Punkhouse

Punkhouse was the first EP released by Screeching Weasel. The record was released by Limited Potential Records in 1989. Label founder Mike Potential had relocated to Chicago from Ohio, where he had written a fanzine called Limited Potential, and was looking to start issuing records. He would go on to issue early recordings by Chicago-based alternative bands like the Smashing Pumpkins, the Poster Children, and Triple Fast Action. This is the only Screeching Weasel record to feature drummer Brian Vermin. It is also the first record to feature Danny Vapid. However, he was called "Sewercap" on this release.
