Sub Pop are to re-release all their Earth catalogue on May 23rd - on CD and vinyl.
So that's:
"Extra-Capsular Extraction" "Earth 2" "Phase 3: Thrones And Dominions" "Pentastar: In The Style Of Demons"
Obviously "Earth 2" is an absolutely vital addition in any collection... ...you know what to do!!

Just 30 seconds?! - not much happens in an Earth track for it to be captured in that time!
I guess that some might find Earth a bit of a gamble, particularly if they haven't been exposed to this kind of metal before. But if you've heard the likes of Sunn O))), then you shouldn't have a problem. "Earth 2" is the one to get, although "Pentastar" is a good starting point, as well. "Hex" may not be fully representative of the classic Earth sound, but is still a very good album, and shows where the band are now. I've never really got on with "Phase 3", though.

Just 30 seconds?! - not much happens in an Earth track for it to be captured in that time! that's exactly the impression i got... and i'm not willing to pay 99 cents to hear more (as opposed to buying an actual entire album)... i'll probably end up picking up whichever the local record shop has on hand... thanks yo... -Rob F.
