Long overdue reissue of 1996's Show World by the undisputed kings of the underground, power pop, "over the counter" culture, REDD KROSS. First-ever US vinyl edition.

Brothers Jeff and Steve McDonald formed Redd Kross (originally Red Cross) in Hawthorne, CA in the late '70s. Rumor has it that the band name was inspired by a prop from the 1973 horror film, The Exorcist. Their first show was opening for Black Flag and they released their debut record, the mythical "Posh Boy" EP in 1980 when they were just 17 and 13 respectively. The "Posh Boy" EP features Black Flag's 2nd singer, Ron Reyes, on drums and founding member of Circle Jerks, Greg Heston, on guitar. 1982 saw a line up change and the release of Born Innocent, a high water mark of American Punk Rock. Containing nods to Jim and Tammy Faye Baker, Linda Blair, Lita Ford, and breakfast cereal as well as a killer cover of Charlie Manson's Cease To Exist. Redd Kross loves pop culture.
