Re-animator...

First released 40 years ago, Dead Kennedys’ debut album Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables is being remixed from the original multi-track tapes, with help from renowned mix engineer Chris Lord-Alge.

The first track to benefit from this treatment is Chemical Warfare (originally the last track on Side one), which was released to stream and download via Cherry Red and Manifesto yesterday on 9  October.

While the original mix was cool for 1980, the band felt it would benefit from a fuller sound at the bottom end (i.e. more powerful bass and drums). The new version does just that, taking the music from 2D to 3D.

Bassist Klaus Flouride, guitarist East Bay Ray and original drummer Ted think this new mix is excellent, adding depth without losing any of its original energy.

In contrast, Jello Biafra thinks the new mix is “terrible.” But the band’s message has always been “think for yourself”, to not let others tell you what to think. Klaus, Ray and Ted wanted to allow the fans to decide for themselves.

the original is better.  the new one is too bright on the high end, most noticeably on the cymbals.  bass loses its balls, vocals mixed back.  the original is better.

I'm surprised they haven't re-recorded the whole first album with Bixby's kid on vocals...

I mean one way to look at it is trump is a closer step to creating an anarchist nuclear wasteland than biden, so maybe he's stay true to his beliefs.

I listen to The Professionals more than the Pistols and that Professionals album from a few years ago is probably better than all of Jonesey's post-Professionals output...I guess his radio show is entertaining...

So many fun over-generalizations and over-personalizations about punk and music in the FB Flipside Mag thread I stole that from. Dave Smalley libertard "punks" preening about the real punks go against the "establishments" my manz! You and I both know punk is all about accelerationist de~evolution! So please MAGA, MAGA all you can, and MAGA until ya die!

The DK track sounds a little bit hotter than the original track. And if there’s a best thing to like about the DKs it would be the surfy guitar sound, and that’s kind of lost here a bit if I say so myself. And anyway, didn’t the definitive “remixes” of the DK catalogue already come out around the time these guys were touring without Jrllo?

Jesus christ after all this you’re going to dare bring up the Beatles? They have zero, nothing, zip, nada, negativarino, nothing nothing nothing to do with punk. Leave the Beatles out of this please
