Description
The recklessness and abandon that got me into punk in the first place a teetering train about to off the rails. I couldnt wait to hear what was next. Dexter Holland (The Offspring)
The best Rock and Roll band of the 80s. Steve Albini (Shellac, Big Black)
Kick Ass Rock and Roll Im in love! Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys)
Didjits began in Champaign-Urbana in 1985 when Rick Sims (vocals/guitar) and his brother, Brad Sims (drums) recruited bassist Doug Evans to complete the three-piece. They recorded two albums before the Touch and Go label picked them up in 1988. By this time Rick had transformed into the notorious front man Rick Didjit, whose on-stage antics were as famous as his frequently hilarious wardrobe of unconventional suits. The band’s straight-up-fast brand of rock didn’t sound like much else the label was putting out at the time, but nonetheless, they attracted a large cult following.
For Record Store Day 2024, a limited edition green 180g 2xLP package includes a full bonus LP of rarities and unseen photos and memorabilia, curated by Rick Sims and David Landis. Limited to 1500 worldwide.
