Overview

Disc one marks the first, official release of the band's 1996 demo album (The Black Album) which was described as "lost". [2] The album, recorded before ...The Dandy Warhols Come Down , was rejected by Capitol Records and dismissed by the band themselves. [2] Three songs that were included on the original recording of the album are not included on this release, namely: "Traci Lords", "Alien" and "You Get High". [1]

The second disc (Come On Feel The Dandy Warhols) is the first compilation album released by the band. It contains B-sides, covers, and previously unreleased material. [3] Glide Magazine stated that the cover of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's "Ohio" used "droning synthesizers" to produce an "alt/psychedelia sound." [4]
