That Dog – Retreat From the Sun – Vinyl Record

Description

Originally conceived as a solo album from frontwoman Anna Waronker, the 1997 third studio LP fromThat Dogarrived polished, constructed and aerodynamic for the late 90’s post-grunge haze it emerged from. While gems like “Hawthorne” quaintly imagine punk rock shows in car garages and “Minneapolis” recalls the “I only saw her for one second” ephemeral beauty ofCitizen Kane, the album itself traverses a myriad of emotions and counts among its fans both Pat Smear and the Vivian Girls. And it includes appearances bySteve McDonald(Redd Kross),Charlotte Caffey(The Go-Go’s) andTanya Haden(The Haden Triplets) to boot! Touring in support of the record hadThat Dogsharing stages with the likes of Counting Crows, The Wallflowers and Blur. A deep interview by Matt Pinfield on MTV’s 120 Minutes provided prime underground exposure. Boosted by a glossy music video, “Never Say Never” even found its way onto the Billboard Modern Rock charts. While a picture disc version of alternate mixes was self-released by the band 2017, this is thefirst-ever vinyl releaseof this album.
