Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally issued exclusively in Australia and Japan to coincide with their Pacific Rim tour, this raucous collection leans heavily on obscure punk and new wave covers. The abrasive recordings, notably featuring incredibly energetic takes on Devo and The Wipers, perfectly highlight the band's deeply rooted underground DIY aesthetics. Dropped right as 'Nevermind' was becoming a global phenomenon, the rough EP signaled their persistent allegiance to indie rock chaos.
