10th anniversary reissue. Limited to 1000 copies worldwide. It was the mid 'aughts and this band called The Pack came out of nowhere with some dirt and booze flavoured garage rock and the world made them put "a.d." at the end of their name to signify that things would never be the same. Soon after recording their debut album, Tintype, the band came over to the Mint offices with a bottle of Jack Daniels and walked out of there with a record contract. Tintype came out shortly after in the middle of a grey January in 2008. A decade later the band has played close to a thousand shows and released seven albums. Their music still feels like a cup of black coffee that you drank too fast (why is my leg moving like that?) but along the way Tintype fell out of print. We've decided to fix that. Tintype is finally being re-issued on the format it was meant to be heard... vinyl. We had it re-mastered by Stuart McKillop at Rain City Recorders and we dug through some dusty boxes for old flyers and photos to include in the liner notes to make it extra special and remind you of what you missed or can't remember. The Pack a.d. is going back on the road this fall. You'll be able to get the limited edition gold vinyl version of Tintype from them at all of their shows as well as some special anniversary party in-stores at our favourite record shops. Drummer Maya Miller on the album: "Tintype was such an odd experience to dig back into because I barely recognize the people we were then. The album really captures a very raw and earnest Pack and frankly, I think it's charming."
