Black Album

Riding off the debut hype of 1995's Dandys Rule Ok, this new batch of songs saw a band spinning into an unknown. Bigger budgets meant bigger expectations, and The Dandy Warhols didn't want to lose their lipsticked sneer by bowing down to the powers that be. Knobs were turned into the red and chemical hors d'oeuvres were served around the clock with the intent of pushing themselves to uncharted waters. They even got a trumpet to feed back. Picture the band sending Capitol a song called Crack Cocaine Rager and just try not to smile. But we all know the story. After a brief tour with Love and Rockets to clear their heads, the label and the band both decided to hit the reset button. The demos for Boys Better and Minnesoter among other fragments and oddities ended up on the now-legendary... The Dandy Warhols Come Down. This repressing is no longer a gatefold cover, but instead a ingle pocket Jacket with a printed inner sleeve containing a download card which accompanies the 140 gram vinyl.
