Shipwrecked [LP] (First Time On Vinyl)

The Sultans - Shipwrecked [LP] (First Time On Vinyl)

* First time vinyl release of 2004 classic John Reis-led band (RFTC, Drive Like Jehu, Hot Snakes, etc)
* Remastered from original tapes, includes four bonus tracks
* Limited splatter pressing 
* No export restrictions 
First time available on vinyl! With bonus tracks and unreleased material! The Sultans formed in 2000 and were John Reis / Slasher and Tony DiPrima and at times also Andy Stamets / Black Flame (Rocket From The Crypt's ND) and Dean Reis / Black Velvet (Mannequin Piss, Spider Fever, The Heartaches, Los Dug Dugs). Shipwrecked was the bands second album and was released only on CD in 2004. It was hailed as a "power-pop meets '70s punk classic" by Virtual Underground Press and "... a masterpiece of the form... essential" by the Cleveland Call And Post. This reissue is a labor of lust with maximum attention to detail in resurrecting these masters from their deteriorated, analog state. The result is a louder, thicker and even more bristling slab of triumphant rock 'n' roll. Everything on this reissue cuts deeper and breaks the digital glass into razor sharp shards and then shits on the 1s and 0s. Treble Magazine says. "It is the perfect soundtrack to your post-breakup life: fourteen songs about heartache, shame, trying to move on, regrets and just plain old hate. (And by the by, hate has never sounded as good as this)". Added to the original are four bonus tracks, one being a cover of The Dils "Blow Up" and another the never released "Out Of Focus". Shipwrecked was the last record at Drag Racist (Hot Snakes, RFTC, etc) before it shuddered its doors for good.
