hard to find: singles and unreleased 2000 - 2005
Is this really a new American Analog Set release? Yes! Sort of.
In 2001 we released a cd compilation of rare, vinyl only, and unreleased material called Through the 90’s. Today, the companion release, Hard To Find is available electronically from your favorite mp3 source including iTunes, Amazon, eMusic, Rhapsody and so forth. It is meant to represent the Tigerstyle and Arts + Crafts era material in the same way that Through the 90’s represented the Emperor Jones era releases.
Many of our favorite moments were only available on limited-edition vinyl or were given to magazine compilations or were saved for 7-inches that were never released. They’re all available here on Hard To Find. The cornerstone of the compilation is a tour-only 4-song 12” that sold out along our last tour in 2005. The EP featured 4 longer and more “classically AmAnSet” versions of Set Free standouts Cool Kids Keep, First Of Four, Green Green Grass and Everything Ends. The singles compilation also features guest artists and long time AmAnSet boosters Matt Pond and Ben Gibbard who lend their lovely voices to Sharp Briar and All I Want For Christmas respectively.
Enjoy!!
