Vietnam/Heaven is a compilation album by the band Shockabilly, one of the many projects of influential and prolific guitarist Eugene Chadbourne.[2] The album is a combination of two previously unavailable LPs, and was extremely well received by critics. Notably, these recordings feature many sonic techniques that were later duplicated by bands such as Primus and Sonic Youth.[1]
