Reissue of Blind Pigs’ Self-Titled LP Available for Pre-Order Now!
We have a big surprise for your available for pre-order NOW: a reissue of the classic self-titled LP by São Paulo, Brazil’s Blind Pigs!
Known by many fans (and even by the band) as “The Yellow Album,” this beloved album is considered the essential game changer in the Blind Pigs catalog, and a classic of South American streetpunk in general!
Featuring hits like “Amanhã Não Vai Mudar,” “O Idiota,” and “Sete de Setembro,” all of which remain crowd-pleasing favorites among the ‘legion of nonconformists’ at every Blind Pigs show, this is the place to start for many of the band’s greatest anthems.
“‘The Yellow Album’ was a moment of musical evolution for Blind Pigs, both in production and songwriting. It was the first time the band made an entire album at once, unlike the previous two, which combined songs from various phases,” recalls guitarist Gordo.
Originally released only on CD in Brazil in 2002, and out of print on vinyl for over a decade, Pirates Press Records is proud to put this classic back in print with its first ever pressing of 12” vinyl, remastered and re-cut at 45 RPM for optimal sound quality, and pressed on gorgeous Sunspot Marble vinyl! Also included is a booklet with unreleased photos and the story of the album’s conception straight from the band.
Vocalist Henrike calls this the “definitive version” of this essential record, and it is available for pre-order NOW in the Pirates Press Records webstore! It will be available at finer record stores on March 22nd. While you’re shopping, we’ve also put up two new Blind Pigs shirt designs for you to pick up as well!
Finally, as a special bonus for those in the São Paulo area, the band will play two shows this weekend at Hangar 110, playing the São Paulo Chaos LP on Saturday and the self-titled LP on Sunday, each in their entirety! The reissue of the self-titled LP will be exclusively available at these shows ahead of its international release date!
