Redd Kross' 35th anniversary 2LP edition of Neurotica to be issued with bonus demos!

The newly remastered double-LP version of Redd Kross's 1987 classic Neurotica comes with 12 previously unissued demos. 

Here's the scoop from Redd Kross HQ...

Today we are ecstatic to officially announce the 35th anniversary edition reissue of our beloved NEUROTICA. And baby it’s coming down FAST.  For the purist and newbies alike, we’ve gone back to the original master mixes done by producer Tommy Erdelyi (Tommy Ramone) RIP and had them remastered by JJ Golden of Golden Mastering.  With an outstanding double disc layout by long time co-conspirator Jon Krop and with many never before seen John Scarpati images.  Also included is the original Neurotica demos recorded at Spinhead Studios by the late Phil Newman.  Further details from the fine folks at Merge Records below;

Merge Records is thrilled to release the 35th anniversary edition of Neurotica, the 1987 power pop and alternative rock opus by Redd Kross, on June 24, 2022. The reissue contains the original album, remastered by JJ Golden (Pearl Jam, Thee Oh Sees), as well as 12 previously unreleased demos from the era (rediscovered recently in the archives of the band’s original A&R guy, Geoffrey Weiss).

This special edition of Neurotica will be available worldwide on a single CD as well as 2-LP—the album on translucent turquoise, the demos on translucent orange—housed in in a slick gatefold jacket. Exclusive to the Merge store is a new Neurotica t-shirt, which can be purchased on its own or bundled with the vinyl or CD. Redd Kross completists should check out our Neurotica superbundle that includes both formats of the album plus the t-shirt at a discount.

Today, the remastered version of Neurotica is available on digital service providers for the first time:
