Product description

Dive into the raw and energetic world of Violent Femmes with their album "Why Do Birds Sing?" released on October 8, 2021, under Craft Recordings. This folk punk masterpiece spans a generous 1 hour and 54 minutes, offering a rich tapestry of both studio recordings and live performances. The album kicks off with the iconic "American Music" and takes you through a rollercoaster of tracks like "Out The Window," "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me," and "Girl Trouble," showcasing the band's signature blend of raw emotion and punk energy. The live tracks from The Boathouse in 1991, including "Look Like That" and "Blister In The Sun," capture the band's electrifying stage presence and bring you closer to the heart of their music. With a mix of early versions, alternate mixes, and live performances, "Why Do Birds Sing?" is a comprehensive journey through the evolution of Violent Femmes, making it a must-experience for both longtime fans and new listeners alike.

This 2021 Limited Edition Reissue LP is pressed on Gray vinyl.

    Great press! It's got a strong punch, spins perfectly flat, and there's hardly any surface noise. 5/5

  • Red Vinyl Sound Quality

    kagizblMay 23, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I recently received a copy from Craft Recordings in the USA, and it's on red vinyl. It's also labeled CR00465 with the barcode 888072269187. The back cover states it's Made in the U.S.A. The sound quality is absolutely amazing.

  • Music and Friends

    5 out of 5 stars
    beles252May 6, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Driving around in Diller's Bug with Po, the three of us belting out every song on this album with all our souls, is a memory I'll always treasure. Life wasn't always a walk in the park in the middle of nowhere, but having great friends and real music definitely made it more bearable.

  • Memories with Friends and Music

    5 out of 5 stars
    bomav682May 2, 2025United States🇺🇸

    Driving around in Diller's Beetle with Po, belting out every single song on this album, all three of us pouring our hearts into it—those are memories I'll always treasure. Life in the middle of nowhere wasn't a walk in the park, but having great friends and real music by our side made all the difference.

About Violent Femmes

Violent Femmes, the pioneering folk punk trio hailing from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, have been crafting their unique, jittery, and darkly comical sound since their formation in 1980. Founded by guitarist and vocalist Gordon Gano, bassist Brian Ritchie, and drummer Victor De Lorenzo, the band's name itself is a contradiction in terms, reflecting their genre-defying music. With a career spanning over four decades, Violent Femmes have become a pillar of the American underground movement, known for their powerfully catchy tunes and neurotic energy. Their iconic track "Blister in the Sun" is just one of the many gems in their discography that has left an indelible mark on music. Catch them live on their upcoming tour dates for an unforgettable performance.
