LIMITED EDITION 'VALENTINE CARD' PINK VINYL RE-ISSUE
Release Date: 2023
Re-issue of the 1993 seminal "proper" debut album from the pioneering underground rockers Unwound who would go on to influence so many bands. The Washington band developed their sound from the post-hardcore punk of the likes of Fugazi and in the shadow of the exploding grunge scene of the time. Fake Train is one of the best examples of lo-fi underground indie-rock with its abrasive and explosive sound shrouded in noise and full of tension in ever note that's hit!
"After the Pacific Northwest grunge raids of the early ’90s that saw Nirvana, Mudhoney, and even the Melvins hoisted up the major label flagpole, Unwound’s 1993 debut came as a welcomed reprieve for underground noise-niks everywhere. A pulsing cluster of wiry feedback, lurching bass, and single stroke rolls, Fake Train entangles the energies of frustrated backpack emo, faded Riot Grrrl back issues, and their own dash of teen spirit and unleashes it all in an earsplitting 10-song assault."
