Love how No Fun is clearly patterned after the Pistols version.

This is incredible-and not simply as a historical document, either. These are legitimately great songs with a lot of energy and heart. Dischord should release this on vinyl posthaste!

[@Andranik05]

Done.

@@Andranik05 ahahahahha

[@GeeEm1313]

They technically have, with Dischord 200, the 6x7 box set.

[@TurnerRecordsTRS]

Glad you said “not just as a historical document” which at least acknowledges the historical-ness to this release. So cool to hear this and not have to buy the Dischord box set for way too much from flippers (forgot to buy it retail when I had the chance!!!!!)

"Adventure" is so good

[@Alostos]

Very raw and I love it!
