Chapter 4 Bundle includes:
- Karate, Unsolved CD
- Elysium, Glisten CD
- The Appleseed Cast, Two Conversations CD

NUM906: Karate - Unsolved

As Warped Tour pop-punk and American Apparel indie rock dominated the strange post-Y2K guitar-band milieu, Boston’s Karate delivered an engrossing shot of rock that constantly shifted between several shades of subterranean sounds. The quiet moments on Karate’s millennium busting fourth album carry much of that old, unbridled intensity, braided into subdued jazz melodies and slowcore restraint. Karate’s transition into rock maturity bore supple fruit with Unsolved, presented here with three rehearsal tracks, never before on CD.

NUM989: Elysium - glisten

Crashing on American shores in a gothic fit of FauxAD melancholy, ethereal wave was the scene that celebrated its own stillbirth. Among the nonre's pinnacle works is Elysium's lone album Glisten, which arrived on compact disc under the Dewdrops Records banner in 1995. Come for the lush and atmospheric cooings of Jenny Adams, stay for the clean-tone precision of Rodney Rodriguez. Is this heaven or Los Angeles?

NUM993: The Appleseed Cast - Two Conversations

The break up concept album no one asked for, The Appleseed Cast arrived on Tiger Style in 2003 amidst a second wave emo backlash. Decades later, Two Conversations is widely considered the Lawrence, Kansas, quintet's crowning achievement, an atmospheric soul baring that eschews the Midwest varietal's tropes. Back on CD for the first time since 2003, with bonus track "The State That I Was In." Get lost in the dreamy keys and synths and steel string strums, just be home before curfew.
