After some trials and tribulations we finally have gorgeous black vinyl slabs to drop into Dils "Live" jackets! An issue with the initial pressing forced us to re-press this product. We have taken receipt of the replacement pressing, proofed it and deemed it "fit to ship."

We want to thank all of our customers who waited patiently while we got this taken care of. Order with confidence and enjoy the expanded and improved 24 song collection.

We've gone down the west-coast punk rock rabbit hole once again and have returned with a long out of print gem, the Dils "Live!" The LP last saw the light of day in 1987 when originally released by Triple X Records. We've acquired the original analog master tapes of the record and have pressed a limited run of 500 pieces. The LP features Dils classics like "Class War," I Hate the Rich" and "Sound of the Rain."

But there's more great news… in order to put this release over the top we're including a Compact Disc in the package that features the never before released "Dils Live At Mabuhay Gardens". The set was captured on March 20, 1978 when the band appeared at the San Francisco venue on the New Wave Against Black Lung Benefit alongside Avengers and the Nuns. The package includes completely revamped artwork including a printed insert with photos and words from days gone by as well as a download code for the entire audio package.

We are also offering a Kinman Bundle with this release. You can obtain "This American Blues" the final collaboration between Chip and Tony Kinman on 12" clear blue vinyl along with Dils "Live" for a tasty discount. Be sure to check it out in the webstore when you order here.

That’s right, we've got a brand new exclusive for the holidays kids! Germs 2 x LP (MIA) The Complete Anthology on blue vinyl splattered with black and it’s available to order here right now!

This unique design will never be repeated and is limited to 1000 copies pressed. Once they're gone they're all gone. Completely re-mastered from the original master recordings, CultMTL raves "all of the Germs recorded output is stretched out over two LPs and sounds completely gorgeous."

You can play Punk-Santa this year because this limited pressing won't be in retail stores over the holidays, the only place you can purchase it is here at our webstore!

Personality Crisis of Winnipeg left us but one full-length LP and it has certainly stood the test of time. Now regarded as a Canadian punk rock classic, the record was initially released via San Francisco based Risky Records in 1983.

There have been a couple of sporadic "re-issues" created over the years but Porterhouse is doing one better. 'Creatures for Awhile' will become part of the Porterhouse catalog and kept in print full-time. We're starting things off with a craft batch of 250 pieces pressed on audiophile black vinyl, with all original artwork. Pre-orders are open and you can snag one right here.

The album will also be made available digitally worldwide. That means adding the record to your punk rock streaming playlists for the very first time! Porterhouse will be doing new vinyl variants in the future and we're planning something special for the record's 40th Anniversary in 2023 as well. A warm Porterhouse welcome to PC!

We have a new variant of 'Saturation' and it's our best yet. Set on clear yellow regular weight vinyl this go around features a new 3 color label design.

Additionally, this pressing was performed by M.P.O. in France. These records sound crystal clear with no surface noise.

The new pressing is in stock now so please jump over to our webstore here and order a copy now!

Critics have responded to the debut LP "Summer Bliss and Autumn Tears" from Steven Bradley with open arms and music scribes have consistantly cited Elvis Costello and Nick Lowe when measuring Bradley's strength as a songwriter.

Tom Sevrin of Ripple Effect says "Timeless in their execution, sublime in their production. These songs are so full of melodic hooks, that you can't help but get them stuck in your mid-brain."

Baby Sue made the record their Top Pick and said that "Bradley immediately lays the groundwork for what is bound to be a solid and captivating career in the world of cool and truly inspired guitar pop."

The album has receieved a 9/10 nod from Music Connection, Hits Daily Double called it "a blast of power-pop reminiscent of Big Star" and Ox Magazine called it "a nearly perfect album."

If all that good news wasn't exciting enough, a third video from the album just arrived for its title track. Premiere music publication New Noise Magazine is curating its Worldwide debut and you can see it now on the Porterhouse Video page here!.

Seminal Vancouver punk rock band the Young Canadians recorded three studio EPs between 1979 and 1981. "Automan, "This is Your Life" and "Hawaii" are all considered classics of their time.

Thanks to everyone who purchased a copy of the initial pressing of Germs ‘(M.I.A.) The Complete Anthology.’ Response has been great and it’s been very uplifting to hear folks talking about how much they love this collection.

Hot off the presses we are now offering a reveresed Blue and Black variant of the double LP set. That is to say, the Opaque Blue disc is now the first of the two or the ‘GI’ album and the Black has become the ‘What We Do Is Secret’ LP.

This top shelf pressing originates from Record Technology Inc. in Camarillo, the finest plant in North America. These discs sound clean, clear and loud. Jump over to the MIA store page right here and snap one up before they're gone!

Here’s real time footage of (MIA) The Complete Anthology being cut to lacquer by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound in Nashville. Ryan describes the cut as sounding “excellent” and he should know as he cuts for the very best.

