Saturday Teenage Kick

By the time he reached 30, Tom Holkenborg had already produced and played with the Dutch new wave band Weekend at Waikiki, formed an industrial rock group (Nerve) that recorded two albums, produced bands like Sepultura and Fear Factory, and licensed his own electronic synth creations for video games. But all of that was mere prelude for what was about to unfold; for in 1997, Holkenborg adopted his Junkie XL persona and embarked on a journey that was to wind up with his composing wildly acclaimed film scores for films like Mad Max: Fury Road, 300: Rise of an Empire, Divergent, and Deadpool. But it all got started with this album, Saturday Teenage Kick, the first project released under the Junkie XL moniker and to this day a groundbreaking blend of rock and electronica. Never before released on vinyl outside of his native Netherlands and featuring the album-closing track “Future in Computer Hell”/”Mulu” that has never appeared on vinyl, it appears here in a double sea blue pressing remastered for the format and limited to 1500 copies, exclusive for Record Store Day.
