Soviet Invasion! is the second release from British doom metal band Witchfinder General. It was released in 1982[1] on Heavy Metal Records. The EP was released on 12" vinyl. In 2004, it was reissued on 12" vinyl with "Soviet Invasion!" and "Rabies" on the A-side and the "Burning a Sinner" single on the b-side ("Burning a Sinner" and "Satan's Children"). In 2007, it was released on CD for the first time on the compilation Buried Amongst the Ruins. The song was written by the Phillip Cope & Zeeb Parkes Partnership before the Berlin Wall came down and the end of the Cold War. The so-called 'live' track on the single, "Rabies," was not actually a live recording at all; it was in fact a studio production with crowd effects over-dubbed. The fake live recording was done at the request of Paul Birch Head of Heavy Metal Records.
