CHISEL – Set You Free – 25th Anniversary Edition – 2LP – Silver Vinyl [MAR 3]

2LP – Limited Edition 25th Anniversary Remastered Edition on Silver Vinyl. Includes booklet of lyrics, photos, and an essay by Jes Skolnik.

In late 1996, after two years of persistent touring, Chisel was eager to document its quickly evolving sound. Decamping from their native D.C. to Brooklyns Rare Book Room, the power trio of Ted Leo, Chris Norborg, and John Dugan teamed with engineer Nicolas Vernhes and came away with Set You Free , a remarkable, but largely overlooked, classic of the era.

Originally issued on the venerable Gern Blandsten imprint in April 1997, Set You Free presaged the turn of the century 60s rock revival, providing a counterpoint to second-wave emo. This deluxe 25th anniversary edition has remastered and expanded the originals 17-song track list with five period alternates and rarities, plus a booklet of lyrics, photos, and an essay by Jes Skolnik. Get ready for the invasion.
