about

Dear Dead Delila's original 4-track demo that went a step beyond in actually selling a good number of copies, more than the true studio recordings ever did, for that matter. The original 12 songs have been fully digitized, along with live versions of 11 of the tracks plus demo versions of 3.

The live versions were taken from the band's first 2 shows, both at The Attic in Greenville, NC. The track sequence of the original album is used, so the night of performance jumps back and forth a few times (hey, we used the better-sounding take of each song with no regard for continuity - get over it).

After a private party for their third show, they ruled the world by the fourth, ha, however no recording of those shows exists, alas.
