It’s also packed with unheard demos that range from acoustic jams such as Jack Johnson’s ‘inaudible Melodies’ and ‘Theory Of A Pop Star’ to full-blast studio demos such as ‘Sofa Song’ and ‘Matchbox’ that capture the youthful exuberance of this quintessential indie band. Other features include a 8,000 word sleevenote based on new interviews with the original band members.
