Soviet Invasion! is a 12" EP and the second release by the English heavy metal band Witchfinder General. Released in 1982 via Heavy Metal Records, it would be a 45RPM 12" released in an unknown limited amount. Track B2 is not a real live recording. It's 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.
R.I.P. would be re-recorded for the band's debut album Death Penalty. The entire EP would appear on the archival compilation Buried Amongst The Ruins.
