Short Music for Short People

Short Music for Short People est une compilation punk sortie chez Fat Wreck Chords en 1999. L'idée était de rassembler un maximum de groupes (101 au total) qui devaient composer pour l'occasion une chanson de moins de 30 secondes.

On y retrouve certains groupes pop-punk comme The Offspring, Blink 182 et AFI. On y retrouve également les grands noms du Punk-Rock des années 90, en l'occurrence Green Day, NOFX, Rancid, No Use For A Name, Lagwagon, Bad Religion, Pennywise...

Le titre de l'album est une référence directe à un slogan inventé par Monte Cazazza pour qualifier la musique industrielle : "Industrial Music for Industrial People".

À noter que pour des raisons techniques, un CD ne pouvant avoir au maximum que 99 pistes, les trois dernières chansons furent regroupées sur une même piste.
