Record Collectors Are Pretentious Assholes

Record Collectors Are Pretentious Assholes is hardcore punk band Poison Idea's second EP. It was released in 1985 through Fatal Erection Records.

The artwork, coupled with the title, is a joke at the expense of guitarist Pig Champion, as it is a picture of his extensive record collection.

Critical reception
Trouser Press wrote that "the blind rage of songs like 'Die on Your Knees' and 'Don’t Like It Here' ... is as formidable as pre-domestication Iggy." AllMusic wrote that the EP "fine-tune[ed] the band's blistering sound and fatalistic worldview."
