Innercity Uprising has reissued the "CIrcle Of Doom" demo tape for legendary Melbourne band Vicious Circle.

From the label...

This is a reissue, extended version of these classic early recordings from Melbourne hardcore legends Vicious Cirlce.

The songs "blood race" and "police brutality" were originally recorded early by the band and were to appear on a couple of early Melbourne punk compilations.

Vicious Circle went on to record and release records through legendary Australian hardcore punk labels, Reator Records, Au Go Go records, Waterfront and Resist Records.

A tour of the USA in the late 80s saw them play with the likes of Agnostic Front, GBH, MDC, Final Conflict, Crucifix and Attitude Adjustment.

At home they played with the likes of Depression, Utter Stench, Civil Dissident, the Hellmenn, and Peredition

Members went on to form bands such as You Am I, Rue Morge and the Cop U Laters.

Melbourne hardcore punk would not exist today if it wasn't for bands like Vicious Circle.
