L7 – Smell The Magic (Vinyl)
$54.00
Regular price $40.002020 was the 30th anniversary of L7's second album, 'Smell the Magic', which was released on Sub Pop and is now celebrated as a breakthrough 'feminist rock' album. This is when L7 began to find the sense of melody to complement their distorted punk guitar assault. The band became infamous for the 'Reading Festival tampon lobbing incident' and for guitarist/vocalist Donita Sparks fanny-flashing TV performances.
'Smell the Magic' was one of the fiercest, heaviest most punk rock record many US fans had heard....and, arguably, it still is. The fabulous "Fast and Frightening" is a ripping anthem, "Shove" pleads the case for mosh pit etiquette, while "Just Like Me" demands equal rights (and vices) for male and female rock stars. "Till the Wheels Fall Off" is another standout, thanks to its relentless descending riff, and points the way toward the band's breakthrough album, 'Bricks Are Heavy'.
Tracklist:
A1 Shove
A2 Fast And Frightening
A3 (Right On) Thru
A4 Deathwish
A5 'Til The Wheels Fall Off
B1 Broomstick
B2 Packin' A Rod
B3 Just Like Me
B4 American Society

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
