The Angry Samoans – “Inside My Brain” (1980)
US pressing on Bad Trip Records
12", 45 RPM
Certainly in my top 5 punk bands. They were a great representation of the punk ethos of their time. Angry, snotty, divisive, offensive, and raw.
Lots of infighting with the scene, best demonstrated by their diss track about Rodney Biggenheimer.
Lee Ving is alleged to have produced this album but asked not to have his name credited because of “Get Off The Air”.
I can’t tell if this is a first or second pressing from 1980, or a repressing from 1983. Pretty sure I bought this used, which is why there’s red marker writing on the cover.
@sll Oh I'm painfully aware of the runout info on Discogs. I was warned I'd be spending a lot of time looking at these markings lol. But I'm getting better at figuring it out.
It's just that this one is a bit confusing because the difference in runout markings between '80 and '83 is super minimal and has conflicting info. Specifically, my copy has this marking exactly -B KM-5654-B₁, with the last digit being a very small # 1. But it does not have the additional stamp from the '83 runout of S-10391.

Awww Discogs hell... I did run into the same problem with another record, small numbers / normal size numbers. At the end I decided the size didnt matter much. I reckon the guy who added the etching numbers on the 1980 version did not bother to write small 1s. But maybe I'm wrong... Good luck ;)
