Cult favourite pop-punk trio the Ergs! have announced a 20th anniversary reissue of their landmark 2004 debut album dorkrockcorkrod.
To be released July 5 via Don Giovanni Records, the 2LP reissue on splatter blue and yellow vinyl includes new artwork, unreleased photos and an exhaustive oral history of the band by Mike Faloon. It's available for pre-order here.
