Time Expired (Cacophony Splatter Vinyl) [Box Set]

At the turn of the century and after three albums, Karate s tenure within the insular east coast indie rock scene had expired, but the band was just getting started. Collected here is the band s spacious, adventurous, and sometimes difficult second half presented in fastidious detail. This five LP box includes the trio s Unsolved double LP (including 3 previously unissued period appropriate tracks), Some Boots, and Pockets albums, plus a first time vinyl pressing of their Cancel/Sing EP, all annotated by Geoff Farina s account of Karate s adulthood and Andy Hong s insights into the trio s recording process.
