D.R.I. (Dirty Rotten Imbeciles) - The Dirty Rotten CD: Millennium Edition

D.R.I. defined hardcore, shaped it, moulded it and made it their own, crafting a raw musical form into a focused weapon; they released a record that would rarely be bettered and never surpassed. Regarded by many as one of the best and most influential hardcore records ever committed to tape, "The Dirty Rotten" recording is finally re-issued and finally given the release it so truly deserves. This also contains the "Violent Pacification" EP, the legendary VATS recording sessions, the bands first live radio session recorded for KPFT Houston in 1982, rare, rarely heard radio interview footage, and if that wasn't enough, also includes interactive video footage from the bands first show at the home of hardcore, CBGBs, in 1983.
