All Photos By Ed Colver Trust Records, a new label from punk and industry vets Matt Pincus and Joe Nelson, is thrilled to release its debut release -- 1980’s landmark, Group Sex -- from LA hardcore stalwarts, the Circle Jerks. The genre-shaping fifteen minute album was the first release for vocalist Keith Morris (OFF!) after leaving Black Flag and was a key record to the early hardcore punk movement. Backed by Greg Hetson (ex Redd Kross, ex Bad Religion), Lucky Lehrer (ex-Bad Religion, ex-Wasted Youth, ex-Redd Kross) and Roger Rogerson, Group Sex is nothing less than a crucial record to the hardcore punk movement.  AVAILABLE NOW ON SPOTIFY, APPLE, BANDCAMP Trust Records was formed to give classic punk and hardcore records the home that they deserve. The great records of the genre sprung from DIY roots to influence millions of disaffected kids around the world. Unfortunately, many of these seminal records of this great genre have been treated poorly in the streaming age - out of print, under-monetized or not properly accounted for. Trust Records’ mission is to correct this problem and treat punk and hardcore with the same reverence that other great genres like folk, jazz and blues have received.  In celebration of Group Sex’s 40th anniversary, Trust presents the seminal release with deluxe packaging by Robert Fisher, designer of Nirvana’s Nevermind, a bonus recording of a 1980 rehearsal, a 20-page booklet including unreleased photos and anecdotes from Tony Hawk, Mike Patton, Shepard Fairey, Ian MacKaye, Lars Frederiksen and many others, in addition to a quality repackaging in a limited colored vinyl schema. The remastered audio is available across all digital retailers and vinyl format today! The pre-order is SOLD OUT.
