Brand new sealed album with tiny corner ding.
(LP + 7")
Singer/songwriter/guitarist Mark Linkous began working as Sparklehorse in
1995 and, after a demo made its way to the offices of Capitol Records, he got
signed to the label. Sparklehorse's 1996 acclaimed debut,
Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot, is full of sad, beautiful, weird moments
of spacey rural folk-rock and contains the alternative radio hit
"Someday I Will Treat You Good". Dreamy arrangements, distorted
vocals, and slivers of feedback add to Sparklehorse's down-to-earth
melancholy and made it spontaneous, happy, sad, noisy, and quiet; like
moments in life. This reissue comes with a bonus 7" containing
"Waiting For Nothing" (Ghost Song in the original vinyl version)
and "Happy Place."
