deletedunknown Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 there's a sample of one of the bonus tracks on pitchfork. http://pitchfork.com/news/54437-american-football-to-reissue-1999-self-titled-album-in-deluxe-edition/ definitely reaffirming my decision not to buy. as much as i love this record, i don't think i'll ever spin the second disc, and my 180-gram black vinyl sounds great. I can see why they didn't want to release it as a standalone based on the recording quality of that track. Truth is, though, that had they releases the disc as a standalone, I would have bought it without a second thought. Anyway, whatever, I still will be happy to pay to download and listen to these recordings. Tommy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume "Boombox Practice Session" means it was literally recorded to tape from a Boombox. I'm a sucker for alternate demo tracks and lofi audio. I don't have a copy of the proper album as it is, money well spent IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lo-fi quality and simple guitar parts are really endearing. Shitty Rambo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billya Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 If I didn't already have a copy signed by Mike Kinsella I would grab this. That green and yellow will look awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnywreck Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 This is actually pretty crazy to me. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that he's been pretty busy with other projects that might be opening up others' eyes to American Football and other stuff? I mean, how many things has he had his hands in this year? It's awesome. Can't get enough Kinsella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t.papaccio Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 I got the green/yellow. Really excited to hear the rest of the demos and live stuff. I already have this on vinyl but since this is a favorite of mine I have to pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwhitmuzik Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 It's at the very least a Chicago release show, what else could it possibly be? Like seriously. If the reissue wasn't announced I'd say a reissue or maybe a single, but...I don't know, I see no other possibilities other than at least a show.
