BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1989

“The Good Samaritan” is the only single released by British band Counterfeit. With heavy synths and moody vocals, the track is very reminiscent of Depeche Mode and Camouflage. The single along with some demos were recorded at a converted greenhouse in Dagenham in the fall of 1989. Sadly the band never recorded a full album or any further singles.
