Description: Government Issue, often shortened to G.I., emerged from Washington, D.C.’s first wave of hardcore in 1980 and became one of the scene’s longest-running and most adventurous bands. Led throughout its existence by the irrepressible John Stabb, the group debuted with the ferocious Legless Bull EP in 1981 and spent the rest of the decade refusing to stand still. While their earliest material delivered the short, fast blasts associated with D.C. hardcore, later records expanded into melodic punk, post-hardcore, metal, new wave, and psychedelic territory. This design is based on the explosive Make an Effort 7" from 1982, which should be required listening for every hardcore punk fan.
