Vicious Circle

about this album

Vicious Circle is the debut studio album by Indiana hardcore band Zero Boys, released in 1981. In May 1981, original bassist John Mitchell left the group and was replaced by David "Tufty" Clough. Through local shows at the "Crazy Al's" venue in Indianapolis and band manager Marvin Goldstein, the band had enough funds to record a studio album. The band entered Keystone Recording in Indianapolis in August 1981 and registered for 3 day sessions on the 16th, 17th, and 18th respectively. The group laid down 17 tracks during this 3-day period, including the base 14 tracks released on the record, 2 session outtakes "Slam And Worm" and "She Said Goodbye" as well as a outtake cover of "Toys In The Attic" by Aerosmith. After finalization in the mixdown process, Vicious Circle was released in November 1981 under the band's Nimrod imprint. The following press coverage in local fanzines and record sales helped the band embark on their summer 1982 "Hell Tour".
