Poison Girls - Persons Unknown The Complete Recorded History 7 CD box set

This limited-release seven CD box set brings together all of Poison Girls studio and live albums, plus all of the band’s singles released on the Xntrix, Small Wonder, Crass Records, Illuminated, and Upright labels. Also included are demo recordings of unreleased tracks from early in the band’s career, songs by spin-off duo That Famous Subversa, and live and home recordings from the final years of the band’s life—material that has never been released before. The box set includes a fully illustrated, full-color 96-page booklet that contains an exhaustive set of song lyrics and a succinct history of the band written by Rich Cross. The box set is sequenced by Rich Cross and Richard Famous and co-released by PM Press, Cooking Vinyl, Free Dirt, and Active Distribution.
