D.O.A. “Welcome to Chinatown” (LP, CD, digital) available now from Sudden Death Records
Sudden Death Records is releasing Welcome to Chinatown, the definitive double live album by Canada’s legendary punk band D.O.A. Recorded over three nights between June 4, 2011 and January 19, 2013 at The Rickshaw Theatre in the heart of Vancouver’s historic Chinatown, D.O.A. gives you an unbelievable cultural and musical thrill ride with this epic release. Led by Canada’s Godfather of punk, Joe Shithead Keithley, the band rifles through punk classics pulled from albums like Something Better Change, Hardcore 81, War on 45 and Northern Avenger.
Fans around the world have proclaimed for the last 35 years that D.O.A. is one of the greatest and most exciting live bands ever… Welcome to Chinatown backs that up. The CD version also includes three bonus tracks that are not part of the vinyl release.
Complete Tracklist: D.O.A.. Class War, 2 + 2, World War 3, Police Brutality’ That’s Why I Am An Atheist, Fuck You, General Strike, Race Riot, We’re Driving To Hell And Back, The Prisoner, Fucked Up Stephen, Marijuana Motherfucker, Liar For Hire, I Live In A Car, America The Beautiful, Waiting For You, The Enemy, I Hate You, Woke Up Screaming, This Machine Kills Fascists, Human Bomb, War, Disco Sucks, Fucked Up Ronnie

Starting next week, Keithley will lead his talented henchmen: Dirty Dan Sedan (bass) and JJ Heath (drums) on a punk rock rampage through 40 cities. The Men of Action will employ their over the top, no holds barred, deafening combo of riffs, politics and humor to a wide collection of older D.O.A. classics, as well as some more recent nuggets. This farewell tour also serves as promotion for the latest studio album We Come in Peace and the double live album entitled Welcome to Chinatown.
