The textbook American cult band of the '80s, Violent Femmes captured the essence of teen angst with remarkable precision. 40 years on, their legacy remains strong. 'Add It Up (1981-1993)' documents the trailblazing trio's stylistic development as they rose to become one of alt-rock's most commercially successful acts. This 23-track compilation includes hits such as 'Blister in the Sun', 'American Music', and 'Gone Daddy Gone', plus live recordings of favourites like 'Add It Up' and 'Kiss Off', alongside a trove of demos, B-sides, interstitial voice recordings, and rarities. Available on vinyl for the first time since its brief initial pressing in 1993.
