Soul Asylum - Let Your Dim Light Shine

Released in 1995 as the highly anticipated follow-up to the cultural phenomenon Grave Dancers Union, Let Your Dim Light Shine proved that Soul Asylum was far more than just a one-hit wonder. This record saw the Minneapolis veterans doubling down on their signature blend of gritty heartland rock and polished alternative melodies, catapulting them to another platinum certification and solidifying their place in the 90s rock pantheon.

Produced by the legendary Butch Vig—the sonic architect behind Nirvana's Nevermind and Smashing Pumpkins' Siamese Dream—the album boasts a massive, crisp production that remains a highlight of the band's 40-year career. It features the top-charting hit "Misery," a song so synonymous with 1995 culture that it was famously parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic. From the grunge-tinged energy of "Just Like Anyone" to the emotional resonance of "Promises Broken," the album captures the band at the height of their powers.

This 30th Anniversary Edition is a true collector’s artifact, limited to just 2,000 individually numbered copies worldwide. Pressed on 180g audiophile-grade "flaming" colored vinyl, the record is housed in a deluxe sleeve with a linen laminate finish, including a printed insert. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Dave Pirner’s soulful growl or a student of the Butch Vig production school, this definitive pressing is the ultimate way to experience a cornerstone of the alternative era.
