big black - way hap ultimate rarities




this is a bootleg made up of supposed "ultimate rarities" in the form of demos and and songs released on various compilations and some of this and that and the other. there's also a few songs from a band that steve albini was in pre-big black that went by the name stations.

that's gotta be something,yeah?

"at least half of this stuff is just the normal, readily-available versions re-named as "demos" or taken from an alternate release though identical to the album versions. much of what is novel is also trivial. not worth it." -steve albini

  1. I gave it its name all those years go. It comes from Steve Albini saying "goodnight you've all been Way Hap"at the end of a couple of shows. Just in case you're interested.
