Deviated Instinct - Rock n Roll Conformity

Rock n Roll Conformity was the band’s debut full length album, originally released in 1988, and demonstrated a ferocity matching any of their peers. The album was recorded at Lion Studios and produced by Peaceville founder Paul “Hammy” Halmshaw. This vinyl edition of Rock n Roll Conformity is presented with its original sleeve artwork and inlay, plus contains remastered audio.

One of the earlier and best examples of the crustcore movement which was enjoying an uprising in the late 1980’s, Norwich’s primo kings of stench-headed mayhem, Deviated Instinct, were a main force in the UK scene, starring with the classic Welcome to the Orgy EP, which was among Peaceville’s earliest releases. The band toured extensively with acts such as Napalm Death, Carcass, Bolt Thrower, Amebix among others in the years to follow before disbanding in 1994. Deviated Instinct were also notable favourites of the legendary John Peel; the band recording two sessions with him in the early nineties.
