HENRY ROLLINS To Issue Rare And Unreleased D.C.-Area Music

May 20, 2004

Punk rock icon Henry Rollins is starting a new record label focusing on rare and unreleased music from the Washington, D.C., area, according to MTV.com. "A couple of years ago, it hit me that there was some really cool music from my hometown of Washington, D.C., that was either out-of-print or unreleased and I should do something about that," Rollins wrote in his recent newsletter to fans. Dubbed District Line, the imprint's first releases will be TROUBLE FUNK's "Live & Early Singles" and the compilation ":30 Over DC", which features cuts by late-1970s D.C. bands such as THE SLICKEE BOYS, HALF JAPANESE and THE NURSES.
