Repercussion is the second album by The dB's. Like its predecessor, Stands for Decibels, the album was commercially unsuccessful but has since developed a cult following. It is now arguably regarded as just as much of a classic as Stands for Decibels by both fans of power pop and rock fans in general.The dB's began recording the album after a brief tour in May 1981. Chris Stamey and Peter Holsapple, the band's singers/guitarists, had enough material almost immediately to begin a new album.
