Everclear Platinum LP Bundle (SHIPPING NOW!)

Everclear remains one of the few elite acts to emerge from the post-Nirvana grunge explosion, rockers that could not only match the crunch and aggression of Seattle’s finest, but the hooks and emotional honesty. Everclear’s Art Alexakis wrote songs that were a mature but hard rocking brand of power pop with gritty, achingly true lyrics about addiction, failed relationships and loneliness.
Sparkle and Fade was Everclear’s second release, and it broke HUGE, a platinum-selling smash with hit tunes like “Santa Monica,” “Heroin Girl” and “Heartspark Dollar Sign.”

The very title of 1997’s So Much for the Afterglow announced that Everclear would address head on the swelling expectations established by the breakout success of 1995’s Sparkle and Fade. The tunes sketch out this theme completely, with songs like “One Hit Wonder,” “White Men in Black Suits,” and of course the title track, “So Much for the Afterglow.”

So Much for the Afterglow is the rare follow-up that bested the original in both critical acclaim and sales, going double platinum, yielding three top-five hits and landing the band a Billboard Modern Rock Artist of the Year award in 1998.

Sparkle and Fade (1995)

Everclear's breakthrough second album, Sparkle and Fade, catapulted the band into the mainstream with its raw energy and emotionally charged lyrics. Released in 1995, this album was a defining moment of the post-grunge era, blending heavy guitar riffs with deeply personal themes of addiction, isolation, and the struggles of growing up. Anchored by the iconic hit "Santa Monica," which became a defining anthem of 90s rock, the album also features standout tracks like "Heroin Girl" and "Heartspark Dollar Sign."

This remastered version of Sparkle and Fade brings new clarity to the album’s emotional weight and sonic power, offering a fresh listening experience for both long-time fans and newcomers. Pressed on 180-gram vinyl for audiophile-quality sound, this album encapsulates the angst, ambition, and vulnerability that made Everclear one of the most compelling acts of their time.

So Much for the Afterglow (1997)

So Much for the Afterglow, Everclear’s third studio album, elevated the band’s success to new heights and solidified their place in alternative rock history. Released in 1997, this album explores the complexities of fame, failed relationships, and the longing for something more, all wrapped in a polished yet gritty sound. The title track sets the tone, with its infectious melody and introspective lyrics, while songs like "One Hit Wonder" and "White Men in Black Suits" showcase the band’s signature mix of punk energy and pop sensibility.

The album's combination of biting social commentary and catchy hooks earned it widespread critical acclaim and commercial success, achieving double-platinum status. This remastered edition breathes new life into its timeless sound, pressed on pristine 180-gram vinyl to capture every nuance of Art Alexakis’ powerful songwriting and the band’s dynamic performances.
