Jackpot

<p>Wipers was a recording project formed in late 1978 by Greg Sage in Portland, Oregon. Originally planned as a studio project, their goal was to release fifteen LPs over ten years while avoiding tours and interviews. They disbanded in 1989 after releasing six studio albums but later reformed in 1993 to release three more albums. Finally disbanding for good in 1999.</p>

Back In Stock

The bleak, hard-driven third LP by THE WIPERS (originally released in 1983) offers GREG SAGE at his most chased and breathless, lashing out with sharp staccato notes as if melody were his only defense. While their debut LP provided the blueprint for grunge, and their second album recast the band as one of America’s premier postpunk bands, it’s Over The Edge that best exemplifies the Wipers’ sound. The jagged, effortless guitar lines, the paranoid lyrics and raw-throated vocals and the taut, unified rhythms that define their sound bleed together most clearly on this LP, and it stands as both the best entry point for new fans and the most prevalent favorite of diehards. Vinyl version remastered from the original tapes by Greg Sage and pressed on audiophile grade vinyl and packaged in a deluxe, tip-on sleeve.
