Legendary California punk label Revelation Records recently celebrated their 200th release with this remastered repress of the forever elusive proto-debut album from New York City based hardcore legends Judge, formed by Youth Of Today guitarist John "Porcell" Porcelly and former drummer Mike "Judge" Ferraro. Aptly titled Chung King Can Suck It in staunch rebuke to the recording studio where the band would track the initial sessions for their 1989 LP, only to be provided with the lowest quality tech room within the facility and left at the whims of a mostly absentee cokehead for engineer (a point made all the more ludicrous when considering the member's near-militant straight edge ethos), upon hearing the final mixdowns, a unanimous agreement was reached to begin all over again at a more suitable location. As the original masters had already been sent to the pressing plant before cancellation, 110 copies were produced before they could "stop the presses", with the band eventually re-recording and releasing what is now the highly revered classic Bringin' It Down, while the Chung King recordings would become a much sought-after fan collectible, so much so that a copy sold on Discogs in 2015 for an absurd $6,048, ranking as the most expensive item sold on the site up to that point. Previously only widely available as part of the What It Meant CD-only compilation, this surprise reissue marks the first time these OG recordings have ever been made affordable on wax, while the newly written/recorded Bringin' It Down closer 'Where It Went' has been omitted with the recordings of the original final two cuts 'Holding On' and 'No Apologies' lovingly restored.
