Description

WHERE THIS RECORD CAME FROM
Our record shop, Trash American Style, opened the same day that 7 Seconds played their pivotal concert at the Anthrax.  November 29, 1986.  After that show, it seems every kid in Connecticut decided to form a hardcore band.
  We were there while that entire scene was born. Since our very first day, we have specialized in selling the best hardcore records of the time. You name it, it probably passed through our store at one time or another.  We’ve catered to many serious record collectors over the years and just recently, we purchased a large collection that belonged to one of our customers. This fellow started buying hardcore records from Trash in the early 1990’s and stopped buying them in the early 2000’s. His collection also included many awesome pressings of records that were purchased directly from bands while on tour, they're quite limited and rare due to the "tour only" distribution methods used. 

Hundreds of records to list, here goes........... Strike while the FRN is still hot!


Gorilla Biscuits s/t 7"
Revelation Records Rev: 4
released 1988
1st press, black vinyl, 1,994 were made

Letters on the front sleeve are blue.  Different lyric sheet and labels from all subsequent pressings.  After this first pressing, the master tape was lost so the EP had to be remixed for the subsequent pressings.  The mixes on this first pressing have never been reissued anywhere. 

What about the vinyl?   It’s NEAR MINT.   It would be totally mint but for a couple of light surface scuffs on side 2.  Otherwise, it’s perfect.   BTW, these will NOT affect the way this record plays, seen but not heard!!
Foldout double sided lyrics, photo/poster sheet is clean and fresh.  Looks like it was rarely, if ever, opened.  Same for the Revelation G.I. Joe / Batman etc. "will trade for" sheet that’s included.  Both are very close to mint condition. (2nd Picture)
The cover is in quite near mint condition.   I’d like to say mint, but it’s not quite.   It’s got just a bit of handling on it, enough to prevent it from being fully mint.

As far as I’m concerned, Gorilla Biscuits were the best of the Class of ‘87 NYHC bands and this record is one of the best records from that class.   Here’s your chance to own a 100% original first pressing of a straight edge classic!

track listing: High Hopes/ No Reason Why/ Big Mouth/ GM2
