Iguana Studios Rehearsal Tape is a demo tape recorded by the San Francisco hardcore punk band Dead Kennedys, recorded at former studio Iguana Studios in San Francisco, California in 1978. This demo tape compiles the demos the band recorded while they were a five-piece. A few of these songs would go on to be re-recorded and released on Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables, In God We Trust, Inc., and Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death. It would be around 40 years after it was recorded until it would officially be released on September 27, 2019.[1]
