Complete your Wipers collection. Is This Real? Return Of The Rat.

Is This Real? is the debut studio album by the Portland, Oregon-based punk rock band Wipers, originally released on vinyl in January 1980 by Park Avenue Records.

Youth of America is the second studio album by American punk rock band Wipers. It was released in 1981 by record label Park Avenue. The album marked a distinctive change in the band's sound. Compared to its predecessor, Is This Real?, which was composed mostly of raw, sleek and relatively traditional songs, Youth of America featured much longer and complex compositions; the title track alone clocks in at over 10 minutes.

Released May 17, 1981. Youth of America Tracklist. The album was released in 1981 by Park Avenue, who also released the band’s studio debut, Is This Real. Restless Records reissued the album in 1990, and Sage’s own Zeno Records released the album again in 2001 as part of the Wipers Box Set. Jackpot Records reissued the album one more time in 2007. In comparison to the tight, compact song structures of the first album, Youth of America is almost prog-rock by comparison, with some tracks clocking in at over ten minutes.

A distant cousin of the preceding Youth of America but undoubtedly no less excellent and no less venomous, Over the Edge is a return to the easily digestible song lengths of Is This Real?; however, it all but leaves that debut in its wake. On the strength of some brave/smart radio stations that decided to play this album's "Romeo" (a propulsive horn-flecked slammer in the vein of "Youth of America"), Wipers solidified their status as a certifiable force in the American underground of the early '80s

On Youth of America he is both defeated by impotent rage and consumed by a lust for unknown pleasures, self-discovery, and change. This is essentially the punk equivalent of an evil laugh emanating from a lone turret at night. On the breakdown, delay is used on the cymbals so that they ricochet around the mix, both heightening the air of draughty gothica and needling those proto-Yuppies like a bad conscience, on the eve of their deal with the devil.

Notes

'The Wipers first 3 classic LP's digitally re-mastered, 23 bonus tracks and 6 never before released songs with liner notes by Greg Sage.'

1-1 to 1-11: Is This Real?.
Bonus tracks: 1-12: Wipers first song ever recorded in 1979 but was never released / 1-13: was originally recorded for "Is This Real?" but was never released / 1-14: a very early recording that also was never released / 1-15 to 1-18: songs of the original 4 track recording of "Is This Real?" / 1-19 to 1-22: The Alien Boy EP
℗ 2001 ZENO Records © 1980 TRAP Records

2-1 to 2-6: Youth Of America.
Bonus tracks: 2-7: was recorded during the "YOA" sessions with a 4 piece horn section. This song was mixed bright to bring out the feel of edginess with the horns but did not fit the dark mood of the "YOA" LP. Sadly it was never released. / 2-8, 2-9, 2-11: out-take mixes from another studio with some slight differences. "YOA" has a different feel with the snare up front and the guitars blended more edgy. / 2-10: recorded with a different drummer who was later replaced by Brad Naish and his awesome hypnotic style.

3-1 to 3-11: Over The Edge.
Bonus tracks: 3-12: recorded live 1983 in San Francisco. Mistaken ID was a song we had plans to record for "Over The Edge", but was forgotten. / 3-13: recorded at the "OTE" sessions, the flipside for the "Romeo" EP. / 3-14 to 3-16: out-take mixes for "OTE" with some differences. / 3-17: a different mix and vocal track with a lot more horn section. / 3-18: a short instrumental demo we almost recorded for "OTE".
