Clean (Severed Heads album)
Clean is the second full-length studio album by the experimental Australian group Severed Heads, released in 1981 through Dogfood Productions and Terse Tapes, two labels that the band themselves operated. Originally released on vinyl and cassette formats, both of which contained unique artwork and were released in small quantities, the vinyl in particular only being released as an edition of 400. In 2020, the album was reissued as a double vinyl with extra material featuring 13 songs, 5 of which have never been released before, culled from live performances, and remastered.
