NakedRaygun-ThrobThrob.jpg

Throb Throb was Naked Raygun's first full-length release and may very well be the most important record in the history of Chicago punk. Released by Homestead Records, Throb Throb was recorded the summer of 1983 but because of funding issues was not released until 1985. By the time the record was released, drummer Jim Colao had already left the group. It was re-released with bonus version of Libido in 1999 by Quarterstick Records.

In March 2008, Throb Throb was reissued on limited edition colored vinyl (800 yellow, 550 oxblood) by Haunted Town Records.
