Bush – “Razorblade Suitcase (In Addition)” – Twenty four years ago, BUSH bravely followed up their 1994 multi-platinum juggernaut of a debut, ‘Sixteen Stone’, with a darker, more cerebral sophomore effort in ‘Razorblade Suitcase’. Produced by Steve Albini and recorded at London’s Abbey Road Studios, the album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, selling 293,000 copies during it’s first week of release in the US and staying alive with hit singles “Greedy Fly” and “Swallowed”. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of this 3x platinum album, the band has announced a deluxe, remastered LP edition titled ‘Razorblade Suitcase (In Addition)’ via ROUND HILL/ZUMA ROCK RECORDS. In addition to the original remastered album, the reissue will also include four rare bonus tracks: “Old”, “Broken TV”, “Bubbles”, and “Sleeper” on a double ‘Black’ and ‘White’ AsideBside vinyl color. The metallic foil jacket features reinterpreted artwork by designer Shaun Durkan, and a fold out poster with never-before-printed lyrics and album liner notes from producer Steve Albini.

Bush were criticized from most quarters of the music press for sounding too much like Nirvana on their debut album, Sixteen Stone, so in order to shed all of the comparisons, well, they hired producer Steve Albini (Nirvana, Pixies, PJ Harvey) and proceeded to record their own version of Nirvana’s dark, difficult In Utero. Actually, Razorblade Suitcase, Bush’s second album, cribs heavily from two of Albini’s best productions, In Utero and Pixies’ Surfer Rosa — they even hired Vaughan Oliver, the designer behind Surfer Rosa, to do the artwork. Albini helped make the band sound tougher by stripping away the layers of effects and concentrating on a hard, driving rhythm and stop-start dynamics. Although lacking in memorable hooks, Razorblade Suitcase is more pleasing and visceral on the surface. – Stephen Thomas Erlewine
