BIOGRAPHY
Naked Raygun was one of the first, one of the longest running and one of the best Chicago punk bands. They are considered by a large majority to be the most important band in the history of Chicago punk. Raygun was active (in various lineups) from 1980 to 1992, along with reunion shows in 1997. In late 2006 Raygun reformed and is still active. They were one of the few bands to span the entire decade of the 80s and played with or helped bring along most of the acts during that time. In 2021, the band released their first LP of new material in 31 years.
ABOUT THIS RELEASE...
"Naked Raygun, the most beloved Chicago punk band of all time, left a void that couldn’t be filled when they broke up in 1992. It took a fledgling music festival led by an incredibly passionate music fan to make an entire punk scene’s biggest dream come true by getting the band back together to headline Riot Fest in 2006. This was the single most important band reunion in the history of the Chicago music scene, and it was a once in a lifetime magical event that people still talk about 20 years later. Finally we have a document to relive that evening and prove that it wasn’t just a new dream, they made it real, and it kickstarted a second run for the band that lasted nearly two more decades." - Mike MXV VinikourPunkvinyl.com
