SoCal punk / hardcore / metal hybrid outfit Excel has remastered seminal 1989 release, "The Joke's On You," which is now set to be released via Southern Lord on November 18th.

Originally released via Caroline Records, and produced by Randy Burns (Megadeth, Kreator, Possessed), "The Joke's On You" is Excel's second full-length album.

The Southern Lord reissue, remastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege, contains the twelve tracks featured on the original CD edition, including the track "Blaze Some Hate" -- initially released as a 12" single via Caroline, not the original release of the LP - appearing as the closing track.

This isn't the first time Southern Lord has documented the importance of Excel either, as the label also reissued the band's first album, "Split Image," in 2014.
