Two CDs. Originally released on vinyl in 2017, this enhanced, 25-song follow-up includes 14 new, previously unreleased demos from the Nuclear Valdez archives. They've been beautifully remastered to benefit from the CD listening experience. The Digipak also includes an 8-page booklet featuring photos from the past, and a tribute to their friend and manager, John Tovar, who was instrumental in their signing with Epic and the national success of bands including The Mavericks and Marilyn Manson, among others. Formed in Miami in 1985, Nuclear Valdez quickly became a prominent force in the local alternative rock scene, which garnered them a record deal with Epic. The band gained national attention with their 1989 debut album, I Am I. They also got noticed for their performance on MTV Unplugged with The Alarm. Their second release, Dream Another Dream, expanded their audience with the single "Shelter." Following a hiatus, the band returned in 2002 with their third studio album, In a Minute All Could Change, marking a shift toward a heavier, grunge-influenced sound. In 2017, Present from the Past arrived with 8 remastered songs on vinyl leading to the complete 25 song "Deluxe" release in 2026.
