Before dropping their skateboards for T-birds, New Jersey’s Rye Coalition were a quintet of Faux-gazi aspirants living the post-hardcore dream. And while their debut album didn’t arrive until 1997 (on the venerable Gern Blandsten imprint), the band issued a series of demos, splits, and 7″s in that run up. Gathered onPulaski Skyway & Other Bridges Burned are splits with Maximillian Colby and Karp, Teen-Age Dance Session and New Sherrif In Town singles, The Dancing Man tape, and a few strays, annotated with fresh liner notes from Tony Rettman and period photos and flyers from the band’s extensive archive.

BONUS: Limited hand screened jacket edition also comes with “Dover” b/w “Ceremony For A Fat Lip” 7″ a nearly complete account of the band’s earliest and most savage years.

Pre-order: Orders will begin shipping in late April
