Release Notes:

More than just a fresh coat of paint, HOUSE OF VIBES
REVISITED is a home improvement of the highest
order. With meticulous precision, the band The
Village Voice called "The natural progression from
the Who to the Jam to Oasis" spent a year remixing
and re-imagining its acclaimed 1994 debut (House of
Vibes) for the 21st Century. THE GRIP WEEDS have
created a reissue with bonuses galore. Aside from
the newly remixed tracks, HOUSE OF VIBES REVISITED
features demos showing works in progress, sometimes
markedly different from the final versions, and
several tracks broadcast live on the radio from 1994
and 1995, plus band interviews and unreleased
archival photos.

HOUSE OF VIBES REVISITED

"Salad Days," the lead single from HOUSE OF VIBES
REVISITED, was just proclaimed "The Coolest Song in
the World" on the immensely popular nationally
syndicated radio show, Little Steven's Underground
Garage.

For HOUSE OF VIBES REVISITED, the band updated
original multi-tracks using digital technology in a
way not even possible just a few years ago. The
dramatic and sometimes astonishing sonic difference
allows listeners to hear the music the way the band
always wanted but only now does technology allow
them to achieve. Back then in the pre-digital era,
THE GRIP WEEDS were at the forefront of the home
recording movement, a benchmark of the band's
longstanding dedication to independence through the
DIY process.

Long out of print, the original House of Vibes was
hailed by Goldmine as "loaded with cool songs that
are sometimes trippy, sometimes poppy, sometimes
garagy, but always appealingly structured and highly
melodic... definitely a road worth traveling...quite
a triumph." Featuring an impressive blend of
Beatle-esque sensibilities fused with rock edginess,
the bandÆs trademark lush harmonies and high caliber
songwriting, the original release put THE GRIP WEEDS
on the map.

"The original album was the turning point for us,
where everything crystallized," says Kurt. "Kristin
joined the band, it was our first full-length
effort, and it was the start of our methodology and
way of working."
