Devil's Road - Deluxe Edition

Deluxe Reissue of their 1996 classic with re-worked and extended artwork plus a bonus CD containing five unreleased tracks of that period. In 1992 The Walkabouts and Sub Pop split but the band joined forces with Sub Pop Europe represented by Glitterhouse Records in Beverungen, Germany. After releasing two albums - 'Devil's Road' (1996) and 'Nighttown' (1997) - with Virgin Records, The Walkabouts returned again to their home Glitterhouse and have remained their from 1999 until today. In 1996 'Devil's Road' saw the light of day as the first of their two albums recorded for Virgin Records. Based on the higher production budget that the major-label provided, the band realized their long held dream and added string arrangements to their somber Folk-Country ballads and dust-dry mid-tempo rockers. In cooperation with arranger Mark Nichols and the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra the strings were recorded in a radio studio in Warsaw that was still very Eastern Block. 'Devil's Road' is another cornerstone on the never ending road the band has followed in search of the perfect song. Vinyl - A two-LP set (180 gram heavyweight vinyl, gatefold sleeve) plus two CDs CD - Double CD set that comes in a multifold digipak with 16 page booklet.
