Legendary punk trio the Dils formed in San Diego in southern California and when they moved to San Francisco, bassist Tony Kinman found himself living with the Avengers, but once they hit Los Angeles in 1977 they began recording frantic singles for fledgling independents such as What? Records, Dangerhouse and Rogelleti for more melodic, country-influenced songs, pointing to their further reincarnation as Rank & File. Ace compilation Dils Dils Dils gathers early studio work and live recordings, this edition featuring two bonus tracks, recorded in LA in 1979. Crucial listening for all Dils fans!
