International Pop Underground Convention is a live compilation LP/CD/cassette which documents the 1991 music festival of the same name. Various recordings from the festival were compiled by K Records and released as a double album and CD, featuring music by twenty-one different bands.
The 1991 International Pop Underground Convention took place in Olympia, Washington. It was all organized by Calvin Johnson, founder of the Olympia record label K Records.[1] The six-day festival centered on a series of performances at the Capitol Theater, and the theme of the Convention focused on the independence of artists- a "fierce resistance to corporate takeover."[2]
