SOUTHERN LORD TO RELEASE THE COMPLETE YDI DISCOGRAPHY THIS APRIL
RELEASE DATE: 6 APRIL
  This April, Southern Lord shall release the complete discography of Philadelphia hardcore crew YDI. This double vinyl document contains every known recording of the band, also inside is a 10”x10” full colour photo book with tons of never before seen images from the era.
  In the early 1980s, YDI (pronounced: why-die) put Philadelphia on the map with their ferocious brand of speed-obsessed hardcore. Their debut 7” EP, A Place In The Sun, released in 1983, is a nine-track blast of frantic American hardcore fury, with blistering pace and heaps of fuzz that make your speakers crackle. Come 1985, the band had altered their musical direction, and created filthy, metallic, damaged punk that constantly spirals out of control via scraping guitar-led detours – if you’ve heard Brutal Truth’s cover of the deranged ‘I Killed My Family’, you’ll recognise the unhinged sense of danger that permeates their output. The Black Dust LP was YDI’s final recording and a criminally underrated slab of disgusting mayhem.
  Those interested in hearing lesser known original punk documents (who isn’t?) that still have the capability to amaze should make a point of getting to grips with this comprehensive collection of YDI’s crucial output.
