Product Details

Rhett Miller, Murry Hammond, Ken Bethea, and Philip Peeples were still cutting their teeth on the Dallas bar circuit when they laid down these tracks, but *Wreck Your Life* already had the serrated twang and desperate velocity that would make the Old 97's one of the defining acts of the alt-country movement. Coming out on Bloodshot just as that Chicago label was becoming the genre's most important address, this record sits right at the moment before the breakthrough.

Wreck Your Life documents a band hitting it's stride, the confidence growing as quickly as the crowds, and this 1995 classic holds up beautifully. True punk mettle fearlessly cross-bred with deep country soul. Limited edition 180 gram heavyweight LP is the first time ever this stone-cold classic has been available as a stand-alone vinyl release!
