This past April marked the 20th anniversary of the Distillers' self-titled debut album, and the American punks have now teed up a reissue to mark the occasion.
A newly remastered reissue of The Distillers will arrive October 30 digitally and on vinyl, with further pre-order and pre-save information available here.
"This record is kind of the equivalent of someone reading my teenage diary, except worse," vocalist/guitarist Brody Dalle said in a statement. "Figuring out who I was as a songwriter, but with everyone watching and listening! All of my contemporary (at the time) influences for everyone to hear...[Kim Fuellman's] BADASS bass playing is still a highlight for me, and thanks to Matt Young as well for his enthusiasm and cool fast AF skin beats. The feedback at the end of 'Blackest Years' I did by total accident.... I love this record so much, warts and all."
Dalle and her Distillers bandmates are currently at work on a "masterpiece" new album, set to follow 2003's Coral Fang.
