Nineteen Eighty Eight

Pennywise have been carrying the punk rock torch since 1988, but for many the first exposure to the band was their 1991 self-titled debut disc for Epitaph Records. However, longtime fans will get a chance to dig even deeper into their history with the release of the Nineteen Eighty Eight LP. The band and Theologian Records are teaming up with Hardline Entertainment to reissue their earliest recordings on a single platter. You’ll find music from the A Word From the Wise and Wildcard EPs, as well as tracks from the Soul Arch compilation that included the group’s covers of Black Flag‘s “Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie” and Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me.” The Nineteen Eighty Eight LP will be released on colored vinyl with blue and green opaque options, as well as a very limited edition 180 gram blue and white swirl that will be numbered and signed by the band.