Art begins his latest battle cry in the year 1968 and invites Democratic Convention performer Wayne Kramer of the MC5 aboard to nail the point home. It’s cross border collaboration between two guys who know how to stick it to the man!

In the spirit of cooperation between the two countries, Oct 27th sees a tandem video launch via the renowned music publications Exclaim! in Canada and New Noise Magazine in the United States. Director Thor Henrikson created the masterpiece in a mad dash before election day.

“Christo Fascists” is the first single from Art’s forthcoming album ‘Late Stage Empire Dementia’ which will see release in early 2021. Producer Russell Broom (Jann Arden, Chixdiggit) delivers a track that meets the message. The message has arrived and you can get it right here!

Patience is a virtue and our customers have it in spades. Thanks to everyone for hanging in there through the production delays, we never been happier to ship a record!

We also wanted to say thank you to everyone who has posted photos of their LP sets and shared their raves about how good these records sound.

The mastering work of ace cutter Ryan Smith of Sterling Sound in Nashville raises the bar on this collection, and the expert plating team at RTI in Camarillo made sure we were pressing from the best possible source in the country. What a team!

We're working up more classic punk rock releases now so check back with us soon!

Hello Germs fans far and wide! We wanted to bring you up to date on the pressing and delivery of “(MIA) The Complete Anthology.”

First off we want to thank each and everyone who has Pre-Ordered a copy of Germs the “(MIA) The Compete Anthology” vinyl debut. We are committed to delivering you the very finest product possible.

This year has been one of the most challenging ever. We began the year faced with the closing of our long time pressing plant and as if that wasn’t enough when we moved to place the Germs into production we were confronted with the Apollo Masters fire in Barstow Ca. This fire destroyed the very lacquers that this project was destined to be cut on.

Once lacquers were manufactured and shipped from Japan we expected to begin production immediately. However, stay-at-home orders forced the closure of our current plating and pressing partners. Because freshly cut lacquers begin to deteriorate as soon as they are carved, they must be plated immediately. But as we had no open plant to plate them at, the Re-Mastering and lacquer cutting process had to be shelved.

With plating and pressing facilities now open and Re-Mastering completed by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound, we have finally received Test Pressings for “(MIA) The Complete Anthology.” The tests sound fantastic! Clear, powerful and open… exactly what we would expect using R.T.I. who are widely acknowledged as one of the best plating facilities in the country.

Porterhouse Records approved these test pressings today and we are in the queue to be pressed. But the complications everyone in the chain has faced have rendered what should have been a late July release simply impossible to pull off.

Now the bad news. Because plants have been closed for months we are faced with a backlog on the presses. We have been informed today that the current wait time is 10 weeks. With that in mind we are revising our delivery date for Pre-Orders. The delivery date is now set for on or about Oct. 9.

In fact we believe that we will be able to deliver records slightly before that date but we want to be cautious. We are sorry that this process has become so drawn out and we apologize to our customers who we understand… “WANT THIS RECORD NOW!” We hear you and we are grateful for your patience.

Please hang in there with us as we see this one through and know that we will deliver the best looking and sounding product in the Porterhouse Records tradition. Thank you for your your support and understanding, it’s greatly appreciated!

We're taking you back to the good old days but with a cool twist. In a Worldwide debut The Germs (MIA) The Complete Anthology hits vinyl for the VERY FIRST TIME!

Porterhouse will deliver an rejuvenated MIA that's completely re-mastered and re-sequenced for vinyl. The album GI will appear as one 12" LP and the other LP will see the complete original sequence of the "What We Do Is Secret" EP, including the Live version of "The Other Newest One" and previously deleted live dialogue from lead singer Darby Crash. You'll now be able to experience the EP as it was actually intended to be heard. HUGE!

Additionally, songs recovered from the "Cruising" Motion Picture Soundtrack and the band's early 7"s will complete the flip-side of the second LP in the anthology.

The initial pressing of "The Complete Anthology" will consist of a two LP set featuring black and blue vinyl with reverse labels. The package will also include the original liner notes.

Production of MIA has been delayed due to Covid-19 related plant closures forced by stay-at-home orders. However, we are elated to report that production has finally begun. Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound is currently re-mastering and cutting lacquers for this epic release and we'll be heading to plating shortly!

It is with deep sadness we share the news of the passing of Tony Kinman. The Dils and Rank and File founder and Alt-Country inventor passed quietly at home surrounded by family after a short bout with panreatic cancer. Tributes have poured in from around the world for a great man who has left us far too soon. May he forever rest in peace and in song.

Dils and Rank & File founder Chip Kinman is doing his part to heal a country tattered by election year media chaos with the release of the Wilbert Harrison song "Let's Work Together." The tune has also been covered by Canned Heat and Brian Ferry and it brings a positive message of unity to all!
