Album Info

Release Date: 2021

Label: Lavasocks Records

Maybe one of the most influential punk compilations in history, The Thing That Ate Floyd is a snapshot in time: The San Francisco Bay Area, California, 1988. Turn It Around may have ignited the 1990s Lookout Records scene we remember today, but The Thing That Ate Floyd captured it at its peak. From Sweet Baby’s sugary pop punk hooks, to Neurosis’s stoned chaotic sludge, to Bitch Fight’s righteous feminist fury, and everything in between, Floyd had it all.

Remastered directly from the original tapes by Ryan Perras of District Recording in San Jose. All profits go to 924 Gilman St.
