I'm getting older as evidenced by the number of albums that I cherished growing that have since become out of print and in some cases reissued. Looks like Op Ivy's Energy is getting the reissue treatment. According to PunkMusic.com a new issue of Punk Rock Confidential has an ad with the "Ska Man" from Op Ivy's Energy that states the album will be reissued on Rancid Records along with the message "It's back after 2 years and remastered..." I remember using Op Ivy as sort of a punk rock litmus test in those days. Basically if you owned albums by Green Day and Rancid, but not Op Ivy you were a poseur. If you owned Op Ivy stuff it was okay to own an album like Dookie. Oh the memories.
