Silverstein Announces Reissue For ‘When Broken Is Easily Fixed,’ Plus North American Tour Dates
The band will also hit the road this fall, starting November 4 in Cleveland, Ohio.
Craft Recordings has announced a special vinyl reissue of Silverstein’s best-selling debut, When Broken Is Easily Fixed. Originally released in 2003 on Victory Records, the title has become an emo classic, and features such favorites as “Giving Up” and “Smashed into Pieces.” The reissue is in stores on July 9th and available for pre-order today.
The newly remastered album is pressed on 180-gram, canary yellow vinyl and housed in a tip-on jacket, and a limited-edition yellow marble vinyl can be found exclusively at Silverstein’s webstore.
Reflecting on the band’s new relationship with Concord, bassist Billy Hamilton says, “When Craft Recordings took over the Victory Records back catalog, they reached out to discuss reissuing our first four albums. We figured the best place to start was at the beginning, with 2003’s When Broken Is Easily Fixed. Back when we signed with Victory, we insisted that we wanted all of our albums pressed on vinyl. I was just getting into collecting vinyl around this time and was excited to get my hands on our first LP pressed to wax. We released just over 500 copies pressed on marble gray and translucent blue-colored vinyl with hand-silkscreened covers. At that point, we barely thought we would ever sell 500 copies of the album, let alone the roughly 250,000 that it eventually did.”
Silverstein’s When Broken Is Easily Fixed is available for pre-order.
