Excellent compilation that restores a buncha tracks from this amazing early-80s DIY/basement psych/goofball garage band from Worcester, MA. Peace Love & Alienation bundles a bunch of tracks cut with outsider music legend Bobb Trimble behind the desk as well as live radio sessions and living room recordings. The Prefabs have an umbilical to the UK DIY sound with a riotous Swell Maps/Desperate Bicycles style filtered through an American teen garage aesthetic w/a nod to one-shot weirdos like Department Store Santas. The Trimble-produced tracks are particularly zonked, with a sound that approaches Index’s version of “Eight Miles High” overloaded with backwards bass, wacked tone generator and aggro vocals that are somewhere between The Television Personalities circa The Painted Word and The Afflicted Man. The group shared bills with Mission Of Burma and Willie Alexander back in the day, but even in that company were a real anomaly. The set comes with a 12” insert and a cool fold-out fanzine with original fliers and snaps. A revelatory reissue, highly recommended!
