Belgian punk innovators Raxola formed in 1977, the name deonting Revolution Axis Opens Lights Ahead, one of only three Belgian punk acts to record an album in the early days. Guitarist/vocalist Yves Kengen, alias Yke, launched the trio with bassist Louis Bubeau and drummer Guy Van Snick, overlapping with the time that Kengen played bvass in Bastard with Brian James, who returned to the UK to join London SS and ultimately, The Damned. Raxola's self-titled debut is a furious, melodic, and intelligent blast of first-wave Euro-punk, a long sought-after classic whose originals go for silly money, now fully ripe for rediscovery.
