Legendary riot grrrl progenitors Bikini Kill have a whole catalogue of records to reissue, and will be doing so on their eponymous new record label, Bikini Kill Records (via Prefix). The launching of the record label coincides with the 25th anniversary of the band, who plan to reissue physical Bikini Kill records one at a time. For their inaugural release, the label will be putting out band’s 1991 self-titled EP, due sometime in this Fall. Currently, digital versions of albums by Bikini Kill, The Casual Dots, and The Frumpies are available on their website.

Then band also plans to re-catalogue more than just their music. From the website: “We are currently going through our archive, which include photographs, practice tapes, live recordings, unreleased songs, films, video, writing, interviews, zines and flyers that we intend to feature on future releases and document on our website.”

Here’s Bikini Kill with “Rebel Girl” from Bikini Kill EP.
