V2 formed in March 1977 evolving from the early Manchester punk scene based around the legendary Electric Circus venue. Of the four Manchester punk bands around at the time - The Fall, Buzzcocks, V2 and Warsaw - V2 were the ones who fell to earth: 'as subtle as flying buzz-bombs' and destined for the same early grave. This LP compiles both of their classic singles 'Man In The Box' and 'Speed Freak', their withdrawn third single `Is Anyone Out There?' and various studio recordings that never saw the light of day, packed in a full colour cover with insert detailing the band's history.
