Label: Pirates Press
Reissued 2/3/2023, Originally released 1996
This album is arguably, at least for many, the crown jewel of the Kepi catalog. Undoubtedly the Ghoulie's best selling album, "World Contact Day" fueled numerous worldwide pop punk escapades, and not only firmly put this band on the map, but made sure they would be a landmark for generations. From beginning to end, the album carries the passion, speed, silliness, and splendor, that so many have come to love from this band. Hearing these songs evokes that eternal 16-year-old in so many adults, many of whom are now bringing the next generation to Kepi's never-ending tour. As this group of younger fans imbibes and creates their own memories around the super mega hits like "Island of Pogo Pogo", "When the Kids go go Crazy" and "Ghoulies Are Go!" this album is one that deserves to be available in any record store, anywhere, anytime. This one is truly a must-have in any Pop punk collection. Pirates Press Records could not be more proud to re-issue world contact day with that goal: to make sure that kids (and adults) all over the world can get a beautiful copy of this spectacular pop punk living time capsule on vinyl!
