Description: | Legendary punk trio the Dils formed in San Diego in southern California and when they moved to San Francisco, bassist Tony Kinman found himself living with the Avengers, but once they hit Los Angeles in 1977 they began recording frantic singles for fledgling independents such as What? Records, Dangerhouse and Rogelleti for more melodic, country-influenced songs, pointing to their further reincarnation as Rank & File. Ace compilation Dils Dils Dils gathers early studio work and live recordings, this edition featuring two bonus tracks, recorded in LA in 1979. Crucial listening for all Dils fans! - YELLOW VINYLThe Dils are one of the most legendary punk bands of all-time. Fronted by brothers Chip and Tony Kinman, the group was as important to the U.S. scene as The Clash and Sex Pistols were to England. Though they only recorded three singles, their potent political punk tunes such as "I Hate The Rich", "Class War", and "Red Rockers" still leave a mark some 25 years later. Their seminal 1977 debut 7" "I Hate The Rich" (included on the Bacchus Archives Class War compilation alongside a scorching live set from 1980) was recently named by Mojo magazine as one of the 100 best punk shockers of all-time. Their other studio cuts and ten more roaring live recordings from 1977-1981 are included here on Dils, Dils, Dils.Limited Edition of 500 copies.
