VARIANT: Coke Bottle Clear Vinyl LP
Formed in Seattle in the early Nineties and featuring Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard and former Malfunkshun drummer Regan Hagar, Brad were destined to be called a "grunge" band. But their alt-rock sound stood apart from the guitar-heavy bombast of that revolutionary movement, taking a mellower, funkier, more psychedelic approach. Their cult classic 1993 debut LP, Shame, is the ideal starting place, and owning it on colored vinyl is a must for grunge completionists and guitar-crunch lovers alike.
BRAD Featuring Shawn Smith and Stone Gossard reissue of classic 1993 album SHAME. This 30th Anniversary album has been remastered. Recorded in October 1992 in 17 days at Avast Recording in Seattle Washington. featuring soft, nocturnal rock, giddy rhythms and glossy funk jams. Smith is an unusual vocalist even without the grunge influences of Brad’s circle of friends, like Gossard and Jeff Ament’s Green River or Regan and Andrew Wood’s Malfunkshun, Smith’s honeyed falsetto starts to sound like the song of another species altogether.
