by Dead Kennedys

Released shortly after the band's bitter dissolution amid an obscenity trial, this posthumous compilation gathers Dead Kennedys' essential non-album singles, B-sides, and compilation tracks. Jello Biafra's venomous, highly satirical socio-political commentary is matched by East Bay Ray's distinctive, surf-inflected punk guitar work. Featuring legendary anthems like 'Holiday in Cambodia' and 'California Über Alles', it stands as a definitive document of the West Coast hardcore scene.
