Label: Asian Man
Reissued 2007, Originally released 1998
In the summer of 1998, one of the most influential punk albums (Goddamnit) was recorded by a little ol' band from Chicago called the ALKALINE TRIO. Costing only $900 over a course of 5 days, this album went on to sell over 200,000 records globally. Ten years later we bring you the extensive rerelease of this classic album. Most rereleases offer the basic remastered + bonus photos/liner notes type of deal, but this reissue has been a three year long process that's been given the royal treatment. Completely remixed, remastered, new artwork, and a two hour DVD documentary featuring all original members. Interviews include Matt Skiba, Dan Andriano, and Glenn Porter from the ALKALINE TRIO, Brendan Kelly (LAWRENCE ARMS), Matt Allison (Atlas Studios), Heather Hannoura (Artist/Roadie), and Mike Park (Asian Man Records). The DVD takes you through the story of the bands creation through the eyes of all the major players who were involved in the genesis of the band. It also includes the entire Goddamnit album performed by the original band and then again by the current lineup. The vinyl will be released on six limited edition colors of quantities of 500. Two of them will be exclusive to their fan club, which leaves only 2,000 pieces of wax for the rest of the world to fight over. Those who purchase the vinyl will also receive a gift certificate for a free copy of the DVD.
