• Track Listing

Limited vinyl LP reissue of the long-lost second album from the Texas punk legends including digital download. Really Red was the backbone of Houston's underground from the early punk era clear through '80s hardcore. Like the Dicks in Austin, they directly challenged an insanely violent police department at no small risk to their own lives. Their sound itself incorporated art and post-punk elements, with a musical and lyrical depth on par with bands like Mission of Burma, Wire, or Dead Kennedys. VOLUME 2: REST IN PAIN is the long-lost second album that hardly any Really Red fans back then knew existed! Unavailable for almost 30 years, now all tracks are restored for the first time ever, with vastly improved sound-fiercer and heavier, but still vintage Really Red. Side two shows the band's roots with an awesome Texas psycho cover of the Red Crayola's "War Sucks." These guys actually saw the 13th Floor Elevators live! REST IN PAIN was remastered at Fantasy by Jello Biafra.
