“Delaware is the debut studio album by American band Drop Nineteens released on June 19, 1992. Despite the album’s release over 30 years ago, and the band remaining inactive from 1993 onwards this album has remained a favorite of shoegaze fans for decades, and was listed as one of the 50 best shoegaze albums of all time by Pitchfork in 2016. This lasting love of the record has cemented the band as one of the most influential bands of the genre from their time. Over the last several years the album has found a new audience that has championed Delaware alongside of the bands mostly UK 90s contemporaries. A new legion of Drop Nineteens fans have likely discovered their music through streaming services, rather than on 120 Minutes. Tracks like the towering ‘Kick The Tragedy’ and pop songs ‘Winona’ & ‘Delaware’ sit next to more experimental moments like ‘Reberrymemberer.’ And while the album is certainly a wild ride, it all flows together as easily as singers Greg Ackell and Paula Kelleys vocals. Now for the first time, this record will be available via a USA pressing on yellow colored vinyl. Remastered for vinyl by Carl Saff.” – Wharf Cat Records
