Release Notes:

The third beat happening album. Bret, heather and calvin explore the more sinister aspects of life, with an eye towards the relief that can be found in its simpler pleasures. “melancholy” is a word that has been used to describe this approach, though black candy does include many optimistic moments. Originally a 1989 k release, available on rough trade in the u.k., black candy was re-issued on sub/pop in 1993. Included on here is the original version of “cast a shadow”, covered by yo la tengo and cub. Black candy has been out of print for several years on cd except as a part of the crashing through (klp115) box set of beat happening material. All of the packaging for the cd has been redesigned as six-panel digi-pak to include additional photographs of the band. An exclusive seventh cd-rom features live and video material, including a video for “other side” from black candy.
