NIRVANA
Bleach: Deluxe Edition - SP834
Marking the 20th Anniversary of Nirvana’s debut album, Sub Pop will re-issue the Platinum Certified Bleach on November 3, 2009. This expanded CD/double-LP will include a never-before-released live performance, special packaging and the first run of the double-LP will be on 180g white vinyl (the first run of the original LP was also on white vinyl). Both formats will be available for pre-order here at subpop.com leading up to this edition’s release.
Originally recorded over three sessions with producer Jack Endino at Seattle’s Reciprocal Recording Studios in December 1988 and January 1989, Bleach was released in June of ‘89 and remains unequivocally/unsurprisingly Sub Pop’s very favorite Nirvana full-length. The album initially sold 40,000 copies, but was brought into the international spotlight following the release and worldwide success of their 1991 sophomore effort, Nevermind. Subsequently Bleach went on to sell 1.7 million copies in the US alone, according to Nielsen SoundScan. This 20th Anniversary Edition has been re-mastered from the original tapes at Sterling Sound in a session overseen by producer Jack Endino.
This edition will include an unreleased live recording of a complete February 9th, 1990 show at the Pine Street Theatre in Portland, Oregon. The show features performances of “Love Buzz,” “About a Girl” and a cover of The Vaselines’ song “Molly’s Lips” and has been re-mixed from the original tapes by Endino (complete track listing below). A 52-page CD /16-page LP booklet which includes candid photos of the band not previously released to the public will also be included in this deluxe edition.
A notice to Vinyl-buyers: this is a very weighty collection of records and images and nice packaging. What I’m clumsily saying is, if you’re in America, choose UPS shipping as your shipping method. It’s going to be more cost-effective than USPS (unless you’re in the Seattle area).
Released: 2009-11-03 (CD), 2009-11-03 (2xLP)

So here we are...
with “early September” come and gone. Come on Sub Pop! Pre-order time!
Tick tock, Tick tock....
All I have to say is that these “goodies” mentioned in the post from Sub Pop better be good since we are still waiting for the pre-order. Can we at least get an update on pre-ordering??? CD and LP!!!!
AMAZON!
I just happened to check amazon and the pre-order is up there. Can’t wait for the double lp
Sub Pop!
I would like to get some pre-order goodies, but if you guys don’t have the pre-order up soon, I’m going to go through amazon, just so I can forget about this for a little while.
AMAZING
I am so excited! Its about effing time!
Feed me
Feed me this preorder
Ehhh?
No pre-order goodies??
stumped
how do i order the “per-order”?
Why only payment option credit card?
I waited forever to finally be able to pre-order this just to find out that the only payment option here is credit card? These aren’t as familiar here in Germany as in the states and in times of PayPal etc. Where’s the problem to offer another payment option? It really saddens me to be not able to pre-order this :-(
its up!
preorder is up people!
This made my day.
This made my day. Just pre-ordered the vinyl. Happy times infinity. Blogging about it.
White Vinyl?
Will everyone who preorders likely receive the white vinyl version, or are those long gone?
that was my 2nd Nirvana show....
and they were opening for the Screaming Trees (god bless them forever and ever, amen) that night.
Wow—super stoked to get this….
What about Europe
Will the LP version be available in Europe as well?
If yes, where can I pre-order it?
so do we get the $ 2 off, cause i was charged allready
so if we preordered before do we still get the $2 off and the stickers? I was charged already and didnt get the $ 2 off.
Discount ... huh ???
Yep, I’ve ordered Bleach (and been billed for the full price already) as well. I ordered the album the day you sent me the e-mail about it (i.e. 13th Oct) and now your offering a discount and stickers a week later?? Don’t want to sound like a penny pinchin’ tight arse, but that sucks a bit.
YES! NIRVANA!
I love Nirvana! I cant wait 4 this cd to come out. R.I.P Kurt Cobain…
@Christo72&Tremlock
don’t be too upset, they aren’t actually upholding the offer for the $2 discount (unless the price listed already accounts for the discounted price). I just pre-ordered today and was charged $12+s/h…
Pine St. Theater
My office sits about 1/4 mile from the Pine St. Theater. It would be wonderful if somehow someone breathed life back into that building, as it has sat unoccupied for some time now. How is it that legitimate pieces of Portland’s impressive music history go unappreciated for so long while shitholes like the Crystal Ballroom stay open? Is there any way to bring back the Pine St. Theater? Does anyone but me give a shit?
yeah, that discount...
