The Meanies cult classic and long out-of-print Come 'n' See album, remastered and repackaged on LP via Bang! Records. Australia's seminal punk-rock champs The Meanies are diving back into the vaults to remaster and reissue this classic early release on vinyl. Forming in 1989, The Meanies' catchy-as-hell, buzz-saw style of punk rock and a reputation for blistering and often dangerous live shows quickly gained a cult following across Australia. After releasing several sold-out 7"s via influential Melbourne indie label Au Go Go. From November 1990 to March 1991, they released a run of EPs and singles as limited edition 7" vinyl discs. Most of their material was written by Lindsay "Link Meanie" McLennan. They toured Australia, including appearances at Big Day Out festivals in 1992, 1993, and 1994. They supported local gigs by international artists in 1992, including Nirvana, Redd Kross, Beastie Boys, Pearl Jam, and Bad Brains. Their debut studio album, Come 'n' See, which appeared in April 1992, was produced by Michael "Ded" Kennedy and the Meanies. A PBS reviewer described how they had established themselves as one of Australia's preeminent underground rock bands through cultivating a huge all-age following and upsetting the rock establishment by breaking attendance records in the nation's capital cities. In 1993, The Meanies toured Europe and the United States. While in the US they traveled to Seattle to record their second studio album with Conrad Uno producing.
