The textbook American cult band of the 80s, Violent Femmes captured the essence of teen angst with remarkable precision. 40 years on, their legacy remains strong. Add It Up (1981-1993) documents the trailblazing trios stylistic development as they rose to become one of alt-rocks most commercially-successful acts.

This 23-track compilation includes hits such as Blister in the Sun, American Music, and Gone Daddy Gone, plus live recordings of favorites like Add It Up, and Kiss Off, alongside a trove of demos, B-sides, interstitial voice recordings, and rarities. Available on vinyl for the first time since its brief initial pressing in 1993.
