Give Me Convenience Or Give Me Death

Explosive, satirical, and fiercely intelligent—Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death is Dead Kennedys’ essential compilation of singles and rarities. Released in 1987, it captures the raw political energy of American punk with blistering clarity. From “Police Truck” to “California Über Alles,” this record blends scathing commentary with razor-sharp riffs and manic vocals. It’s loud, fast, and still relevant decades later.
