Deluxe 180g Vinyl 2LP Reissue with Bonus B-Sides and Rare Tracks on Side 4!
Big Country's self-produced, impassioned explosion of rock on 1993's The Buffalo Skinners roundly delivers on pulling this band's working-class masculinity, love of full-throated guitar and sense of political and social outrage together in one rousing, melodic, lyrical onslaught. Featuring the singles "Alone" and "Ships," along with fan favorites "What Are You Working For" and "We're Not In Kansas," which showcase a heavier guitar sound than their previous album, the pace rarely let's up throughout, taking in the anthemic "The One I Love" and the outraged "The Selling of America" before it all ends on the angry, science-gone-wrong, cloak and dagger horror tale of "Chester's Farm." The original vinyl version of the album only had a limited pressing on one LP. This new deluxe version has been split across two 180g vinyl discs for optimum sound quality and also features some b-sides and rare tracks on side 4. Gatefold sleeve packaging and liner notes from guitarist Bruce Watson round out the proceedings.
