The Rip ‎– Stormed Port [12''] (1987, Flying Nun Records)

The Rip is a notoriously (lyrically) morose and musically upbeat second wave Dunedin post-punk group with one EP, the thrashy and melodic 'A Timeless Peace' to their name. In 1987, The Rip will add another record, the 'Stormed Port' EP. More a solo Alastair Galbraith project than a group effort, the second record has classic Rip tracks such as ‘Entropic Carol’ joining the more challenging and impressionistic work that anticipates the composer’s solo years.
