Limited edition 12", first time pressed to vinyl, with hand screen printed cover. Remastered for vinyl. Cover hand drawn by Current Joys. This third full length album from Nevada native Nick Rattigan, released only a year after his debut, speaks to the young artist’s prolificacy - housing a combination of 14 tracks sometimes unduly considered b-sides (such as the stand out and a - side worthy Let Me Be), rarities (such as the stripped back demo of ‘My Blueberry Life ’ lead track from the previous LP “2013”) and live demos of both released and upcoming gems (such as the 2015 follow up LP Me Oh My Mirror’s anthemic ‘ My Motorcycle’). An album for the real Current Joys heads this fuzzy, treasure laden and often distorted, LP speaks to the process and inner workings of the artist behind it. Deluxe Re-Issue Packaging w/ Metallic Print Insert. First Time Back In Print Since Original Release.
