Slint - Spiderland

Originally released in 1991, Spiderland is the foundational pillar of the post-rock and math-rock movements. Recorded over four days in a basement in Louisville, Kentucky, the album is a masterclass in tension and release, characterized by its "taut, menacing, and haunting" atmosphere. Following the overwhelming success of the limited 2014 box set, Touch and Go Records released this "modest" yet premium edition to satisfy the massive demand for a high-fidelity version of the record that famously earned a perfect 10 on Pitchfork.

This edition features the same meticulous audio restoration found in the sold-out box set, remastered from the original analog master tapes by Bob Weston (of Shellac/Chicago Mastering Service). Pressed on 180-gram heavyweight black vinyl, it captures the echoing space between the notes and the "sudden, thrilling blasts of unfettered fury" with absolute precision.

While the vinyl focuses on the original six-song masterpiece, this package provides a massive expansion via a digital download coupon. The coupon grants access to 14 bonus outtakes and demos personally selected by the band and mastered by Bob Weston, alongside digital files of the remastered album. It is a comprehensive, museum-quality tribute to an album that remains as intense and influential today as it was three decades ago.
