4,500 PRESSED ON “GOLD” WAX FOR RECORD STORE DAY 500 PRESSED ON “GREEN” WAX FOR PACIFIC NORTHWEST STORES (Wa, Or, Id) Modern Classics Recordings is proud to present for the first time on vinyl Built to Spill's debut album, _Ultimate Alternative Wavers_. Showcasing a nod to Sonic Youth and Dinosaur Jr, _UAW_ was recorded at Audio Lab Studios in the band's hometown of Boise, Idaho and soon after released on Seattle imprint C/Z Records in 1993. Featuring former Treepeople member Doug Martsch, Caustic Resin's Brett Netson, and drummer Ralf Youtz the album features total rippers like the 9 minute "Built Too Long Parts 1, 2 & 3", while hazy daze of "Nowhere Nothin' Fuckup" lyrically pays homage to Velvet Underground's "Oh! Sweet Nuthin". While it may have been the band's debut, _UAW_ still remains a special time capsule from one of modern rock's great bands that are still going strong after 21 years.
