Positraction is the fourth studio album released by New York City noise rock band Live Skull, released on March 6, 1989 by Caroline Records.[2]
Reception
Spin wrote, "It's a festering, appropriately black-colored slab of grinding, slash 'n' drone, East Village-trash-shit noisecluster rock. Junkies and depressants need mood music too."[3]
