Posted by Loren on February 2, 2019

A new "fictional 1980s" punk band going by the name of Landfill Crew has released a new, self-titled 2x7", released collaboratively between Pirates Press and Hellcat.

Character Bagga, aka Tim Armstrong (Rancid) says the following:

The Landfill Crew is a fictional animated punk rock band set in the 1980’s. I play one of the characters named Bagga and my friend Tippa Lee plays the character Hux. Tippa Lee is one of my favorite Jamaican vocalists that has been recording reggae music in Kingston since the early 80’s. J Bonner animated the videos and helped develop the characters. Hope you guys enjoy this 4 song EP it as much as we do.
