The Hidden Cameras have announced a deluxe reissue of their 2003 album The Smell of Our Own. It will be out April 14 through Rough Trade — exactly one day before the album's 20th anniversary.
This 2LP edition comes on yellow vinyl, and includes demos, B-sides and live sessions. To mark the announcement, the band have shared a TV performance of the album's "Ban Marriage," a CBC Radio performance of "Boys of Melody," plus a short TV documentary from 2002. The 10-song tracklist has been doubled to 20.
Speaking of documentaries, a new doc called Music Is My Boyfriend recently premiered in London, UK. It was filmed in 2002 and only screened once in Toronto in 2005 (under a different title). The film will presumably get a wider release now, although details aren't yet available.
The Smell of Our Own (20th Anniversary Edition) is available to pre-order here. Scroll past the tracklist to see all of the band's newly unearthed videos, including the Music Is My Boyfriend trailer.
