Pennywise - Pennywise Vinyl Record

Brace yourself for a blast of pure SoCal punk fury with Pennywise, the band’s self-titled debut album that kicked down the door in 1991 and never looked back. This is the raw, defiant, and deeply influential record that set the tone for the band’s long-standing career—and helped define the West Coast skate punk scene.

From the opening punch of “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” to the anthemic closer “Bro Hymn,” this LP is a straight-up adrenaline rush. Tracks like “Rules,” “Homeless,” and “Living for Today” mix lightning-fast rhythms with biting lyrics and that unmistakable melodic aggression Pennywise would soon become known for. And let’s be real—if you’ve ever shouted along to “Bro Hymn” with a crew of sweaty punks, you know this album hits different.

Produced with a gritty, no-frills approach, the album perfectly captures the energy of the early ’90s punk revival. Every note oozes urgency, frustration, and conviction, with Jason Thirsk’s bass lines adding a heartbeat that still resonates with fans old and new.

Pressed on black vinyl, this reissue of Pennywise is a must for anyone looking to reconnect with the roots of modern punk. It’s fast, it’s loud, and it’s still one of the most honest records the genre has ever produced.
