NORMIL HAWAIIANS - Return of the Ranters LP edm And Zig Zags had aGatefold sleeve. Includes booklet. Highly recommended. Recorded in 1985, Normil Hawaiians third album Return Of The Ranters is quite an album. On the one hand it is a set of relatively conventional mid 80s post punk political songs. But on the other hand, strange details and structures are packed in everywhere: strange violin loops, unidentified tones, and unrestrained improvisation.
