Bum Kon (named after Korean mass murderer Woo Bum Kon) was one of the best hardcore bands in the early '80s, even if few outside of Denver knew it. Loud as hell and fast as fuck, Larry Denning, Mark Thorpe, Erik Oberhausen and Bob McDonald thrashed on par with any other teenage punkers in the US.  
 
In 1983, the band recorded their only single, Drunken Sex Sucks (released by Local Anesthetic and recorded by Bob Ferbrache), which sold through two pressings at the time and now fetches up to $150 on eBay. Five songs appear on the single but twenty more were recorded at the same session and have been unavailable until now. Some of the tracks that did not make the single are arguably better than the ones that did. At the time, the band focused their energy into two albums and these recordings were forgotten over time. The original tapes were found while mastering the Local Anesthetic compilation and now the best hardcore record from '83 that was never released can finally see the light of day.  
 
This album is co-released by Maximum Rocknroll Records and is guaranteed to please punks both old and new.
