Legendary Pacific Northwest punk group Wipers will see their seminal Youth of America turn 40 this year. To celebrate, they're releasing an expanded reissue of the album as part of 2021's Record Store Day.
The expanded reissue will be a double-LP set, limited to 3,000 copies with a deluxe gatefold jacket, coloured vinyl and a reproduction of the album's original rejected artwork.
In addition to the original album, the second record will include alternate mixes. It will also include the rarities "My Vengeance" and "The Story" (both of which were previously only available on the Tramp Sampler compilation), as well as the album outtake "Scared Stiff." You can hear all three of those tracks now below.
The reissue of Youth of America will be available on June 12 via Jackpot Records.
