Nearly four decades later, Smash Palace resurrects the lost songs that would have been their 1987 follow-up. "87" features five newly re-recorded tracks by the reunited original Epic Records lineup alongside five pristine demos from 1987, creating a unique bridge between their critically acclaimed 1985 debut and everything that followed. This isn't just archival material-it's the missing link that captures the band at a pivotal moment, with sparkling power-pop hooks, jangly guitars, and melodic craftsmanship that sounds as fresh today as it would have then. While Smash Palace continued making music over the decades, this marks their first return to that foundational sound with the original members. Pressed on 140g black vinyl in a strictly limited edition of 100 copies.
