Jade Tree has unveiled details, a release date and a sample MP3 for the upcoming retrospective compilation from Lifetime. The influential band played a few East Coast reunion shows earlier this year, after their initial reunion show was canceled along with the rest of the ill-fated Hellfest. In January, the band will also hit some West Coast stops.
The double-CD retrospective, titled Somewhere In The Swamps Of Jersey is due out March 21st, and will be Jade Tree's 100th release. The release includes singles, compilation tracks, covers and demos, but also two versions of their crucial, out-of-print 1993 debut, Background. Disc one's version has been completely remixed while Disc two presents a remaster of the untouched original, complete with the bonus live set. A 52-page book of liner notes, lyrics and over 40 rare photographs completes the package.
A track from the album can be found here: "Starsixtynine."
The band released two full lengths on Jade Tree before splitting up to form Kid Dynamite, Zero Zero and Paint It Black:Jersey's Best Dancers and Hello Bastards .
