The Neo Boys broke into the male-dominated punk scene in 1978, when the band of four women took to the stage in Portland and made a serious impact on the history of punk.

Now, indie label K Records is releasing a double CD (and double LP) retrospective of their work, “Sooner or Later,” which pulls together the band’s rough recordings from 1978-1983. Listening to the album from guitarist Jennifer LoBianco (and, later, Meg Hentges), drummer Pat Baum, and sisters Kim and Kt Kincaid feels like hearing music that’s “from the end of the pen, the stroke of the brush, a hit across the back of the head with a 2x4” that is “joyous to the extreme,” as K Records founder Calvin Johnson puts it.

The 45-track album “Sooner or Later” goes on sale on October 15, but K Records is streaming the album on Bitch for free just this week only. Listen below!

UPDATE 10/16: This album stream is now done. But you can listen to two songs for free below.
