Blessed with a formidable frontwoman in Brett Anderson, a guitar heroine in Allison Robertson, and a pummeling rhythm section in bassist Maya Ford and drummer Torry Castellano, The Donnas were one of the greatest punk bands of the '90s, male or female, bringing a uniquely hedonistic yet feminist viewpoint to the genre. Now, with the full cooperation of the band, and in tandem with its release of the band’s four Lookout! albums, Real Gone Music is releasing a retrospective of their early days recording for (mostly) the Lookout! label featuring 14 non-LP sides.


The Donnas - Early Singles 1995-1999 features the band's first single, "High School Yum Yum," plus soundtrack favorites "Strutter" (Detroit Rock City) & "Keep On Loving You" (Drive Me Crazy), along with a fun cover of Alice Cooper's "School's Out)," and hadn't been on vinyl since their original release until the arrival of this collection; rare photos and memorabilia plus track-by-track commentary and liner notes (on the enclosed insert) by all four band members make Early Singles 1995-1999 truly indispensable for Donnas fans. Remastered for LP by Mike Milchner of Sonic Vision, and pressed on Natural with Pink "Yum Yum" Swirl, which is an Enjoy The Ride Records Exclusive variant (limited to 300 copies).
