The Replacements are an American rock band known for their influential music. Their early albums, such as "Sorry Ma, Forgot To Take Out The Trash" and the "Stink EP," were heavily influenced by American hardcore, similar to their contemporaries Hüsker Dü. As they progressed, their sound evolved to include slower tempos.
In 1986, Bob Stinson left the band and was replaced by Slim Dunlap. Internal tensions eventually led to the band's breakup in 1991. However, in 2006, the surviving members (excluding original drummer Chris Mars and the late Bob Stinson) reunited to record new tracks for a Replacements compilation.
Exciting news came on October 3rd, 2012 when it was announced that The Replacements were active again. With a rich history and enduring influence on rock music, The Replacements continue to captivate audiences with their unique sound and legacy.

Box Sets

Originally released in 1987, Pleased To Meet Me is the fifth studio album from The Replacements. Formed in Minneapolis in 1979, The Replacements initially started out as a punk rock band but grew to be one of the pioneers of alternative rock. Pleased To Meet Me is the only album from the band recorded as a trio after guitarist Bob Stinson’s exit after the release of their fourth studio album Tim, and before the addition of guitarist Bob ‘Slim’ Dunlap.

The album is available here as a 3CD / 1LP box set with The music presented in a 12 x 12 hardcover book with rare photos and a new historical liner note by Bob Mehr, author of Trouble Boys: The True Story of the Replacements.

The album received widespread critical acclaim with Rolling Stone describing it as “an album alive with the crackle of conflicting emotions and kamikaze rock &amp; roll fire”, as well as Pitchfork rating it 9.3 out of 10. The album is often considered as one of the greatest albums of the 1980’s.
