Hard-Ons + Jerry A – Hard-Ons + Jerry A

On the back of sharing stages for a just-completed European tour together, and following their 2025 US tour with Napalm Death and Melvins, Jerry A of legendary Portland powerhouse Poison Idea and his mates from Sydney’s The Hard-Ons — Blackie, Ray and Murray — are finally set to release an album.

The Hard-Ons first toured with Poison Idea back in the late '80s and first recorded with Jerry A as guest vocalist in 1993. Jerry co-wrote and sang the track “The Blade” on their Too Far Gone album. The track recently resurfaced on Jerry's solo album From The Fire Into The Water.

The first product of their new collaboration came in the form of the single “You Won't Shut Up” / “Dead End Turnaround”, released ahead of the American dates last year. And now, having just shared stages together in Europe, the team — known forthwith as Hard-Ons/Jerry A — have announced their new album, also titled Hard-Ons/Jerry A, will be released on August 14. 

Of the collaboration, Blackie from The Hard-Ons says:

"We toured and collaborated a few times before and always talked about getting serious... well here's the start of that. Hard-Ons with Jerry A!! It's happening."
