Influenced by bands such as Guided By Voices, Folk Implosion, and Pavement, Sebadoh has carved out their own distinct style.

With a discography spanning over three decades, Sebadoh has released numerous critically acclaimed albums and singles. Their music explores themes of love, loss, and introspection with a blend of lo-fi production and heartfelt performances. The band's lineup has seen various changes throughout the years but has consistently featured the talents of *Lou Barlow*, who is also known for his work with Dinosaur Jr.

Sebadoh's influence can be heard in the works of many other artists including J Mascis, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Built To Spill, and Silkworm. Their music continues to resonate with fans around the world who appreciate their honest songwriting and distinctive sound. Whether you're a longtime fan or new to their music, exploring Sebadoh's discography is sure to be a rewarding experience.

Their first studio album since 2013’s Defend Yourself and their first release with Fire Records, Lou Barlow and team return with a smorgasbord of beautifully dysfunctional tunes harking back to their finest college rock anthems.

It’s Barlow at his introverted songwriting best; matter-of-factly delivering a stream of self-questioning stories, punctuated by detuned guitars, spine-tingling time changes and throwaway one liners. A grainy post grunge postcard wrapped in bittersweet melodies with an aftertaste that’s pure heartbreak. More songs about growing up wrong for those who continue to act surprised at life itself - all illegibly handwritten and lovingly submitted to vinyl and CD.

LP - White vinyl housed in a full colour sleeve, with lyric insert and download.
