No, not the first incarnation of Kiss, just three wasted kids from Cleveland, Ohio, infatuated with the new wave of british heavy metal.

Kick-started in Cleveland in 1979, girls, drugs, sports, and jock rivalry fueled Wicked Lester's aggressive "fuck the draft" sound.

Minted at Boddie in 1981, Wicked Lester's lone single paired "Here Comes My Girlfriend" with the lovesick, late-Pink Floyd moves of "Say Your Prayers," recorded on the same ominous day that John Hinckley Jr.

shot President Ronald Reagan. We've added two unreleased tracks, thrown all four sides into a beautiful gatefold 7" sleeve, and added a couple thousand words about their near-meaningless existence.
