Protest (3)
Vinyl Overload

Listening notes

Protest (3) released "Vinyl Overload" on XCentric Noise Records, catalogued under the identifier Fourth 1. The release is a vinyl record containing three tracks across two sides: "Hypnotic State" on the A side, followed by "Oppressed" and "Troubles" on the B side.

The record sits within the genres of Oi, Punk, and Rock, a combination that places it within a tradition of street-level, working-class guitar music that emerged from late 1970s Britain and continued to find dedicated communities of listeners in the decades that followed. Oi in particular has long maintained a close relationship with the vinyl format, with small labels and limited pressings remaining a consistent feature of the scene's infrastructure.

XCentric Noise Records serves as the releasing label, and the catalog number Fourth 1 is the identifier assigned to this release in the Discogs database. No release year is currently documented for this record.

The tracklist is brief, with no durations listed for any of the three tracks. "Hypnotic State" occupies the full A side, while the B side is shared between "Oppressed" and "Troubles." The choice of a three-track configuration across two sides is a format common to the seven-inch and twelve-inch single traditions, though the specific format dimensions are not confirmed in the available data beyond the general notation of vinyl.
