Released back in August 1990, Sub Pop 70 was this 7" by a band called The Derelicts. It's a relatively early record in the label's catalogue, although I had never actually heard of this one until a few weeks ago. It was an easy and cheap buy from within the UK.
Apparently the band was a Seattle punk outfit active 1987-1991. I'm assuming that they influenced a fair few bands of the era. The two songs on here are over in about 4 minutes, and they remind me of both The Dwarves and Supersuckers. It's pretty good but it's also very short, and in some ways a good reminder of how 7"s were so cheap and useful as a way of checking out new bands back in the day.
