[tweetmeme]Originally released in 1993, Star — the debut album from ex-Throwing Muses member Tanya Donelly’s band Belly — will receive its first-ever American vinyl release later this year when Plain Recordings reissues the title on 180-gram vinyl, the label announced on Facebook.
Donelly, also a onetime member of The Breeders, formed Belly in 1991 with bassist Fred Abong, guitarist Tom Gorman and drummer Chris Gorman. The album, which hit No. 2 in the U.K. and featured the modern-rock hits “Feed the Tree” and “Gepetto,” only had been issued on vinyl by 4AD in the U.K.
Plain Recordings has not yet announced a release date for the new pressing.
Below, re-acquaint yourself with the original video for “Feed the Tree.”
