MVD and Am Rep partner on a series of re-issues from this legendary label founded in 1986 by Tom Hazelmyer. Best known for its roster of noise rock artists, and its Dope, Guns 'n' Fucking In The Streets series of compilations, the label also released the debut album by Helmet, Strap It On, which sold more than 40,000 records. According to Hazelmyer, the success of the album was vital to keeping AmRep going throughout the 1990s, as it "helped support the other things that sold less."
