• Vs. is the only full-length studio album released by Mission of Burma before their initial breakup in 1983, yet it remains one of the most influential post-punk records of all time. Released in 1982, the album takes the raw punk energy of their Signals, Calls, and Marches (1981) EP and expands it into something even more aggressive, dissonant, and complex.
