"After 20 years this LP is now FINALLY availible in it's entirity! (Most of it was on the "Bloodied" comp but different mixes.) Sounds like the Clash's first LP played at 78! It was 19 years ago when Government Issue vocalst recomended this album to me. He was RIGHT! It's one of the GREATEST early 80s hardcore albums ever along with the Germs' "(GI)", Dead Kennedy's "Fresh Fruit", GG Allin's "Always Was", Bad Religion's "How Can Hell Be Any Worse" & Bad Brains' "Rock For Light" (LP version)."

Awesome!!!

"One of the best punk albums to date!! I can't believe this has finally been reissued. 100% pure punk rock, no gimmicks and no cheesey love songs like those so-called "punk" bands today. The best and most important band ever from Canada and maybe North America!!! Kids if you are just getting into punk and Hardcore this is a MUST!!!!!"

Yes, it's here!

"When I saw them play at Mabuhay Gardens in San Francisco in 1981 I knew this was a great punk band. I saw them again in Denver years later in a crappy little place, and they were still fantastic. In my mind, this tops the Sex Pistols and equals The Clash. I have the original vinyl, now you can get the original CD. We got to talk to these guys, they were just average joes who deeply understood the suffering created by obsolete governmental systems. They were angry, yes, but I didn't find a sadistic, ultraviolent kind of anger that you find with a lot of American punk bands. They just played, expressed their truth, and didn't seem to get caught up in it. Get it, you'll find D.O.A. to be one of the best bands of the late 70's/early 80's anti-system movement."
