The Black Album / Come On Feel The Dandy Warhols is a 2004 double album released by American alternative band, The Dandy Warhols. The two-disc set was released on their own Beat the World Records label. Initially, the album was only available to purchase through the band's website. [1] It is now available to own via other sources.
Overview
Disc one marks the first, official release of the band's 1996 demo album (The Black Album) which was described as "lost". [2] The album, recorded before ...The Dandy Warhols Come Down, was rejected by Capitol Records and dismissed by the band themselves. [2] Three songs that were included on the original recording of the album are not included on this release, namely: " Traci Lords", "Alien" and "You Get High". [1]
The second disc (Come On Feel The Dandy Warhols) is the first compilation album released by the band. It contains B-sides, covers, and previously unreleased material. [3] Glide Magazine stated that the cover of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young's " Ohio" used "droning synthesizers" to produce an "alt/ psychedelia sound." [4]
