Odyshape CD (1981) 
It was the late Kurt Cobain (with some help from labelmates Sonic Youth) who initiated Geffen's reissue of the Raincoats' catalog. And listening to Odyshape, it's easy to see why Cobain loved them so. There's an emotional directness about these songs that hooks you from the start. Mostly you hear ...

Moving CD (1984)
Raincoats CD discography What a wonderful cacophony of sounds! The Raincoats' last record (until their reunion EP of 1996) is a triumph of excitement and intensity equaling that of their previous studio work. Some of these songs are from the live tape and are in sharper (and I'd say better) form here. Yet ...

Raincoats CD (1979) 
Raincoats albums A scrappy blast of ramshackle D.I.Y. pop, the Raincoats' debut self-titled LP was a revelation upon its release in 1979, and it's just as inspiring today. The lineup consisted of Gina Birch, Alan da Silva, Slits drummer Palmolive, and secret weapon Vicky Aspinall on violin, and resulted in one of ...

Kitchen Tapes CD (1983)
Raincoats music CDs Rough, loose-limbed, warm, and exciting, The Kitchen Tapes is everything you'd expect from the Raincoats on-stage. Bolstered by the heavy percussion of Richard Dudanski and Derek Goddard, this recording pulsates, while the band dances around the beat tossing in shards of guitar, vocals, and violin. The liner essay by Greil ...

Looking In The Shadows CD (1996)
Say what you will about Kurt Cobain, his say-so got an awful lot of records reissued. He cited the naïve punk trio the Raincoats as a favorite band, and even invited the group to re-form so they could be the opening act on Nirvana's 1994 world tour -- which, of course, never happened. Original members Gina Birch and Ana de Silva reformed the band anyway, with new members Anne Wood on violin and bass and Heather ...

Moving CD (1984)
What a wonderful cacophony of sounds! The Raincoats' last record (until their reunion EP of 1996) is a triumph of excitement and intensity equaling that of their previous studio work. Some of these songs are from the live tape and are in sharper (and I'd say better) form here. Yet another important record by one of the most important bands of the post-punk era. Reissued by Geffen with extra tracks in 1995. ~ John Dougan
This is part of the Geffen Goldline Series.
