Taking its name from a 1974 horror film, "It's Alive" was the last album to feature all four original band members: Dee Dee Ramone, Joey Ramone, Johnny Ramone and Tommy Ramone; it features material from the group's self-titled 1976 debut, 1977's "Leave Home" and "Rocket To Russia."

The fall 2019 project marks the first time that "It's Alive" has been released on vinyl in the US; the package will also be available through digital and streaming services.

"It's Alive" is being previewed with audio of a previously-unreleased version of "Blitzkrieg Bop" from the Top Rank show in Birmingham. Check it out along with the tracklisting here.
