Label: Barsuk Records
Format: 2LP, Deep Sea Blue Vinyl, Gatefold, Orig Album + 4 Bonus Tracks + Lyrics + New Liner Notes
After Harvey Danger's hit "Flagpole Sitta" exploded unexpectedly and launched the unassuming Seattle band and their debut album into a cultural whirlwind, they regrouped to record the follow-up that many fans consider to be their masterpiece. King James Version enjoyed great critical reception, but didn't yield any worldwide hit singles and over time has become equal parts cult favorite and lost classic, spending most of the past 25 years relatively hidden in the infinite aisles of the music-streaming superstores while generating evangelical loyalty among devotees. Barsuk is extremely excited to celebrate the 25th anniversary of one of our favorite albums by releasing it for the very first time on vinyl, in this colored-vinyl double-LP limited edition, packaged in a gatefold jacket with lyrics, new liner notes, new artwork, and a full side of A-side-worthy bonus tracks (also available on vinyl for the first time). It's a wide-ranging, massively intelligent piece of work that swings between indie, glam, mod, new wave, orchestral balladry, and pure radio pop, all set alight by caustic, clever, and heart-rent lyrics that capture a forgotten American moment—just before a century turned, and just after the party ended. This is a 2025 Record Store Day release.
