Combustible Edison - Forbidden Isle Of Demos (LP)

Release Date: May 26, 2023

For fans of: Retro-futurism, Esquivel, and cocktail revolution.

A Sonic Apéritif! This auditory hors d'oeuvre spawned the album that helped start the cocktail and exotica rebirth of the ‘90s! It’s hard to call recordings as lush and beautiful as these demos, but that’s what they are. These reels preceded the band’s Sub Pop debut I, Swinger, and contain early versions of most of that album along with songs you’ve never heard on record before!

• The ‘92 demo reel that got the band inked to sub pop, to eventually kickoff the neo-lounge movement!
• LP cut by Kevin Gray and pressed on black vinyl!
• Contains demo versions of 6 swanky cuts and seven others that didn’t make the cut!
• Includes a literal placemat’s worth of liner notes from Jim Allen!
