Description
Third Eye Blind will celebrate the 20-year anniversary of its eponymous debut this summer with an expanded version of the multi-platinum album that includes several unreleased recordings. 3eb made a splash in 1997 when the San Francisco alt-rockers scored a #1 Modern Rock hit with the groups debut single, Semi-Charmed Life. Later that year, it was named Modern Rock Track of the Year at the Billboard Music Awards. For this special anniversary edition, the band recently recorded Alright Caroline and Scattered, two songs that were written for the Third Eye Blind album, but were never fully realized in the studio until now.
THIRD EYE BLIND: 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION features unreleased demos for the album track Semi-Charmed Life and Kiss Goodnight, which was later reworked as Ode To Maybe for the bands sophomore album, Blue (1999). Also included is the bands cover of the Velvet Underground classic Heroin, as well as an early version of Slow Motion that includes the songs lyrics. The controversial track about the medias glorification of violence was released as an instrumental on Blue. A full version with lyrics did not surface until 2006, when it appeared on A Collection, a greatest hits compilation released by Rhino.
