Suffer This: A Compilation of Boston's Backwash was a collaboration of five boston punk\post punk\noise rock bands in the late 1980s. The five bands include The Five, Hullabaloo, Slaughter Shack, Hectic Heyday and Feeding Frenzy.

The sixth band listed—Jerkwater—was convened for this record, and was a super-group of sorts featuring members of Hullabaloo, Feeding Frenzy, Bim Skala Bim and The Zinnias. This is the only known recording featuring both Gonson sisters (JJ and Claudia).

There is also a hidden track on the album: Highway to Hell performed by Mimi and the Screeching Chinchillas, an earlier band that included members of Hullabaloo.

The Five originated in Pittsburgh, PA and moved to Boston, MA in 1984. It included Reid Paley, lately known for the Reid Paley Trio and his collaborations with Black Francis; Tom Moran late of the Deliberate Strangers; and Brian Gillespie who went on to perform with My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult (as Skip Towne) and the Concussion Ensemble.

Hullabaloo was from Cambridge, MA and had future albums on Toxic Shock Records and C/Z Records. Guitarist Sluggo went on to found the bands Ain't and The Grannies in San Francisco, CA. He is also the compiler of this compilation.
