Originally called the Impediments, the Minnesota residents changed their name
to the Replacements after being banned from a local club for disorderly behavior.
In their early days, they sounded quite similar to Hüsker Dü, the leaders of the
Minneapolis punk scene. However, the Replacements were wilder and looser
than the Hüskers and quickly became notorious for their drunken, chaotic gigs.
After they built up a sizable local following the Minneapolis label Twin/Tone signed them
