v/a - the portable altamont

label: shock
released: 1991

this is your one stop shop for all of your experimental punk noise needs

perhaps you've heard of the band skullflower (and if you haven't...this is where you should start your journey)

they once had a bass player named stefan jaworzyn

he started his own record label

the record label that this compilation was released on

and everything is wrapped up in a nice big red bow

"is there anything more we should know about?"

damn nosy kids

all of the bands included on this compilation had released a 7" on the label

and all of those 7" make up this compilation

ta-da!

another big red bow

"but...is there anything else?"

dammit

each band has included an extra song not found on the original 7"

and now you have a new way to annoy your neighbors

you're welcome

so...if you like any of the bands here...you know what to do
