The Frumpies - Frumpie One Piece
The Frumpies formed in 1992 during the same summer that birthed the first Riot Grrrl zines and meetings. Made up of 3/4 of Bikini Kill (Tobi Vail, Kathi Wilcox, Billy Karren), plus 1/3 of Bratmobile (Molly Neuman) - and later joined briefly by Michelle Mae (Make-Up, Weird War) - the band were conceived of as a singles project, releasing a string of amazing lo-fi punk EPs between 1993 and 2000 on Chainsaw, Lookout, Wiiija and Kill Rock Stars.
The original Frumpie One Piece compilation, released on CD only in 1998 by Kill Rock Stars, was a collection of all the tracks from the first five 7"s. A sixth EP, Frumpies Forever was released in 2000, and is included in this very limited vinyl version as a bonus 7".
All the Frumpies releases, including the original Frumpie One Piece CD have long been out of print, and this special Record Store Day release is the only time this compilation will see a re-release.
Frumpie One Piece is an absolutely essential record - every song will be your favourite song! We cannot recommend this enough!!!!
