BackgroundAt the beginning of 1978,[2][3] just a few months after being formed, the Flesh Eaters, in an early lineup composed of their founder, the singer and songwriter Chris Desjardins (pka Chris D.), guitarist Tito Larriva,[2][3] bassist John Richey, and drummer Joe Nanini, went into a studio for their first time, with Randy Stodola of the Alley Cats as producer and engineer, to record early versions of the songs "Disintegration Nation", "Agony Shorthand", and "Twisted Road",[2][3] which, as they were supposed to be demos only,[3] remained unreleased until 2004, when they were featured as bonus tracks on the CD reissue[4][5][6] of No Questions Asked,[2] the band's first full-length album originally released in 1980.[7][8] Shortly after, still in 1978, Chris D. would come back to Stodola's studio for a second session, this time backed by the members of the pioneering punk rock band the Flyboys,[9][1][10][11] to record what would be the debut release of his band.[12] Production and releaseThe Flesh Eaters EP, produced and engineered by Randy Stodola at Alleycat House, his four-track home studio,[12] was released in 1978 on Upsetter Records, in 7-inch vinyl disc format.{{refn|group=nb|Upsetter #UPSET 8}}[13] Critical receptionIn his biography of the Flesh Eaters for Perfect Sound Forever, Jay Hinman said that: {{Quote|"... [The Flesh Eaters EP], with just a hint of the ferocity of the LPs to come, is full of jagged, blazing glory, with a touch of rockabilly adulation and an up-front, slashing guitar sound that laid down a subsequent trademark."[1]}}Trouser Press, for its part, commented: {{Quote|"... to record the first Flesh Eaters EP", "[Chris] Desjardins ... borrowed an existing band – LA's flower-punk Flyboys —". "'Twas a wise choice: the trebly, hyperkinetic playing matches him lunge for lunge on four breathless numbers, including the well-beyond-Costello conflagration "Radio Dies Screaming.""[11]}}Disintegration Nation EP{{Infobox album| name = Disintegration Nation | type = ep | artist = the Flesh Eaters | cover = TheFleshEaters DisintegrationNationEP cover.jpeg | alt = | released = 2011 | recorded = Early 1978 | venue = | studio = Alleycat House | genre = Punk rock | length = | language = English | label = TKO | producer = Randy Stodola | chronology = The Flesh Eaters | prev_title = Miss Muerte | prev_year = 2004 | next_title = | next_year = }}Disintegration Nation is an archival 7-inch EP featuring, for the first time on vinyl,[3] and as a stand-alone release, the first studio recordings by the Flesh Eaters.