What’s with that? I ordered a while ago too. Was it cheaper or not?
And I must admit that I feel kind of ripped off for not ordering from Amazon… (they would have shipped it for free too…)
I thought I had to order early to get a white one… but it doesn’t sound that way anymore. Are all of them white?
And does anyone else realize that Nirvana is “on tour”? Oh, Sub Pop…
SUB POP GAVE IT TO ME A WEEK EARLY
thanks sub pop i just received this 5 days early its awesome the concert is awesome , the book is awesome and so are the stickers that came with haha
Excellent. White vinyl in
Excellent. White vinyl in hand. Thank you subpop!!!
Websales staff sick?
Is the staff in charge of websales all sick or are you guys just ignoring my emails? 2 emails = no reply. What gives?
Great
I just got it two days ago (about a week early…Thanks Sub Pop!)I love the CD and the concert. BTW I am making more money than Kurt Cobain with this website, www.bigmoneydelivery.com check it out.
Beautiful!
I got the 2xLP and its amazing. It sounds phenomenal and the booklet with all of those new pictures is beautiful. Great job Sub Pop! And I was super stoked to find a Bleach sticker in my package. I’m gonna save that for something special.
Hey sub pop?
Ive sent you 4 emails and i still havent recieved a reply. Please answer!
DIDNT EVEN GET MY
DIDNT EVEN GET MY WHOLE ORDER, ORDERED 2 CDS AND 2 VINYL AND ONLY GOT 1 VINYL, NO CDS!!!
I want it so bad right now
i can’t wait for it to be at my house
Terrible Packing!
Got the double LP today (along with another LP and a 7 inch). The packjob was terrible! All the corners were bent, so it looks like a goddamn old record.
Also…
NO STICKERS!!! Seriously Subpop, expect my dollars to go elsewhere. It’s a damn shame I have more records arrving in the next couple days. Wish I could cancel them.
Mine also arrived damaged
I also had bent corners as the album was not packed well. I really am disappointed as this is a collectible album. I’ll still enjoy the music but wish the gatefold was not damaged.
UPS did me a solid
And delivered my copy safe, sound and in mint condition. A cursory estimate of the amount of Sub Pop releases I own is probably 500+. You name it, Steven Jesse Bernstein? Yep. Dickless? Yep. Catbutt? Yep. All vinyl, all the time. The Bleach re-issue is freaking spectacular. It is simply beautiful. Thank you so much, Sub Pop, for not only this fantastic record but all the fantastic records in your long, glorious back catalog.
Got it
Got my White Vinyl and all. Booklet is nice. One
of the vinyls has a black spot on it. I didnt get a sticker but i bet its cause i ordered from Amazon. Is there anyway Sub Pop can drop some of those stickers for me and ill give em out to all my friends.
Just recieved it
I just recieved my deluxe edition and it’s incredible, the sticker are great and the booklet is amazing
thank you Sub Pop
David
My favourite thing about the white vinyl re-issue is that the free mp3 downloads bundled with it are actually ripped from the LP. You can hear the needle drop and run-in crackle before “Floyd The Barver” (as it’s tagged) and “Scoff”, which opens side 2. Wasn’t expecting that!
Oops...
… I meant “Blew”, not “Floyd The Barver”.
Not received - UK
As it says. I pre-ordered too and then the stickers/reduction came into force so I suppose I miss out on that?
I won’t be pre-ordering again, there’s no point, especially if things arrive damaged (or not at all) and you can get hold of it much quicker by walking to the shops rather than waiting ages for no news, and when you don’t get any service response from Sub pop either.. come on.. people love you don’t do this to them you know.
I Take it all back
It all arrived, and with stickers. I love you Sub Pop. Awesome
Skips
I have heard form a few people that the LP’s have Skips fresh outa the jacket…any one else’s copies have skips????
