Sex With An X

Tracks: 'Sex With an X' and 'Roaster.' Formed in Glasgow in 1987, The Vaselines released two singles and one album, then split up in 1989 (the same week their album was released). They might have faded into obscurity but for the intervention of a certain band from Seattle. Nirvana covered three Vaselines songs, helping to fuel a growing after-the-fact appreciation of their seedy, two-and-a-half chord, garage pop manifesto. Twenty plus years on and entirely worth the wait comes 'Sex With an X,' the lead single from the forthcoming album of the same name.
