Some words on this issue: DEAD KENNEDYS: “Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables” (Trio Records – AW-1055) (Record: Near Mint/ Jacket: Near Mint/ Obi: Near Mint/ 2 Separate Inserts: Near Mint). Rare 1980 Japan 1st original pressing – WHITE label PROMO issue. “A hyper-speed blast of ultra-polemical, left-wing hardcore punk, and bitingly funny sarcasm, Fresh Fruit For Rotten vegetables stands as the Dead Kennedys signature statement. As one of the first hardcore albums, it was a galvanizing influence on the musical and attitudinal development of the genre, also helping to kick start the fertile California scene. The record's tactics are not subtle in the least; Jello Biafra’s odd warble and spat-out lyrics leave no doubt as to what he thinks, baiting his targets of conservatism, violence, overbearing authority, and capitalist greed with a viciously satirical sarcasm that keeps his unflinchingly political outlook from becoming too didactic. The thin production dilutes some of the music's power, but the ragged speed-blur still packs a wallop, and the hooks cribbed from surf and rockabilly give it a gonzo edge. The songwriting isn't consistent all the way through the album, but classics like "Kill the Poor," "Let's Lynch the Landlord," "Chemical Warfare," "California Über Alles," and "Holiday In Cambodia" helped define the hardcore genre and, thus, must be heard.” (All Music Guide). So great!!!! Japan 1st press with obi and promo white label…VERY RARE and almost never turns up, especially in such nice condition as this one here
