BLACK VINYL VERSION!
With 2007s Here We Stand, legendary punk rockers Cock Sparrer moved into
the 21st Century, and staked their claim on an exciting new era for the
band.Never content to simply rest on the considerable laurels of their
back catalog, the first Sparrer studio album since the 1997 not only put
a new release into the hands of the old faithful and new fans alike,
but kicked off a renewed period of active international touring and
headlining festival appearances that has continued to this very day.
And while the band may sing of the "Spirit of '76" on one of the album's
best-loved songs, don't think for a second that this record is about
sentimental nostalgia. As with all of the band's best work, the songs on
Here We Stand are remarkably timeless, with Cock Sparrer always moving
forward, facing the future, and carrying that spirit onward to tomorrow.
Mixed by Rancid's Lars Frederiksen, the album gave the band a new lease
of life and the occasional gigs and shows that had preceded the release
then turned into a regular gigging which continues to this day.
This gold-sleeved version, on 180gram black vinyl is remastered in
celebration of the bands 50th anniversary, bringing to the table the
best-sounding and classiest-looking version of this album to date.
