Game Theory was an American rock band that originated in 1982 in Davis, California. They quickly gained popularity and their music was widely played on student-run university radio stations. Game Theory was one of the pioneering bands in the "college rock" genre during the 1980s.

Their unique sound and catchy melodies drew inspiration from a variety of genres including power pop, jangle pop, and alternative rock. With thought-provoking lyrics and infectious hooks, *Game Theory* captivated audiences with their distinctive style.

Influenced by bands such as Let's Active, Tommy Keene, The Loud Family, and The Three O'Clock among others, *Game Theory* created a sound that resonated with fans across the nation. Their music continues to inspire artists today and remains a testament to their lasting impact on the music industry.

Omnivore Recordings is an independent record label based in Los Angeles, USA. Founded in 2010 by music industry veterans Cheryl Pawelski, Greg Allen, Dutch Cramblitt, and Brad Rosenberger, the label specializes in preserving legacies and music created by historical, heritage, and catalog artists. They are also known for releasing previously unissued and newly found "lost" recordings.

With a mission to honor the rich musical history of artists from various genres, Omnivore Recordings has acquired the catalogs of renowned musicians such as *The Buck Owens Estate*, *Big Star*, and *Game Theory* in 2017. This acquisition further solidifies their commitment to preserving important musical works that may have otherwise been forgotten or lost.

As a leading authority on archival releases and reissues, Omnivore Recordings ensures that fans of these artists can continue to enjoy their timeless music while introducing new audiences to their incredible talent. With a dedication to quality sound restoration and comprehensive liner notes, they provide listeners with an immersive experience into the artist's world.

Omnivore Recordings releases the first in a series of expanded reissues of the Davis, California group's classic catalogue. 'Blaze Of Glory', originally released in 1982, was the first music from Miller and company, after an album and EP fronting Alternate Learning. It showed the beginnings of the power-pop mixed with new-wave sensibilities the band would become known for and even hints at the upcoming Paisley Underground sound that would take California by storm. Unavailable in its original form since its initial release (the material was remixed and re-recorded as part of a now out-of-print 1993 compilation that also commands top dollar in collector circles), the CD issue of 'Blaze Of Glory' contains the entire 12 track album, supplemented with 15 bonus tracks - 4 from Alternate Learning and 11 previously unissued tracks from Scott Miller's archive. The vinyl LP also sees its first reissue in over 3 decades. The first pressing on translucent pink vinyl contains a download card for the entire 27 song program.
