Their tenth album arrives this October.

“[It] was us trying to cut off the bullshit.”

Adam ‘MCA’ Yauch organised the first event back in 1996.

Turns out, this album title wasn’t just a nonsense phrase.

It was an NYC convention of future Boomer legends.

It worked wonderfully.

The idea was to end right back at the beginning.

They had a tad more pedigree than The Buggles in 1981.

A remix by the Pet Shop Boys took it a step further.

He’s covered it a few times himself.

A small reminder that nostalgia is a warped perception of the past.

A definitive moment from the SoCal hardcore pioneers.
