Like probably about 99% of cats my age, i found out about The Vaselines through the Nirvana covers on "Incesticide" and "Unplugged in New York." Naturally, i was hooked. They weren't around for long, but their style has been copped and covered by hundreds of bands. Over the course of their short career (the duo broke up in 1989) they released only one LP and a couple singles, but still demand attention. Since then, a host of different labels have re-issued this work in retrospective form, most recently Sub Pop. Well, sound the trumpets! At long last, after more than 20 years, The Vaselines are releasing a new LP entitled "Sex with an X" on September 14th. Go here to get a free download of the tune, "I Hate The 80's."About Me
