XTC's '3D' EP was originally released in 1977 and was a standout debut that hinted at the band's future brilliance. Amid the punk explosion, these three tracks stood apart with their bright melodic flair, sonic variety and infectious pop sensibility. While others shouted, XTC twisted angular riffs into earworms, showing off real songwriting chops. Released in a year of chaotic musical evolution, 3D captured both punk urgency and art-pop ambition. Now reissued on 10" eco-vinyl, this release reminds us how boldly XTC arrived on the scene with clever, energetic songs that still sound fresh, witty and full of promise nearly 50 years later.
