Unknown Road
''Unknown Road'' is the second album by Pennywise, released on August 17, 1993 through Epitaph Records. After frontman Jim Lindberg briefly left the band during touring in support of its previous album, ''Pennywise'' (1991), Pennywise began the recording sessions for their second album. Released a year before the success of punk rock in California, ''Unknown Road'' gained Pennywise supporting slots on national and world tours with bands such as The Offspring (who was just about to hit the mainstream with then-new album ''Smash''). Some archived footage of the ''Unknown Road'' tour dates can be seen on the band's 1995 documentary ''Home Movies''.
Like their self-titled debut album ''Pennywise'', ''Unknown Road'' failed to chart in Billboard magazine. This would be Pennywise's last uncharted album to date.
==Background and recording==
In 1989, Pennywise released the vinyl only EPs ''A Word from the Wise'' and ''Wildcard'' (which were both re-released on CD in 1992). Thanks to the success of the EPs, Epitaph Records (a label owned by Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz) saw the band's potential and signed them in 1990. In the following year, Pennywise managed to release their first album for the label, which is self-titled. The album quickly spread throughout the punk community, earning the band some nationwide recognition. Lyrics in the album endorsed a positive mental attitude, helping promote progressive ideals for Generation X. Lindberg left the band soon after the debut record. Bass player Randy Bradbury joined the lineup as Thirsk took over lead vocal duties. In 1992, The Vandals lead singer Dave Quackenbush took over on vocals for a brief stint. Bradbury left the band and Thirsk returned to bass (Bradbury would rejoin Pennywise permanently after Thirsk's death in 1996). During the 1991-1992 tour, Pennywise began writing their second album, entitled ''Unknown Road''. After Lindberg returned to the fold in 1992, they managed to begin recording their new album at Westbeach Recorders in Hollywood, California with producer Joe Peccerillo.
