2001 release, restocked. "One of the most sought-after, critically-acclaimed pieces of post-punk history. Out-of-print for almost a decade now, the complete works of Kleenex/LiLiPUT are now available once again. This legendary pre-'riot grrl' Swiss band thrived in the glory days of post-punk (late '70's/early '80's), releasing a slew of singles and two albums (expensive collectors' items now) through Rough Trade. They made a splash across Europe with the wild, funny, almost child-like way they played, wrote and sang. Their records made the English charts and the media had great interest in what they dubbed 'the new Slits'. Kleenex/LiLiPUT have toured with with the Raincoats, Swell Maps, Spizz Energi, Subway Sect, Scritti Pollitti and Red Krayola among others. Not surprisingly, they are ranked as not only one of the most influential female bands of the era but one of the finest bands of the time, period. Adorned with original band photos and new liner notes from guitarist Marlene Marder, noted writer Greil Marcus and Kim Gordon this double-CD is sure to become majorly sought-after."

"If you've watched any live YouTube footage of Kleenex/Liliput then you know how amazing they were as a live band. This two CD/DVD set is a testament to their greatness. Featuring Kleenex live in Biel in 1979 and Liliput live in Zurich in 1983, the CD includes some never before released songs and the sounds of a world-class band in their prime. The DVD is the much rumored-about document of their European tour in 1982, mostly shot in Super 8mm and featuring their music."

2nd pressing. "One of the most unique punk bands of our time, hailed from Zurich, Switzerland. From 1978-80 Kleenex gigged around, recorded 2 7"'s and toured the UK with such acts as Gang Of Four, Subway Sect, The Swell Maps and The Raincoats. In 1980, the group changed their name to LiLiPUT (due to pressures from the Kleenex tissue company) and continued under that moniker until their demise in 1983. As LiLiPUT, 3 more 7"'s and 2 LP were released as the band evolved through numerous personnel changes. Finally the entire contents of the ever-popular Kill Rock Stars double CD is now available as a 4 LP set. Housed in a sturdy tip-on sleeve slipcase and includes a full-color 12-page booklet."
