A remastered vinyl pressing of the demo tapes that proceeded the Pick your King E.P. When 17 year old punk rock kids can't express themselves and can barely write music, what do they do? They play as hard and as fast as physically possible. Blast after blast of old school punk rock. Still a big favorite with skateboarders, young and old. The beginning of what would come to be known "hardcore". LOUD!
Since forming at the dawn of the 1980s, Portland Oregons’ POISON IDEA have released a staggering amount of vinyl, toured the world many times over and been celebrated as one of the pioneering bands of the American Hardcore punk movement. The origins of their protracted campaign of mayhem can be found on Darby Crash Rides Again - The Early Years Volume 1, a collection of the band's earliest and most potent recordings. Included are the 100% previously unreleased "Boner's Kitchen" demo from 1981, the complete "Darby Crash Rides Again" demo from 1982, and The live-on-the-air set from the 1983 KBOO radio benefit. Much of this material appearing on vinyl for the first time! All the recordings have been meticulously restored for this release. Really, this LP is a complete no-brainer for POISON IDEA fans or any fan of the early days of American Hardcore Punk.
