VARIANT: Transparent Red Vinyl LP

The Kids Will Be Alright is the debut album from Boston straight-edge hardcore pioneers SSD. Now, Trust Records are releasing a newly remastered version of the1982 release, and are pressing this long-out-of-print record on vinyl for the first time in decades. This deluxe version has been meticulously updated with remastered audio and a painstaking recreation of the iconic cover art, courtesy of Bryan Ray Turcotte.

Over the years the mythology of the album has only grown—and this reissue of the album is sure to introduce this prescient and powerful collection of songs to a new generation of fans who never had the opportunity to see the original lineup of guitarist Al Barile, vocalist David “Springa” Spring, bassist Jaime Sciarappa and drummer Chris Foley perform live.

Trust Records worked with Dan Johnson of Audio Achieving Services who remastered the audio from the safety version of the original master tapes. These tapes were cleaned despite extreme mold and water damage – which is something that Barile is proud to share with the world. “It sounds better than I thought it could have sounded at this point,” Barile explains. “I’m very pleased with the audio quality of it.”

This transparent red vinyl variant is limited to only 350 copies.
