VIA PRESS RELEASE | Stop the presses because this is one whale of a story.
…Rocks Your Lame Ass is one of the lost gems of the ’90s and a record that has NEVER seen a vinyl pressing. Originating from Dallas, Texas, Hagfish is the perfect blend of punk and power-pop. …Rocks Your Lame Ass was a defining moment for the band. Produced by Descendents members Bill Stevenson and Stephen Egerton and originally released on London Records, it packs a Ramones-style wallop and birthed MTV music videos for the songs “Stamp” and “Happiness.” The band was voted Dallas’ best Alternative Rock/Pop act in 1996.
With blazing guitars courtesy of Zach Blair (Rise Against) and the nasal vocal delivery of George Reagan, …Rocks Your Lame Ass sizzles with two-minute punk and power-pop stylings that stick like glue. Porterhouse will create a 500-copy limited pressing for the LP on opaque orange vinyl, and the package will include liner notes with never-before-seen photos.
Pre-sales for a July 1st release are on, and they will go fast. Hagfish will support the release with live shows in the future.
