{"product_id":"velocity-girl-1989-1992","title":"Velocity Girl - 1989-1992","description":"\u003cp\u003eGetting their start as the 1980s bled into the 90s, Velocity Girl arose from a new pop underground that had been percolating in Washington, DC and it's suburbs, a group of bands clustered around our then-nascent Slumberland Records who broadened DC's punk paradigm with an ear for pop songs and feedback-driven racket. Velocity Girl, blessed with multiple gifted songwriters, particularly knew how to merge euphoric pop hooks with waves of noisy bliss and lovelorn melancholy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis new compilation \"1989-1992\" covers the band's pre-Sub Pop years and shows that their skill with a tune was there from the beginning, across several line-up changes and numerous early releases. The all-time classic \"Forgotten Favorite\" is included, as is their debut single \"I Don't Care If You Go,\" featuring original vocalist Bridget Cross (later of Unrest). There are also crucial split single and compilation contributions, a few choice covers (Beat Happening, The Jam) and even a pair of unreleased tunes. Newly remastered and featuring extensive liner notes by DC scene scholar John R. Davis, \"1989-1992\" is the comprehensive view of their early years that Velocity Girl has long deserved and their fans have long wanted.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 Clock\u003cbr\u003e2 I Don't Care If You Go\u003cbr\u003e3 Always\u003cbr\u003e4 Not at All\u003cbr\u003e5 I Don't Care If You Go (Acoustic)\u003cbr\u003e6 I Know Exactly What You Mean\u003cbr\u003e7 That's Entertainment\u003cbr\u003e8 What You Say\u003cbr\u003e9 Tales of Brave Aphrodite\u003cbr\u003e10 Forgotten Favorite\u003cbr\u003e11 Why Should I Be Nice to You?\u003cbr\u003e12 Warm\/Crawl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Slumberland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50072240226442,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0361\/4955\/9434\/files\/6640532-6e7d1639c9bf4c99a3adff39c91699eb.jpg?v=1787350911","url":"https:\/\/afkbooksandrecords.com\/products\/velocity-girl-1989-1992","provider":"AFK Books \u0026 Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
