Make-Up Sound Verite Back on Vinyl!




You have been waiting for it, anticipating it and now your impatience is rewarded: the K Mail Order Dept. is serving up the Make-Up album Sound Verite [KLP064] on vinyl LP for the first time in one million years.

Originally released in 1997, Sound Verite was the result of Make-Up interrupting their cross-country tour with a stop-off in Olympia, WA to record with Calvin Johnson at Dub Narcotic Studio. They'd recorded a Dub Narcotic Disco Plate" R U a Believer" [DBN106] and were ready for more.
When Make-Up arrived they had no songs, not many ideas. Fortunately, Calvin had one of his own: he asked them to jingle the change in their pockets while he held a microphone up to their crotches and voilà, an album was born. The ace photogs above and below capturing the moment of Verite conception were taken by perennial Olympian Jeff Smith.

You can pre-order a vinyl copy of Make-Up Sound Verite [KLP064] for yourself, to be shipped on December 18 HERE.
