| Description: | Is This Real is an album by Wipers, released in 2023. Is This Real includes a.o. the following tracks: ??Return Of The Rat?, ??Up Front?, ??D-7?, ??Potential Suicide? and more. The album is a rock LP. - Unquestionably Portland's most well-loved punk group, they formed in the late 70's & in 1980 released their debut LP. 12 songs of stabbing, jittery guitar, snapped vocals, & unabashed teen angst. Full of desperation & yearning, the LP has stood as a blueprint for wretched youth for over 25 yrs. In the early 90's it was given mainstream attention when Nirvana covered 2 tracks off the record & Cobain announced it was one of the primary influences on his group.Recorded and produced in Portland, Oregon 1980.
A-side runout matrix says "NOTHINGS EVER GONNA CHANGE". B-side runout matrix says "For A While".
