The title and the cover of the EP is based on the Boston hardcore compilation This Is Boston, Not L.A.. Zafio Records co-founder Jesse Luscious loved the original Boston compilation so much he chose to pay homage to it through this release of 4 of the best young east bay punk bands of the time. It was the first or close to the first official release of each band. All 4 were growing in popularity in the local do-it-yourself punk scene at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, California.

The EP was reissued in 2011 on Zafio Records by Jesse Luscious in a one-time repressing of 1, 000 copies on white vinyl. Each copy was hand-numbered and contained a free mp3 version of the 4 songs. The EP was remixed by Noah Landis and remastered by George Horn of Fantasy Studios.

The AFI song "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing" was re-recorded for AFI's album Very Proud of Ya, but was only featured on the vinyl version.

gollark: Question: I wish to interact with """matrix""". However, due to synapse memory use bad, I can *either* have a working homeserver thing with bridge support (for APIONET and whatever) or a somewhat experimental one without that but which will not utterly consume all RAM ever when joining big rooms.
gollark: Anyway, see, concepts like "esolang" and "not esolang" have fuzzy boundaries so trying to insist that something is or isn't or give a highly rigorous definition is no.
gollark: Lisp is so wondrous that minoteaur is to be inevitably unfinished and rewritten in it.
gollark: Homomorphic encryption? It isn't very production ready yet.
gollark: IPv6 is necessary for optimal osmarks.net access.
