"Not Since 1981 has there ever been nor will there ever be a band like The Offenders." - X Con Ron - M.D.C. BEER CITY SKATEBOARDS AND RECORDS is proud to bring you another hard hitting early 80's hardcore/punk classic from back in the day. We bring you the restored and remastered Millennium reissue of the original mix of OFFENDERS - We Must Rebel Millennium Edition LP! Back in the early 80's Texas was churning out a fair share of bands that would go on to become legends in the hardcore/punk scene and beyond. The Offenders were no exception to this phenomenon. Anytime they played you knew as soon as they hit the stage they meant business and you were in for an intense experience like no other. This hardcore/punk scorcher originally came out in 1983. It was produced/recorded by the Butthole Surfers very own Paul Leary. It's very fast, furious and intense. It contains 10 songs that would soon become classics that blew people right out of the water and had them waiting in anticipation for the next release. By what would become this legendary hardcore/punk band. Fast forward to 2022. Not only did we restore and remaster this, but we also used the original mix and put it out on 45RPM so it's louder and sounds better then it ever has before. Of coarse we didn't stop there. The cover is a bit different to and printed as the band originally intended it to be. You'll get to hear all about that and more in the extensive liner notes by none other then OFFENDERS drummer Pat Doyle. He tells you all about this and much more. So if you want to own a part of hardcore/punk history that's just as ass kicking and as relevant as it was when it first came out. Pick up this release and never forget 'Don't Mess with Texas... HARDCORE!'
