House Of Ill Fame Boxset

Album Details

Casewrapped Box Set. Acclaimed Canadian rock band The Trews introduced their magnetic and massive sound on the full-length debut album, House Of Ill Fame, in 2003. Drawing on rock, pop, punk, and metal, the band took over radio in Canada with 'Not Ready To Go', and twenty years and a Canadian Platinum certification later, the songs still pack their original punch. Upon release, Sputnik Music raved "All of the songs are great, spectacular even. And many have an insanely catchy beat to them, making this possibly one of the best rock records in a while." The album kickstarted an incredible journey for the band.

Always renowned for their energy on stage, this 20th Anniversary Box Set brings together the original record on vinyl with a second LP ("Trews Alive") featuring cuts from two live shows from late summer 2004 - Event In The Tent and Wakestock - The Trews at their most electrifying! The box also includes the brand new "Bits & Pieces" CD - 22 tracks of previously unreleased songs, demos, and alternate takes. Topped off with a 24-page book overflowing with tour photos, newspaper cut-outs, gig posters, lyrics, and writings from John-Angus himself, as well as Canada's preeminent authority on rock, Alan Cross, this box set is an absolute must on the shelf of any serious collector.
