Nirvana had a record before Nevermind, that changed things before they CHANGED things.  Sub Pop Records presents a non-deluxe, affordably-priced, single-LP version of Bleach, Nirvana’s debut album. Originally released by US in June of 1989, Bleach was widely recognized as a record music retailers should probably order after that one with the naked baby on the cover did so well in 1991. Now we proudly suggest you order this sturdy single-LP version of Bleach containing the full re-mastered album as found on the Bleach Deluxe Edition 2 LP, SP834 and a pretty printed inner sleeve.

Vinyl LP pressing of the record that changed everything.  Digitally remastered edition of this 1988 Hip Hop classic. The group was formed in Compton, California in 1986 by Eazy-E, Dr. Dre, and Ice Cube. Shortly after composing “Boys N the Hood,” they added DJ Yella, the D.O.C. and Arabian Prince to the lineup. N.W.A.’s first album, N.W.A And the Posse, was released in 1987. The following year, the group added the edgy vocals of MC Ren. All of the pieces were in place to deliver the now classic Straight Outta Compton in ’88. A record as important and relevant as ever.

Limited deep red colored vinyl LP pressing. Includes poster. 2021 release, the debut album from the British singer/songwriter. London-based musician and poet Arlo Parks, has been very steadily climbing the ranks as an artist to watch since the release of her confessional debut single “Cola” in 2018. Arlo has received praise from artists such as Billie Eilish, Wyclef Jean, Clairo, Florence Welsh and Phoebe Bridgers during the past year while growing her fan base exponentially.  Parks struggled with her identity growing up; a self- confessed tom-boy who was super sensitive and “uncool,” she says it was like “I’m a black kid who can’t dance for shit, listens to emo music and currently has a crush on some girl in my Spanish class.” By the time she reached 17, she shaved her head, figured out she was bisexual and produced/wrote an album’s worth of material.

The greatest band ever, Pixies forged an influential path for alt-rock during their first era and now as fired up as ever before, Pixies will release their eighth studio album ‘Doggerel’ via BMG, including lead single ‘There’s a Moon On’. ‘Doggerel’ is a mature yet visceral record of gruesome folk, ballroom pop and brutal rock, haunted by the ghosts of affairs and indulgences, driven wild by cosmic forces and envisioning digital afterlives where no God has provided one. And all the while, right there on the news, another distant storm approaches.

Pretenders is widely regarded as one of the greatest debut albums of all-time, the album is quintessential new wave, and a defining album of the 80s. It started with the release of their first single, a cover of The Kinks’ Stop Your Sobbing, produced by Nick Lowe. It would end up a top 40 hit in the UK, with their follow up single Kid also reaching the top 40. They then released one of Pretenders’ most famous tracks, BrassInPocket. Leading with a glorious guitar rhythm embodied by luscious chorus, BrassInPocket launched Pretenders onto a different level.  Perfection.

Double vinyl LP pressing. With the near impossible task of following up their critically acclaimed masterpiece OK Computer, Radiohead took another bold leap at the turn of the millennium with Kid A, an experimental album built largely around the union of electronica and mood. Musically, Kid A is as accomplished as anything Radiohead has ever produced and it’s overflowing with eye-opening musical mosaics which are absolutely stunning in their insight and beauty.  Tracks like the soaring “Optimistic” kept fans loyal and saw Radiohead crowned as masters of composition. A left-field hit, Kid A was eventually nominated for a Grammy for Album of the Year and won for Best Alternative Album.
