitimate release spanning their career (a highly sought-after 7"), the band continued to turn their noses at major label offers. Today, Swami is proud to unearth The Testors Complete Recordings 1976-1979, consisting of 37 songs and 10 never-before-heard tracks.
