After being reissued on vinyl earlier this year, the late Rowland S. Howard's legendary 1999 debut solo album, 'Teenage Snuff Film', will get another vinyl re-issue (this time available in aqua and black dust colour).
Recently remastered, 'Teenage Snuff Film' featured longtime colleague and collaborator Mick Harvey contributing drums, organ and guitar, and Brian Hooper on bass.With the black vinyl selling out instantly, this reissue will be highly sought after by collectors.
Rowland is an absolute treasure of Australia's post-punk scene, first with Young Charlatans, then alongside Nick Cave and Mick Harvey in The Boys Next Door and The Birthday Party. He also played in These Immortal Souls and Crime & The City Solution.
"Rowland S. Howard conjured these dark musical worlds that weren't always easy to live in, but every word and note of them rang true – and they always made you feel something," Spoon's Britt Daniel says.
"'Teenage Snuff Film' is full of tension and despair and strange, haunting guitar. It's a classic, like nothing else."
While Against Me!'s Laura Jane Grace adds: "Forget the Prince of Darkness, Rowland S. Howard is the true sultan of heartbreak, loss and regret."
Rowland S. Howard passed away on December 30, 2009, from liver cancer. He was 50.
'Teenage Snuff Film' aqua and black dust colour vinyl re-issue is available from 2 October, 2020. Click here to pre-order.
