The Replacements are Back(sort of)
Today marks the release of The Replacements-Don't You Know Who I Think I Was? The Best of Replacements. Your response might be something like mine. Didn't they already put a Best of retrospective out?
Yes they did it was called All for Nothing/Nothing For All , a 2 disc affair that focused on the bands Sire releases as well as full disc of B-sides/outtakes. Where Don't you know differs is that it combines the Twin Tone and Sire releases as well as 2 new tracks recorded by the remaining or surviving members earlier this year. This won't be a reunion or a new beginning sadly, but it will be another testament of how great The Replacements were.
The songs don't lie.

Today also see the release of new records from Sonic Youth, Six Organs of admittance, and The Futureheads.
